Pradosh Vrat and Masik Shivratri 2027 Dates

Pradosh is the trayodashi (thirteenth tithi) of each fortnight, and the vrat is kept for Shiva in the evening twilight, the pradosh kaal. When it falls on a Monday it is called Som Pradosh, on a Tuesday Bhaum Pradosh, and on a Saturday Shani Pradosh. Many people give these three more weight than an ordinary Pradosh.

2027 has 25 Pradosh days, and five of them are Shani Pradosh.

Masik Shivratri 2027

Masik (monthly) Shivratri falls on the Krishna paksha trayodashi or chaturdashi of every month. Several of them land on the same day as a Pradosh this year.

The Pradosh puja is done after sunset, in roughly the hour and a half around dusk. Bel leaves, water or milk abhishek and a lamp are the basics. People who fast eat after the evening puja.

Each date links to its day on the monthly calendar, where the tithi end time and Rahu kaal are listed too.
