About the Hindu Day of Ahoi Ashtami

Ends: Oct 17, 2022
DESCRIPTION:
Ahoi Ashtami traditionally occurs mid-fall in October or November, a mother-son observance in the Hindu faith.
Mothers of sons awaken before dawn, place pristine water into a mud container called a kora karawa and pray to the goddess Ahoi. The women then fast (vrat) for the entire day. Mothers believe fasting coupled with prayers endows their male children with good luck. At nightfall, the mother’s fast is broken with fruit. She continues to pray, offering pure water from the kora karawa to the stars in the sky and making an offering of sweets to a wall painted with the image of the goddess.
PLEASE NOTE:
We use the Indian civil calendar, the official holiday calendar in India. The Hindu faith has many calendars, each specific to different regions and tribes, with dates and celebrations marked by differing positions of the sun, moon, and stars. Names of months and holidays and the corresponding dates in the Gregorian Calendar may vary widely from one calendar to the next. Determine the proper calendar before attending local events.
