Religious Importance of Bhadrapad Purnima
Full Moon day (Purnima) is always regarded as holy in Hinduism.

In 2025, the Purnima tithi will begin at 1:41 AM on 7th September and end at 11:38 PM on the same day. The auspicious time for a holy bath is from 4:31 AM to 5:16 AM.

Lunar Eclipse on Bhadrapad Purnima 2025
This year, Bhadrapad Purnima coincides with a lunar eclipse, making it more significant. This will be the last lunar eclipse of 2025 and will be visible across India. The Sutak period (inauspicious phase) will start at 12:00 noon and last until the end of the eclipse at around 1:00 AM late night. Hence, all rituals, puja and donations should be completed before the Sutak begins.
Significance of Sutak Period
The Sutak period holds great importance during any eclipse. It is considered inauspicious for performing puja, cooking, or starting new work. Pregnant women, children and elderly are usually exempted from strict rules. After the eclipse ends, devotees should take a bath, clean their homes, and donate to the needy. This is believed to purify the environment and remove negative effects of the eclipse.
Beginning of Shraddha Paksha
Bhadrapad Purnima also marks the beginning of the Shraddha Paksha (Pitru Paksha). On this day, rituals and donations are performed for the peace of ancestors. However, this particular Shraddha is not considered part of Pitru Paksha. People whose loved ones passed away on a Purnima day can perform special Mahalaya Shraddha on Amavasya as well. Thus, this day has a deep spiritual significance.
