Aaj Ka Panchang, August 9, 2025: Raksha Bandhan, the holy festival of siblings, will be celebrated today, on August 9 this year. On this day, sisters lovingly tie a rakhi on their brothers’ wrists as a symbol of protection and affection. In Hindu tradition, performing rituals at an auspicious time holds great significance, and Raksha Bandhan is no exception—it is believed that tying a rakhi at this auspicious time brings blessings, prosperity, and harmony.
According to the Panchang, the full moon date of Raksha Bandhan will start on August 8, at 2:12 pm, and the date will end on August 9, at 1:24 pm.
According to the Udayatithi, Raksha Bandhan will be celebrated this time on 9 August 2025, Saturday.
Shubh Muhurat To Tie Rakhi
- This time, Brahma Muhurta will be available for tying Rakhi on Raksha Bandhan, which will be from 4:22 am to 5:02 am.
- Apart from this, Abhijeet Muhurta will be available, which will be from 12:17 pm to 12:53 pm.
- The special time to tie Rakhi is from 5:47 am to 1:24 pm.
On the sacred occasion of Raksha Bandhan, the ritual begins with sisters applying a Tilak on their brothers’ foreheads, followed by placing a few grains of rice. They then tie the Raksha Sutra (rakhi) around the wrist and offer sweets to their brothers. After this, sisters perform Aarti to bless their brothers, while brothers, in return, present thoughtful gifts as a token of love and appreciation.
