Nautapa 2026: Nine Hottest Days Marked by Astronomical and Cultural Significance

Nautapa, observed from May 25 to June 2, 2026, marks nine of the hottest days in North India, rooted in Hindu astronomical tradition when the sun enters the Rohini Nakshatra. Scientifically, this period coincides with the sun's near-perpendicular position over the region, causing intense heat and low humidity. Traditionally, it is considered auspicious for charity, especially donating seasonal fruits and grains, believed to bring blessings and help cope with the heat. The term gains renewed attention annually amid rising temperatures.
