Mauni Amavasya, also known as Maghi Amavasya, is a significant Hindu observance falling on January 18, 2026, during the month of Magha.

The day includes rituals such as charity, offering Arghya to the Sun, and prayers believed to bring peace, prosperity, and relief from troubles. This year, auspicious yogas like Shiva Vas Yoga enhance the spiritual significance of the day.
