Shani Amavasya 2025: When is Shanishari Amavasya in August?

Shani Amavasya signifies the combination of two elements from the Panchang: Amavasya Tithi and Shani Vaar. In simple terms, Shani Amavasya occurs when Amavasya falls on a Saturday. This day is dedicated to Lord Shani Dev, the God of Justice.

Shani Amavasya is a rare occurrence that happens only a few times each year and is considered auspicious for those troubled by the negative influences of the planet Saturn.
