नाग पंचमीNag Panchami

Also called Naga Panchami · Nagula Chavithi

Milk offered at the anthill and at the serpent stones, and no earth turned that day.

When it falls

The fifth tithi of the bright fortnight of Śrāvaṇa.

The tithi, not a date — the calendar date is a pañchāṅga reckoning and differs by region. Check your local pañchāṅga for this year.

The Reading

The Nava Nāga Stotram, which names the nine; the Sarpa Sūktam; and the Manasā Devī stotras where she is kept.
