Deity: Lord Surya (Surya Devta), the radiant Sun God

About the Puja: Makar Sankranti marks the day Surya Dev enters the zodiac sign of Makar (Capricorn). It is one of the few Hindu festivals fixed to a solar date, falling on the 14th or 15th of January every year. The day signals the end of winter and the beginning of warmer, brighter days. Tradition holds that from this day onward, Surya begins his uttarayana journey, the northern movement that brings light, warmth, and new life to the earth. Devotees bathe in the Ganga, offer arghya to the rising sun, and donate sesame and jaggery to the needy.

Our verified Vedic priests perform the puja with the Aditya Hridayam, the powerful Surya stotra. Surya mantras and Gayatri Mantra are chanted in their full prescribed count. Arghya, the sacred water offering, is given to the rising sun. Families book this puja for confidence, for the protection of fathers, for healing of the lungs, and for the steady strength that only Surya provides. Muhurat is taken fresh from the Panchang.
