Krishna Janmashtami 2023 is just around the corner, and it holds great significance among Hindus worldwide. This auspicious festival is celebrated by Krishna Bhakta's everywhere to commemorate the birth anniversary of Lord Shri Krishna. According to the Hindu calendar, Krishna Janmashtami falls on the Ashtami Tithi of Krishna Paksha in the month of Bhadrapada. Notably, Lord Krishna manifested on this earthly realm during the Rohini Nakshatra, further enhancing the importance of this Nakshatra. This year, devotees will observe Krishna Janmashtami over two consecutive days, on September 6 and 7, 2023.
Why this festival will be celebrated for two days in 2023?
The celebration of Janmashtami extends over two days this year due to the Ashtami Tithi commencing on September 6 at 03:37 PM and concluding on September 7, 2023, at 04:14 PM. It's worth noting that Lord Krishna's birth occurred on the Ashtami Tithi. Additionally, Rohini Nakshatra begins on September 6 at 09:20 AM and concludes on September 7 at 10:25 AM. Therefore, taking both Ashtami Tithi and Rohini Nakshatra into account, Janmashtami will be observed on September 6, 2023, while the Dahi Handi celebration will follow on September 7, 2023.
