Vat Purnima 2025 Tithi: Vat Savitri Vrat is observed twice a year. The first time on Jyeshtha Amavasya and the second time on Purnima day. On both these occasions, married women worship the Vat tree with full devotion and pray for the long life of their husbands by circumambulating it.

Importance of Vat Purnima Vrat
According to mythological belief, when Satyavan fell unconscious in the forest, Savitri laid him down under the Vat tree and gave him coolness by fanning him with a bamboo fan. Remembering the same tradition, the fasting women first fan the Vat tree, and then pray for their husbands’ long life and unbroken good fortune. Later they come home and wash their husband’s feet and fan him and receive his blessings.
