Sawan 2027 (also called Shravan Maas / Shravana Masam / Sawan Somwar Month) falls on Tuesday, 3 August 2027. Shravana is the month of Shiva. The association comes from the Samudra Manthana: Shiva swallowed the Halahala poison to save creation, and the devas poured river water over him to cool the burning — every Shravana Monday repeats that abhisheka. The month is kept with Somvar fasts, daily Linga worship and, in the north, the Kanwar Yatra. It also carries Nag Panchami, Hariyali Teej, Shravana Purnima and Varalakshmi Vratam within it, which makes it the densest festival month of the year. Primary observance: Monday fast with abhisheka of milk, curd, honey, ghee and river water, Bilva patra archana and Rudrabhisheka. Recommended muhurat: Amanta Sawan Somvar (Andhra, Telangana, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Gujarat): 9 Aug · 16 Aug · 23 Aug · 30 Aug 2027 · Purnimanta Sawan Somvar (Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Delhi): 19 Jul · 26 Jul · 2 Aug · 9 Aug · 16 Aug 2027.

Regional Variations of Sawan 2027
Amanta reckoning (Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Gujarat): Shravana runs 3 August to 31 August 2027 with four Somvars. Nitya Panchangam publishes the Amanta month as primary, which is the South Indian convention. Purnimanta reckoning (Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Delhi, Haryana): Shravan runs 19 July to 17 August 2027 with five Somvars, and the Kanwar Yatra therefore falls in late July. Kerala keeps the solar month Karkidakam over the same weeks with its own Ramayana masam tradition. The month is the same; only the reckoning differs — follow your family or temple tradition.
