Raksha Bandhan 2025 Date
Raksha Bandhan will be celebrated on 9th August 2025 (Saturday). The full moon of Shravan month (Shravan Purnima) begins on 8th August (Friday) at 2:12 PM and ends on 9th August (Saturday) at 1:21 PM.
As per the tradition of following the Udaya Tithi (full moon during sunrise), Raksha Bandhan will be celebrated on 9th August.
On this day, sisters tie a rakhi on their brothers’ wrists and pray for their happiness and well-being. In return, brothers give gifts and vow to protect their sisters.
This year, there is no shadow of Bhadra on Raksha Bandhan, which is great news. Although Bhadra does fall on Shravan Purnima, it will end before sunrise on 9th August. So, you can joyfully celebrate Raksha Bandhan on 9th August until the afternoon without any worries.
