Home Lord Shiva Questions how many sombar are there in 2025 sawan month

Answer in Details
In the context of Lord Shiva, the month of Sawan (also called Shravan) holds great significance, as Mondays (Somvar) during this month are especially sacred for Shiva devotees. Devotees observe Sawan Somvar Vrat and offer prayers to Lord Shiva.

The exact number of Mondays (Somvar) in Sawan month can vary each year based on the Hindu lunar calendar and regional calendars (North Indian or South Indian traditions). For 2025, according to the North Indian calendar, Sawan month is expected to begin on July 9, 2025, and end on August 5, 2025.

The Mondays (Somvar) during Sawan 2025 are:

1. 14 July 2025
2. 21 July 2025
3. 28 July 2025
4. 4 August 2025

So, there are four Sawan Somvar in 2025.

These days are considered highly auspicious for Shiva worship, and devotees often observe fasts, offer special prayers, and visit Shiva temples on these Mondays.
