Rohini Nakshatra: Thursday, 29 October 2026

The next twelve months

Month by month

What is Rohini Nakshatra?

Rohini is the star Krishna was born under, at midnight on the waning Ashtami; that day is Krishna Jayanthi. The monthly Rohini is not a fast day of its own; those born under Rohini use these dates for an archanai on their birth-star day. Each date here is the day the star holds at midday; when it holds at two middays running, both days are shown.

What can you do on Rohini star day?

The monthly Rohini is not a fast day and has no rite of its own. For those born under Rohini it is the monthly birth-star day: a visit to the temple and an archanai in their own name and star at the Krishna shrine is all it asks.

  • Bathe in the morning and light the lamp at home
  • An archanai at the Krishna shrine, giving your name and star
  • If you can, feed someone or give a small gift

Krishna Jayanthi falls in Aavani: most homes keep it on the waning Ashtami, and Vaishnavas keep Sri Jayanthi on the Rohini star day. It is a fast day, with an evening puja for Krishna.
