Ratha Saptami 2023
Ratha Saptami or Rathasapthami (Sanskrit: रथसप्तमी or Magha Saptami) is a Hindu festival that falls on the seventh day (Saptami) in the bright half (Shukla Paksha) of the Hindu month Maagha. It is symbolically represented in the form of the Sun God Surya turning his Ratha (Chariot) drawn by seven horses (representing seven colours) towards the northern hemisphere, in a north-easterly direction. It also marks the birth of Surya and hence celebrated as Surya Jayanti (the Sun-god’s birthday).

Ratha Saptami Puja Vidhanam in Telugu
రథసప్తమి ముందు రోజు రాత్రి ఉపవాసం ఉండి ఉదయం సూర్యోదయానికి ముందుగానే స్నానం చెయ్యాలి. పురుషులు ఏడు జిల్లేడు ఆకులు, మహిళలు ఏడు చిక్కుడు ఆకులు తల, భుజాలపై ఉంచుకుని ఈ కింద మంత్రాన్ని చదువుతూ స్నానం చేయాలి.
|| జననీ త్వం హి లోకానం సప్తమీ సప్తసప్తికే, సప్తవ్యాహృతికే దేవి ! సమస్తే సూర్యమాతృకే ||
“సప్తాశ్యముల గల ఓ సప్తమీ! నీవు సకల భూతాలకు, లోకాలకు జననివి. సూర్యుడికి తల్లివైన నీకు నమస్కారం. అని ఈ మంత్రం అర్థం.
రథ సప్తమినాడు ఆవు నెతితో దీపారాధన చెయడం శ్రేయస్కరం. రథసప్తమి రోజు సూర్యకిరణాలు పడే చోట తూర్పు దిక్కున తులసికోట పక్కగా ఆవు పేడతో అలికి, దానిపై పిండితో పద్మం వేసి, పొయ్యి పెట్టి పిడకలు అంటించి, పాలు పొంగించి, ఆ పాలల్లో కొత్తబియ్యం, బెల్లం, నెయ్యి, ఏలకులు వేసి పరమాన్నం తయారు చేస్తారు. తులసికోట ఎదురుగా చిక్కుడు కాయలతో రథం చేసి చిక్కుడాకులపై పరమాన్నం ఉంచి దేవుడికి నైవేద్యం సమర్పిస్తారు. రథసప్తమి నాడు దేవుడికి ఎరుపు రంగు పూలతో పూజిస్తే మంచిది. చిమ్మిలి దానం ఇస్తే సకల శుభాలు చేకూరుతాయి.
