The Sun is in onerasi for a month and transits through to the next rasi in the next month and so in. Like this the sun covers all the 12 Rasis in a year. As per the Indian calendar, the Sun moves into the Makara Rasi on January 14th or 15th. This movement of the Sun into the Makara Rasi is called as Makara Sankranti. This event is part of the annual celestial calendar. Q. If the sun is moving every month into the next Rasi, what is so special the Sun moving into the Makara Rasi? The sun is constantly moving between the Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn which is called in the Indian context as Uttarayanam and Dakshinayanam. Makara Sankranti falls in the period when the Sun, which is in the Tropic of Capricon in the Southern Hemisphere, has started moving northwards towards us in India. Which means we start having longer days. We are starting to come out of the cold season to warmth and it is this Change, new beginning of the seasonal cycle that we celebrate.

  • Exploring Lord Shaasta
    Exploring Lord Shaasta This is a very unique discussion of a concept with roots steeped in Indian spirituality and philosophy yet shrouded in mystery over several thousands of years. The concept of Lord Shaasta, commonly known as Ayyappan or Ayyanaar is seen in all its glory. Who is Shaasta? "Antah Pravishta Shaastaa Jananaam Sarvaathma | Sarvaa Praja Yatraikam Bhavanti|", or ​ ​ "Where all are united, He who has entered within, that are born, and is the self of all, is beyond comprehension, He is Shaasta the ruler of all things”. Similarly, in another verse, "Antah Pravishta Shaastaa Jananaam Ekasanbahudaa Vichaara | Shatha Shukraani Yatraikam Bhavanti|". This is what Taittiriya Aranyaka of the Krishna branch of Yajur Veda says in verses 3-11-1 and 3-11-2. Who is this Shaasta? We need to start from the basics to understand this Lord, also called Vipra Poojya (Worshipped by the Vedas). The basic premise is the premise of Advaita, ie. the body, mind, world and everything understood by the five senses, thoughts, feelings and memories is unreal, figments of the mind and is the delusion called Maaya, revolving around a false sense of identification with the finite body and mind, also called Ego or Ahankaara. Transcending this Maaya, one kills the Ahankaara and the unreal 'world' to reveal the true Self (Atman), which is infinite, eternal truth (Sat), fundamental consciousness (Chit) and pure unalloyed bliss (Aanandam). This Self is very much the Absolute, Parabrahman, which gives rise to the entire universe through its 'playful act' of Maaya, and thus as the playful source, is called 'Lalitha Ambika', the Universal Mother.

It takes place in January (Malayalam month Makarom 1st day)evening (Makara Sankrama Sandhya) – the time when the Dakshinayana Punyakalam ends and Uttarayan or Uttarayana Punyakalam starts.
