Bhadrapada is the sixth month in the Hindu lunar calendar, typically falling between August and September. It is considered an auspicious time for various religious activities and festivals. The month is associated with the Bhadra constellation, which is believed to bring good fortune and prosperity. During Bhadrapada, many devotees observe fasts and perform rituals to honor deities such as Lord Ganesha and Lord Vishnu. The festival of Ganesh Chaturthi is celebrated in this month, marking the birth of Lord Ganesha. This period is also significant for agricultural activities, as it coincides with the monsoon season in India.
