Nag Panchami
Nag Panchami is a Hindu festival celebrated in honor of Nagas, or serpents. It falls on the fifth day of the lunar month of Shravana, usually in July or August. Devotees worship Naga deities by offering milk, flowers, and prayers at temples or in their homes. The festival symbolizes the importance of snakes in nature and their role in the cycle of life.
On this day, many people also observe fasting and perform rituals to seek protection from snake bites and to ensure the well-being of their families. Nag Panchami highlights the reverence for nature and the belief in the spiritual significance of snakes in Hindu culture.
