Panchami Tithi

Panchami is the fifth day of the lunar fortnight. It is a day of great wisdom, expansion, and the hidden powers of nature.

Symbolism and Meaning

Panchami represents the five senses and the five elements. It is a day where the bridge between the material and the mystical is strongest. It signifies the flowering of knowledge and the protection of natural order.

Ruling Deity: The Nagas (Serpent Gods)

The presiding deities of Panchami are the Nagas, the divine serpent gods. Nagas represent the hidden secrets of the earth and the deep subconscious wisdom. Worshipping the Nagas on this day (as in Naga Panchami) is believed to grant protection from poison (both physical and mental) and provide the native with keen foresight.
