Aadi, the fourth month in the Tamil Calendar is the most auspicious month. It generally falls between mid-July to mid-August. The month of Aadi marks the beginning of the festival season that extends up to December.

The month of Aadi is auspicious for many reasons. It marks the beginning of the night of Devas. It is the month when Aandal was born. But most importantly it is the month where Goddess Shakthi is celebrated, and her power is at its peak.

Why Aadi is very auspicious for worshipping Devi?

As was previously said, the month of Aadi marks the start of the festive season, which is characterised by the celebration of magnificent fasts and festivals. However, it is noteworthy to note that the month of Aadi is already jam-packed with numerous fasts and festivals. Apart from the fact that the entire Aadi is auspiciously observed, specific days seem to be observed with added auspiciousness. AadiAmaavaasai, Aadippooram, Aadipperukku, Aadicchevvaay, AadiVeLLi, and AadipPaurNami (Guru PoorNimaa or ViyaasaPaurNami), come to mind when we think of the name Aadi. There appear to be several additional fortunate days in the month of Aadi; these are only the most well-known ones.

AADIPOORAM
Aadippooram is said to be the birth star of the female Vaishnavaite saint [aal(z)vaar], AaNdaaL. One other Vaishnavaite saint Periyaal(z)vaar found AaNdaaL as a baby by the side of thuLasi maadam (a raised altar with the basil plant) on a Saturday when the asterism of Pooram and the fourteenth phase (sadhurtthasi) of the waxing moon were prevalent in the month of Aadi of the Hindu year, NaLa.

It is said that Goddess Umaadhevi came of age on the day of Aadippooram.This is the simple way of expressing the astrological finding; as we saw before, the month of Aadi is dominated by the energy of Sakthi. However, the Brammoatchavam Festival is observed when the Theertthoatchavam occurs on the day of Aadippooram at the Amman Temples or the Siva Temples, which have a specific shrine for AmbaaL.Aadipporam falls in line with the fact that the month of Aadi is auspicious for Devi.

AADIAMMAVASAI
It is auspicious to do Siraattham, a ritual including the offering of sacrifices for the manes (pithir). Sons and daughters who are not married and do not have a father may observe fasting on this day in certain families. The siraattham rite is now performed in groups in a public area while being guided by a priest or a religious elder.

Generally speaking, siraattham can be performed on any day of Amaavaasai; nevertheless, why does Aadi Amaavaasai take on a special significance?

The sun begins its southern trip on the first day of the month of Aadi, as was previously observed. Yamaloaham and Pithirloaham, the God of Death and the manes, respectively, have homes in the South; AadiAmaavaasai just so happens to be the first new moon day to fall during the sun’s voyage south. With regard to the God of Death and the manes, the new moon day in the month of Aadi thus appears to have a specific meaning.

AADICHEVVAY
(Aadi Chevvai) are seen as being extremely auspicious, and many women go to temples honouring Amman, Durga, Parvati, Shakti, and other Goddesses. In South India, Tuesday and Friday is dedicated to Shakti worship in many places. In Tamil Nadu, the month of Aadi is considerably more favorable.

On Aadi Chevvai day in the month, single women visit Shakti (the feminine goddess) shrines and make various vows. Some ladies follow a complete or partial fast that particular day. It is commonly held that worshipping the goddess Shakti in any of her manifestations during the Aadi month can aid single ladies in finding the best partners or life mates.Every month on Tuesdays, special delicious foods like the Thalagam Kuzhambu, a version of the well-known Sambar dish, are made in many Tamil houses.

AADIPERUKKU

The rainy season begins in the month of Aadi. Therefore, the rivers overflow with water. The river is revered as a mother because she provides the life-giving water. The eighteenth day of the month of Aadi, is said to bring the tide of the first rains; it is observed as Aadipperukku whereby thanksgiving prayers are offered to rivers. On this day, God’s grace fills the sky like rain, flows like the tide, and provides joy to the farmers. During this month, farmers begin their job.

Married ladies replace their marital yellow string on this festive occasion since the month of Aadi is auspicious for the worship of Devi and rivers are regarded as mothers. Devi Kaamaatchi is claimed to have performed penance and wedded Lord Siva in the month of Aadi. This incident makes the month of Aadi more suitable for changing the outdated marital yellow string than it was before.

AADIVELLI 

A Friday is considered as very auspicious for prayers, by the Hindu community as a whole. Generally, Fridays are said to be very auspicious for AmbaaL, Muruhan and Vinaayahar. Therefore, it is natural that in the month of Aadi, which is considered to be auspicious for the worship of Devi, the Fridays become all the more auspicious. Hence, special abishegams and prayers are performed for Devi on all Fridays occurring in the month of Aadi.

AADIPOURNAMI 

We have observed that the full moon day is fortunate for Mother Goddess worship.In astrology, the position of the sun is used to predict about the state of affairs of one’s father, and the moon about one’s mother. The full moon day that falls in Aadi month deserves to be a very auspicious day for holding special prayers for Mother Goddess since Aadi is a great month for Sakthi worship.

I admire and value having to observe some of the ceremonies when the significance of nature and our ancestors is solely acknowledged. This straightforward habit of thankfulness is both lovely and remarkable. To appreciate the relevance of each of these events, it is necessary to comprehend their significance.
