Day 7

Saptami (Seventh Day)

Saptami marks the completion of the first critical week of the fortnight. It helps souls transition smoothly out of karmic loops of attachment, and clears path-blocking obstacles in the lives of living descendants.

Section context

Shashthi to Dashami Tithis

Namaste. As we continue our journey through Pitru Paksha, think of these middle days as a deeply personal conversation with your lineage. Just as every family member has a unique place in your heart, our ancient traditions assign specific tithis so no soul is left unremembered.
