Masi Magam, an auspicious and important festival, celebrated in a special manner by the people of Tamil Nadu falls on March 7th, 2012. Masi Magam marks one of the most powerful Full Moons of the year when the Full Moon aligns with the star Magha (”Regulus”) in the sign of Leo. This alignment occurs only once a year and facilitates the descent or visit of heavenly beings to the earth plane.
Significance of Masi Magam
Masi Magam falls in the Tamil month of Masi (Feb – Mar) and is an event of great significance, as your karmic baggage gets reduced to a great extent on this auspicious day. It is considered that the divine beings come in their astral forms to purify both their own karma and the karma of the human race. Not only do divine beings come, but also as Magha is ruled by the ancestors, you can receive assistance from your departed relatives on this day.
Masi Magam 2012 is a great occasion to get rid of the negative effects of karma in you. Devotees can take this excellent opportunity to purify their karma with the blessings of the almighty and to get encircled by the rays of positive energy of the divine power!

At the Kumbeswarar Temple, Kumbakonam, the energies of the Temple and the Temple Tank become increased with the Magha Full Moon influences. The waters of the holiest rivers mix to energize this “Holy Dip”. Gods and Goddesses, Rishis, Siddhas, other Celestials and even our Ancestors in the ethereal form are said to congregate at the Kumbakonam sacred temple tank for the annual bathing occasion to become re-energized. This ancient spot is considered to be the origin of the human species!
Purify Your Karma Through The Holy Water Dip Ritual
On the auspicious day of Masi Magam 2012, idols of deities are taken from their holy sanctums in a procession for a holy dip in the river. Offering prayers and taking bath in holy rivers like Ganges, Cauvery and others is believed to be a holy ritual to wash away the karma in oneself.

Thai Poosam 2012, the day of Lord Muruga, falls on Feb 7th! This festival falls on the ‘Poosam’ star in the month of ‘Thai’ (January – February) and the energy is ripe for spiritual ascension and development.
“Poosam” or “Pushya” is considered by many to be the most auspicious star for spiritual development as Pushya means “nurture”. The deity associated with Pushya is Brihaspati, the ‘Guru’ or Teacher.
Thai Poosam 2012 – What is the Speciality?
This year, Thai Poosam falls on Tuesday, Muruga’s day. Moreover, the planet Jupiter in Aries is in quadrant to the Moon in Cancer, which is a significant placement. The effects or the influence of this placement is related to power, authority, providential help, wealth and foreign trips related with profession.
This auspicious Full Moon occurs when the Moon is in its own sign Cancer. As per expert astrologers, when Moon is powerful it is the receiver of more fortunes than any other planet, that is why many auspicious Yogas (fortune planetary alignment) are associated with the Moon on the day of Thai Poosam.
2 Gifts to Be Honored on Thai Poosam
There are 2 Gifts that we usually honour on Thai Poosam. One is the Vel given by the Goddess Shakti to her son Muruga which represents the divine feminine power to awaken higher consciousness and the second is the ultimate gift of grace- the Light Body- given to Swami Ramalingam.
The Vel
Life is a drama and the Shakti of the Vel gives the power to think and the power to act. The Vel is a device used to kill ignorance or the karmic mindset by dissolving karmic impressions. It pierces through the veils of ego, maya and karma and allows you to have a more productive, more rewarding life. Lord Muruga’s divine feminine weapon dispels the darkness of our lower human consciousness to allow the gateway of heavenly, superior mind-set to unfold and flood in our brain.
How Lord Muruga Received Vel?
The real meaning of the myths of Muruga has been all but forgotten. The classic myth telling of the triumph of light is the story of Lord Muruga and the gift of the ‘Vel’. Once there was a demon named Tarakasura who kept bothering the sages and saints. Lord Muruga was called upon by his parents Lord Shiva and Parvati to destroy the fiend.
The young Lord Muruga set off with the blessings of his parents and he was gifted with 12 weapons, eleven of which were given by his father Lord Shiva and the twelfth was the Vel or lance given by his mother Parvati. Lord Muruga was victorious over Tarakasura on the Poosam Nakshatra day in the Tamil month of Thai.
Swami Ramalingam and the Light Body
Thai Poosam is the day on which the great Tamil Saint Swami Ramalinga ascended, or made his final merger with the Jyoti Light of Lord Shiva triumphing over the darkness. He was able to transcend the limited physical body and limited mind.
He lived and maintained his body of light for 1 – 1.5 years for all to witness. On the Pushya star and Full Moon day, he made his final merger with the light complete and physically disappeared from the earth plane. No traces of his body were ever found.
Thai Poosam is a very powerful day to pray to the Vel, the eminent spear in hand of Lord Muruga that bestows grace and to Lord Muruga for destruction of all the enemies, diseases and debts. Connect and Attract More Light of Intelligence in order to strengthen your inner powers and clear the path to success.
