Gupt Navratri, also known as Ashadha Gupt Navratri, is a special time for devotees of Goddess Durga. This lesser-known yet highly revered festival falls twice a year, and in 2024, it begins today, July 6, and concludes on Monday, July 15. The nine-day celebration offers devotees an opportunity to seek blessings from the nine forms of Durga, known as the Navadurga. During this time, devotees fervently offer prayers and seek the blessings of Durga Mata. Fasting is also a common practice during these nine days.

This year, the recommended Ghatasthapana Muhurta, the auspicious time to establish the Kalash (pot) for the puja, falls between 5:28 am and 10:06 am on July 6. Pratipada Tithi begins at 4:26 am the same day and it ends at 4:26 am on July 7.
