A Sacred Day to Begin Your Journey on Tantra Sadhana App
In Vedic astrology, Guru Pushya Yoga, also known as Guru Pushya Amrit Yog, Gurupushyamrut Yoga, or Guru Pushya Nakshatra Yog, is considered one of the most auspicious and spiritually charged combinations — a great opportunity for new beginnings and endeavours.
Its occurrence in the Adhik Jyeshtha Purushottam Maas of 2026 creates an exceptionally auspicious window to begin your Das Mahavidya Sadhana on the Tantra Sadhana app.
Date and Timing of Guru Pushya Yoga in Adhik Maas 2026
Dates: 21-22 May (Thu-Fri)
Timing: 5:53 AM (Thu, 21 May) to 2:49 AM (Fri, 22 May)
What Is Guru Pushya Yoga?
Guru Pushya Yog occurs when:
The Moon transits through Pushya Nakshatra, one of the most auspicious lunar constellations in Vedic astrology
And the weekday is Thursday (Guruwar), the day of the Guru (Brihaspati, i.e. Jupiter)
Since Guru rules Thursday and Pushya itself is governed by Guru, the day becomes doubly charged with the Guru’s energy.
About Guru and Pushya Nakshatra

The Guru symbolises wisdom, expansion, Divine Grace, ethics, Dharma, sacred knowledge, benevolence, and spiritual upliftment. In Vedic thought, Guru is the force that dispels darkness and reveals higher truths.
Pushya Nakshatra derives from the Sanskrit root ‘Push’, meaning To Nourish, To Strengthen, or To Cause to Flourish.
It is symbolised by a cow's udder, representing nourishment, abundance, sacred sustenance, and spiritual support.
It is praised in the traditional Muhurat Shastra as one of the most auspicious Nakshatras for initiating sacred and beneficial activities. Ancient astrological authorities such as Brihat Samhita, Muhurta Chintamani, Dharma Sindhu, and Kalaprakashika regard Pushya as highly favourable for stable and prosperous undertakings.
The Nakshatra is associated with nourishment, spiritual discipline, protection, and Divine Grace.
The Impact of Guru Pushya Yog
Devguru Brihaspati is the ‘Guru of the Devas’—the supreme celestial counsellor and master of sacred wisdom, who provides the ethical strategy and spiritual guidance necessary for the celestial deities to maintain cosmic order.
As Pushya Nakshatra is ruled by Devguru Brihaspati, Guru Pushya Yoga amplifies its connection to wisdom and sacred growth.
Thus, Guru Pushya Yoga becomes the union of:
Nourishment and wisdom
Prosperity and Dharma
Expansion and protection
Material success and spiritual alignment
Essentially, Guru Pushya Yog is the sacred union of wisdom and auspicious fortune. Thus, actions begun under this influence receive both growth and guidance.
For centuries, householders, spiritual practitioners, astrologers, merchants, kings, and seekers have regarded Guru Pushya Yoga as a sacred period for initiating actions intended to grow steadily and remain protected over time. It is believed to nourish and stabilise the fruits of one’s actions.
This is why people traditionally choose Guru Pushya Yog for:
Buying gold or property
Starting businesses
Opening financial accounts
Receiving spiritual initiations
Commencing Mantra Sadhana
Investing in long-term goals
Beginning the study of scriptures
Traditional Rituals and Practices Performed
Like Guru Purnima, Guru Pushya Yoga is also a special day to honour your Guru and worship deities that embody the Guru Tattva, such as Lord Dakshinamurti, Sri Krishna, and Bhagavan Dattatreya.
In Tantric and Mantra traditions, Guru Pushya Yoga is considered highly favourable for:
Mantra Siddhi beginnings
Yantra and idol consecration
Guru initiation
Commencing a Vrata or Anushthana
Energising spiritual objects
It is the ideal time for an extended chant of a Guru Mantra or Brihaspati Mantra.
Importance of Guru Pushya Yoga in Adhik Jyeshtha Purushottam Maas
Adhik Maas: The Additional Month of Divine Grace
Adhik Maas (also known as Purushottam Maas or Mala Maas) is an extra month added to the Hindu lunar calendar approximately every 32.5 months to synchronise it with the 365.25-day solar year.

Scriptural tradition states that Lord Vishnu named the month after Himself—Purushottam—making it a period dedicated exclusively to Adhyatma (spiritual pursuit). It is believed that spiritual merits (Punya) performed during this time are multiplied manifold due to the direct oversight of the Supreme Being.
Adhik Jyeshth Purushottam Maas: The Peak of Solar Potency
Adhik Jyeshth Purushottam Maas occurs when the extra lunar month coincides with the solar month of Jyeshth, a period defined by maximum solar intensity and the transition into peak summer.
The name Jyeshtha translates to The Eldest or The Greatest, symbolising seniority and mastery, particularly over the Indriyas (senses).
When this month is sanctified as Purushottam Maas, it creates a rare energetic window focused on burning away egoistic impurities through the "fire" of discipline and austerity.
Guru Pushya Yog in Adhik Jyeshtha: The Ultimate Alignment
The occurrence of Guru Pushya Yog during Adhik Jyeshtha is an exceptional astrological event that merges the expansion of Jupiter (Guru) with the nurturing power of the Pushya Nakshatra within a month already dedicated to Lord Vishnu.
This ‘Self-Siddha Muhurat’ transcends standard astrological restrictions, making it the premier time for spiritual initiations (Diksha) and the commencement of long-term Sadhanas.
It represents a rare synchronisation of time where the wisdom of the Guru and the nourishment of the stars align to stabilise one’s Karmic progress and ensure the success of Dharmic endeavours.
A Sacred Day to Begin Your Journey on Tantra Sadhana App
Tantra Sadhana App, created by Himalayan monk Om Swami, offers a systematic way for spiritual seekers interested in Tantra to worship the Das Mahavidyas (10 Wisdom Goddesses of Tantra) in their order, from Ma Kali to Ma Kamalatmika.
Nothing other than your cellphone or tablet is required to complete the app’s journey, as it follows the path of Divyachar, where all worship is mental.
This is Tantra simplified for the modern world. All mantras and rituals are kept intact as per the scriptures.
As all the rituals are curated by Om Swami and coded into the app, along with awakened chants recorded in His own voice, there is no question of making mistakes in Sadhana. Therefore, even a personal Guru is not required to complete the journey.
The app is entirely cost-free as well as ad-free, with the provision for Sadhaks to offer online Dakshina voluntarily. All these factors make the app and the Tantric worship of the Divine Mother accessible to all Sadhaks, including beginners and adepts.
On 21 May 2026 (Thursday),Guru Pushya Yoga in Adhik Jyeshtha Maas offers an exceptionally auspicious window to begin your life-changing spiritual journey on the app.
Begin your worship with Ma Kali, the first of the Das Mahavidyas. Be initiated into Her awakened Tantric mantra and Tantric fire offerings, perform Her Shav Sadhana, and awaken Her Energy in your life in just 33 days.
You will then unlock the world of Ma Tara, the second Mahavidya.
This Guru Pushya Yog, amplify your spiritual journey by walking the path of Tantra.
