Pradosh Vrat September 2024
Pradosh Vrat has a special significance in Hinduism. This fast is observed every month on the Trayodashi Tithi of Krishna Paksha and Shukla Paksha and is dedicated to Lord Shiva.
Devotees must know that the word Pradosh means evening, i.e. the time of meeting of day and night (twilight), hence during this holy hour, special worship of Lord Shiva is done. Additionally, as this fast depends on the positioning of the moon, its date and time keeps on changing twice every month.
