Somavara (Monday) Is Especially Auspicious for Worshipping Lord Siva

In particular, Somavara (Monday) is an especially auspicious day to worship Lord Siva, and the Somavaras occurring in Kartika Masa are very important days for performing sadhana. The remaining Somavaras are Oct 30, Nov 6, and Nov 13. Somavara is the day of the moon (Soma), and white attracts the positive energy of the moon, so it is very good to wear white clothes in cotton or silk on Somavara while performing sadhana. In addition, the Kartika Masa Pournami (full moon day) on Nov 5 is highly auspicious.

Especially on these sacred days, one can do meditation, sing bhajans, or perform extra japa of ones guru mantra. One can also chant the Siva Panchakshari Mantra ("Om namah sivaya") or Siva Sakti Panchakshari Mantra ("Om hrim namah sivaya"), either 108 or 1008 times. This is also an excellent time to chant Sri Mrutyunjaya Mantra for healing any kind of disease or health problem. If it is possible, practicing silence and fasting or taking light, sattwic food will be very beneficial.

Those who have a Siva Lingam may wish to do puja by offering water, flowers, vibhuti, milk, yogurt, ghee, sugar, and/or honey. The offerings can be spooned onto the Siva Lingam (using a pure puja spoon only) while chanting "Om namah sivaya," "Om hrim namah sivaya," or Sri Mrutyunjaya Mantra.
