Bada Mangal Dates 2026: In Hindu religion, Tuesday of Jyeshtha month has special significance, which is known as ‘Bada Mangal’ or ‘Budhwa Mangal’. The year 2026 is going to bring happiness for Hanuman devotees. This year, such a rare and wonderful coincidence is taking place which will be seen after 19 years. Usually, there are 4 or 5 major Mars in the month of Jyeshtha, but this time their number will be double i.e. a total of 8. Let us know the reason, dates and religious significance of Bada Mangal for this amazing coincidence.
Why is a special conjunction of 8 major Mars taking place?
According to the Panchang, in the year 2026, Jyeshtha month will start from 2nd May and will continue till 29th June. A special astronomical situation is being created during this period, because Adhik Maas is also falling during this period from 17th May to 15th June. Since both the Chief Jyeshtha and Adhya Jyeshtha are meeting together, there will be a total of 8 Tuesdays between May 2 and June 29. In religious scriptures, Adhik month is considered to be the month of Lord Vishnu, and Hanuman ji is a part of Lord Shiva and an ardent devotee of Shri Ram, hence this coincidence is considered very fruitful from spiritual point of view.
