The significance of Chaitra — Goddess Durga & Lord Rama
Chaitra opens the Hindu lunar year. Its bright first day is the new year across much of India — Gudi Padwa, Ugadi, Cheti Chand — and its first nine days are Chaitra (Vasanta) Navratri, ending in Rama's birth at Ram Navami. It is a spring month of beginnings: the neem-and-jaggery of Ugadi tasting the year's bitter and sweet together.
Rituals of Chaitra
- Chaitra Navratri — nine days of Durga worship and fasting

- Gudi Padwa / Ugadi / Cheti Chand new-year rites
