Happy Maha Shivratri 2023: Maha Shivratri or Mahashivratri falls on February 18. Celebrate the Hindu festival by sharing auspicious wishes, images, messages, and greetings with your loved ones on Facebook, WhatsApp and other social media platforms.

Maha Shivratri or Mahashivratri, which literally translates to the great night of Lord Shiva, is one of the biggest and most auspicious Hindu festivals celebrated with much pomp. On this auspicious day, it is believed that Lord Shiva and Maa Parvati got married. Hence, it holds immense importance in the Hindu religion. This auspicious occasion is observed on the 14th day of the dark fortnight of the Hindu month of Phalguna, typically falling in late February or early March. This year, it falls on February 18. Devotees observe a fast, worship Lord Shiva and Maa Parvati, visit temples, prepare special bhog, and chant 'Om Namah Shivaya'. Young girls also keep fast on Maha Shivratri to wish for a groom like Lord Shiva.
