Nag panchami 2025: Nag Panchami is a major festival of Hinduism, which will be celebrated on 29 July 2025 this year. On this day, especially Nag Devta and Lord Shiva are worshiped. According to mythology, the use of iron and items made from it is considered taboo on this auspicious occasion. Let’s know the religious and astrological beliefs behind it.
What is the tradition of Nag Panchami
The festival of Nag Panchami is celebrated with reverence and devotion in the whole country on the fifth day of Shukla Paksha of Sawan month. This day is considered to be the most auspicious for fasting, fasting and worship of Nag Devta. In many places, people worship Nag paintings and offer milk and sandalwood. On this day, killing, harassing or disrespecting snakes is forbidden.
Why do not use iron on Nag Panchami?
According to religious belief, the use of iron items like knives, scissors, griddle, hammer, utensils etc. is considered inauspicious on Nag Panchami. This tradition is not only faith, but also an astrological argument based on the influence of planets.
There is a relationship of iron with Rahu and Saturn

According to the stories, iron is a metal related to Rahu planet. Rahu is considered a shadow planet, which is often associated with confusion, sorrows and obstacles. Nag Panchami is dedicated to Nagaraja, the god of snakes, and Rahu is considered a symbol of a snake. Therefore, the use of iron on this day can increase the side effects of Rahu.
Similarly, Shani Dev also has a deep connection with iron. When Rahu and Saturn are coincidental, many problems can arise in life. For this reason, iron has been prohibited on the day of Nag Panchami, so that purity and peace will remain in the house and life.
Why does not bread not be made on the pan?
In many houses on Nag Panchami, cooking bread on the pan is also forbidden. The griddle is also of iron and it is related to Rahu. It is believed that using the pan on this day can increase the flow of negative energy. Therefore people use clay or copper utensils.
Nag Panchami is not just a festival, but also the consciousness of deep relations between planets, metals and lifestyle. The tradition of not using iron is based on astrological and religious beliefs that have been going on for centuries. This day teaches us that maintaining the balance of natural powers, planets and traditions is the way to bring positivity and peace in life.
