Mesha Sankranti 2025: The Celestial Reset You Shouldn’t Miss

Mesha Sankranti marks the Sun’s transition into Aries (Mesha Rashi) — the first sign in the Vedic zodiac. It is considered the beginning of the Hindu solar new year and carries immense astrological and spiritual significance.

In 2025, Mesha Sankranti falls on April 14. While it's celebrated differently across regions — as Vishu in Kerala, Puthandu in Tamil Nadu, Baisakhi in Punjab, and Poila Boishakh in Bengal — the underlying theme remains the same: new beginnings, renewal, and the start of a powerful energy cycle.

Astrological Significance

From an astrological standpoint, this is the moment when the Sun is exalted — it shines with its maximum strength in Aries. This planetary shift enhances qualities like:

Confidence

Focus

Clarity in decision-making

A surge in leadership energy

It's a great time to:

Set personal and professional goals

Start spiritual practices or rituals

Cleanse physical and mental spaces

Offer gratitude and charity

Why This Matters in Your Chart

The placement of the Sun in your personal birth chart determines how this shift will affect your life. It could boost your career, shift your relationship dynamics, or awaken your spiritual side — but this depends on how Aries aligns in your horoscope.

This is a whitewash of the real story, which I discussed in 2014 based on an article in Jordan's Ammon News:

According to the article, some historians say that the name of the dish comes from the root NSF which means "blowing up", "blasting", "destroying." A legend is told of an ancient "Arab" Moabite king from 885 BCE, Mesha, who asked that this dish be created as a way of expressing his animosity towards the Jews, whom he knew were planning to betray him. Mansaf is made of lamb cooked in a yogurt-based sauce and is not kosher because of the Jewish prohibition of eating meat cooked in milk. Therefore, the article claims, the dish was originally created to insult Jews.

The article says that the king of Moab created the dish as a "declaration of his people's hostility to the Jews since 885 BC. " His people enthusiastically responded, "knowing that this is nothing but a declaration of hostility against the treacherous Jews."

Moon in ashwini - ruled by scattering Ketu under Mesha (Aries)

- Gracious personality, enjoys good power and exchanges ideas with learned people .

- Occupies a high position in a company or government service.

- Affected with excess bile complaints.

- Even though you are a good executive, you are not generally liked by your associates and employees.

Twin

-Ashwini-Chandra (moon) often has a psychic twin, who may be the marriage partner, team-mate, a close friend, an ancestor spirit, or a physical twin. The twin's social rank might not match the native's rank.

-Often (not always) a significant gap of age or social station.

-Ashwini forms "eccentric core partnerships". Nevertheless the bond is profound.

Emotional distancing

Like all the Ketu-ruled Chandra nakshatra, Magha often longs for the company of one unattainable, distant, or uncaring. Tendency toward unrequited love relationships, or very odd unions with partners from a socially different world.

Feminine Nativities Only - Ketu Moon

- The female Ashwini native = "partner-optional"

- Although companionship may be appreciated and Ashwini may cheerful marry with positive expectation (so long as partner also enjoys a Rahu-Ketu ruled Chandra)

- Indeed the independent and self-sufficient Ashwini woman may live in Ketu-conscious-contentment without a full-time partner.

Freedom

- Needs space, is eccentric, a bit standoffish, yet physically quite extraordinary and may be capable of almost superhuman feats of endurance and speed.

- Claims the privilege to live in one's own way, according to one's own needs, and does not brook interference.

- Inventive, even genius, in a highly eccentric and personalized style. Not much engaged emotionally; likes to meet basic physical need for nurturing then off to the next idea. Independent nature.
