Ratha Sapthami
Ratha Sapthami is celebrated on the 7th day (Saphtami), during the waxing (bright) moon phase, in the month of Magha. It marks the 7th day following the Sun's northerly movement (Uttarayana) from tropic of Capricorn. Sun is symbolized as Surya (Sun God) turning his chariot (ratha) drawn by seven horses (7 colors), denoting the change in season.
