In May 2026, the Masik Durgashtami will be observed on Saturday, 23rd May 2026. This falls under the Shukla Paksha (bright half) of the Jyeshtha Adhik Maas.

The Moon is in Scorpio (its debilitated sign) along with Jyeshtha Nakshatra. This combination creates mental intensity and health vulnerability. Scorpios are warned about "old diseases resurfacing" and high expenses.

Observing the Som Pradosh Vrat is believed to bring profound peace, happiness, and harmony to married life (Dampatya Sukh). It also blesses the devotee with good health, longevity, and the fulfillment of their deepest desires.

The primary goal is to educate the public about the deadly diseases caused by tobacco and to expose the deceptive practices of tobacco companies. It also aims to urge governments and policymakers to implement stricter guidelines (सख्त नीति और दिशानिर्देश) and hold tobacco producers accountable for both health crises and environmental degradation.
