Tritiya
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. Tritiya is the Sanskrit word for "three", and is the third day in the lunar fortnight (Paksha) of the Hindu calendar. Each month has two Tritiya days, being the third day of the "bright" (Shukla) and of the "dark" (Krishna) fortnights respectively. Thus Tritiya occurs on the third and the eighteenth day of each month.
Festivals
- Teej, a festival for Hindu women, occurs on Tritiya in the month of Shraavana.
- Akshaya Tritiya occurs on Tritiya in the month of Vaishakha.
