Kartik Purnima (Dev Deepawali) 2026
Monday, November 23, 2026
In 94 days
What this day is
The full moon of Kartik closes the autumn festival season as Dev Deepawali (the gods' own Diwali), when the ghats of Varanasi blaze with lamps. Sikh neighbors and family keep the same full moon as Guru Nanak Jayanti.
How families observe it at home
Families light a final round of diyas (by water if a river or lake is near, or beside a simple bowl of water at home), and many take a dawn bath as the season's close. A good evening to count the season's gratitudes with children before the year turns toward winter.
