Sita Navmi 2025: Date, timings, significance, & all one needs to know

The celebration of Sita Navmi has one more important part, and while it is not a traditional ritual, it is still incorporated into lives today. On Sita Navmi, people read about Maa Sita, her heroics, her behaviour, her nature, her warrior spirit, her notion of an ideal wife, and more, and see her as more than just Lord Ram’s wife.
Mata Sita is thus regarded as the epitome of dharma, and her conduct, be it leaving the life of a palace to enduring the time in Lanka, is seen as a mix of grace and strength. Maa Sita’s inner strength, as we saw in the Ramayan, shows her resolve and how she remained calm through the ordeals in Lanka. And while unmarried women pray to her for a husband like Lord Ram, and her qualities of a warrior princess, married women see her as a ‘Pativrata’, a devoted wife, with an unwavering love and loyalty to Lord Ram.
