Tamil Calendar November 2025: November 2025 is an auspicious month in Tamil, with many significant tithis, festivals and religious celebrations. This month, which has its roots in Tamil culture and tradition, is linked to spiritual discipline, devotion, and offering charity. The Tamil months of Aippasi and Karthigai, which are both associated with sacred significance, fall in November. Devotees observe significant fasting days during this time, including Pournami, Amavasya, and Ekadashi, each of which has a unique significance in Hinduism.

Karthigai Deepam, a magnificent festival of lights honouring Lord Shiva and Lord Murugan, is one of the most widely observed holidays during this month.  Rows of lamps illuminate houses and temples throughout Tamil Nadu, signifying the triumph of light over darkness. Devotion and rituals are also observed for other auspicious occasions, such as Mahalaya Amavasya, Sankatahara Chaturthi, and Pradosham. Devotees can find shubh muhurtham (auspicious timings) for ceremonies, poojas and family gatherings with the aid of the Tamil Panchang (calendar) for November 2025. It acts as a spiritual roadmap for organising daily prayers, fasts and monthly trips to the temple.
