Narali Purnima 2021: India’s rich spiritual heritage includes countless festivities that testify to a profound relationship between human existence and nature. Narali Purnima is one of those celebrations, a cosmic expression of thanks to Lord Varuna, the sea god, and a prayer for protection, plenty, and prosperity.
Observed with fervent reverence on the coastal strips of Maharashtra, Goa, Karnataka, and Gujarat, Narali Purnima is not just a cultural ritual but rich in astrological and spiritual meanings. Occurring on the Full Moon (Purnima) of Shravan signifies the conclusion of monsoon chaos and the onset of the safe sailing season for seafarers inhabiting the coastal regions.
In this special article by Astroeshop, we explore the inner reality of Narali Purnima 2021, its astrological strength, pooja rituals, and how this ancient festival synchronises your energy with celestial cosmic forces.

Important Timings
Date: 22nd August 2021, Sunday
Purnima Tithi Begins: 21st August, 07:00 PM

The ritualistic rituals are optimally performed early morning to midday on 22nd August, when the energy of the moon is still strong and water tides are less turbulent for spiritual offerings.
What is Narali Purnima 2021?
The Cultural Meaning
The term “Narali” is synonymous with “Naral,” coconut in Marathi, and “Purnima” means full moon. Coconuts are offered to the sea on this day as an offering of sacrifice, peace offerings, and spiritual reverence to nature’s forces.
For the fisher community and sea-dependent people, Narali Purnima means:
End of the monsoon season
Beginning of the fishing operation
Asking for protection from sea-related perils
Aside from its ceremonial significance, it’s also a reminder to be mindful of water as a living god, a belief that’s deep within Vedic cosmology.
Astrological Significance of Narali Purnima 2021
The Role of the Moon and Water Element
Based on Vedic Astrology, the Shravan full moon is a time when the water element (Jal Tatva) is prevalent. The Moon rules emotions, mental equilibrium, and tides, and Narali Purnima is the best time to harmonise these energies, particularly if one is experiencing:
- Emotional restlessness
- Anxiety or mental tension
- Moon-related disorders (such as Chandra Dosh)
This festival also coincides with Raksha Bandhan in most calendars, highlighting bonding, safeguarding, and harmony in relationships.
Astroeshop suggests special rites and mantras on Chandra Graha during Narali Purnima to enhance emotional power and family harmony.
Planetary Positions during Narali Purnima 2021

Astroeshop’s Kundli-based Moon remedies are most effective if one performs them during this unique alignment.
Narali Purnima Puja Vidhi & Rituals
Step-by-Step Rituals to Follow
1. Purify the Body and Space
Begin the day with an early holy bath in a natural body of water (river, pond, or ocean). Keep your pooja area clean and dress in white or yellow attire, symbolising balance and purity.
2. Create the Puja Thali
Add the following items:
Fresh coconut (with liquid inside, not dry)
Flowers, akshat (turmeric mixed rice), diya
Sandalwood paste, sweets, and jaggery
Sea salt and betel leaves
3. Recite Varuna Mantras
Stand facing west and recite
“Om Namo Bhagavate Varunaya” – 108 times
Call upon the sea god to imbibe your offering and shower peace upon your life path.
4. Donating Coconuts to the Sea
If you’re by the sea, release the coconut gently with a prayer. If not, place the coconut in a clean water jar at home and submerge it later respectfully.
5. Prasad Distribution
Share sweets such as coconut laddoos and jaggery puris with friends, relatives, and poor people. It doubles the spiritual merit (punya).
Spiritual Gains of Marking Narali Purnima
1. Emotional Healing
The Moon’s rulership in Shravan makes it an ideal day for emotional healing, anxiety, and past traumas. Individuals with relationship problems or mental exhaustion respond well to water-element prayers.
2. Safety from Water-Related Fears or Misfortunes
Astrologically, Varuna Dev’s grace keeps individuals who:
- Frequent travel
- Are engaged in water-based professions
- Have dosh of Chandra or Rahu responsible for fear of drowning or emotional instability
- Astroeshop provides Varuna Yantra and Moon Yantras charged with such intentions.
3. Wealth and New Ventures
Surrendering oneself through a coconut offering (representing head and ego) to the sea symbolises self-surrender. Offering coconut on this day is purported to wash away karmic debt and usher in new career opportunities and business startups.
Narali Purnima & Raksha Bandhan – The Cosmic Bond
Interestingly, Narali Purnima and Raksha Bandhan tend to coincide on the same day. Whereas Rakhi is all about safeguarding human relationships, Narali Purnima is about safeguarding one’s relationship with nature.
- The dual celebration symbolises:
- Equilibrium of masculine and feminine energies
- Safeguarding from visible and invisible enemies
- Enhancement of emotional immunity
Astroeshop Raksha Bandhan Kits include spiritual products blessed by Vedic rituals and fuse the energies of both festivals.
