Cleanse Your Home and Follow Vastu Protocols Ahead of Sawan
Ahead of Sawan, devotees are encouraged to prepare their homes for divine energy. Experts recommend a thorough cleaning of all living spaces, with particular attention to the puja room or spiritual altar. Sprinkling Ganga Jal (holy water) around the house is advised to dispel negativity and enhance spiritual vibrations.

As per religious customs, any damaged idols or sacred objects should be respectfully removed from the home—preferably immersed in a river, placed under a Peepal tree, or handed over to a temple.
To maintain spiritual purity during this month, avoid storing or consuming alcohol, cigarettes, or tamasic foods like onions and garlic, which are said to create Vastu imbalances and diminish the efficacy of spiritual practices.
Shiv Puja and Fasting Guidelines for Sawan Devotees
The month of Sawan encourages deep devotion, spiritual discipline, and self-purification, with the observance of Sawan Somvar fasts believed to invoke Lord Shiva’s divine blessings. Devotees observing these fasts often sleep on the floor rather than on beds as a form of austerity.
