*on Saturday June 16, 2012 *

*Sani Pradosham day.*Shani Pradosh, or Sani Pradosham is the Pradosha 
Vrata falling on Shanivar (Saturday). Pradosham is an auspicious ritual 
fasting & worship day dedicated to Lord Shiva

Lord Sani is the presiding deity of Shanivara (Saturday). Shani is the 
presiding deity for duty and karma and therefore causes suffering to 
those who neglected their duties in their past lives or committed evil 
karmas. It is believed that fasting and praying on Shani Pradosham day 
will help in reducing the suffering caused by Saturn.

Since Monday is dedicated to Shiva, the Pradosha falling on Monday is 
referred as Soma Pradosham and is considered highly auspicious. Pradosha 
falling on Saturday during the waning phase of moon is also auspicious. 
It is believed that all the Devas & Gods are assembled in the Shiva 
temples during Pradosham time. Further, the first pradosham was on a 
Saturday & hence "Sani Pradosham" is even more auspicious.
