and Sundareswarar at Madurai, on the tenth day of the Chithirai festival of the Meenakshi Sundareswarar temple.<\/p>\n<h2>How it is kept<\/h2>\n<p>At Madurai, in the Chithirai festival of the Meenakshi Sundareswarar temple, the wedding of Meenakshi and Sundareswarar is performed in the morning with the full rites of a wedding. Thousands watch, and many married women change the thread of their own mangalasutra that day. The car festival follows, and then Kallazhagar&#8217;s entry into the Vaigai.<\/p>\n<h2>The story<\/h2>\n<p>The Tiruvilaiyadal Purana tells that Meenakshi was born to the Pandya king Malayadhvaja from a sacrifice, ruled Madurai as its queen and set out to conquer the world. At Kailasa, on seeing Shiva, she knew him as her lord. He came to Madurai as Sundareswarar and married her, with her brother Vishnu giving her away; the popular story says Kallazhagar, setting out for the wedding, arrived too late.<\/p>\n<h2>Which day Anudina gives<\/h2>\n<p>The temple fixes the day each year, and no tithi or star rule decides it, so Anudina holds the temple&#8217;s own dates and has nothing to work out. It has 8 May 2025 and 28 April 2026.<\/p>\n<p>It is a Tamil observance. Anudina shows it under the South Indian custom, and under the North Indian custom only when &#8220;Show festivals of other regions too&#8221; is turned on. A reader who ticks the Shakta or Shaiva Siddhanta lineage in the Tradition sheet sees it too, wherever they are.<\/p>\n<p>The dates are 8 May 2025 (DT Next) and 28 April 2026 (the temple&#8217;s schedule, and News Today of 11 March 2026). For any other year Anudina shows no day until the temple announces one and it is added.<\/p>\n<h2>Related pages<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"\/jeevana-sutra\/anudina-karthigai-deepam\/\">Karthigai Deepam<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/jeevana-sutra\/anudina-thai-poosam\/\">Thai Poosam<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><script type=\"module\" src=\"https:\/\/dixith.com\/anudina\/live.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meenakshi Thirukalyanam is the wedding of Meenakshi and Sundareswarar at Madurai, on the tenth day of the Chithirai festival of the Meenakshi Sundareswarar temple.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":0,"_manohara_link_phrases":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[209],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11584","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-anudina-content"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dixith.com\/jeevana-sutra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11584","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dixith.com\/jeevana-sutra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dixith.com\/jeevana-sutra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dixith.com\/jeevana-sutra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dixith.com\/jeevana-sutra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11584"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/dixith.com\/jeevana-sutra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11584\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":11689,"href":"https:\/\/dixith.com\/jeevana-sutra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11584\/revisions\/11689"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dixith.com\/jeevana-sutra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11584"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dixith.com\/jeevana-sutra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11584"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dixith.com\/jeevana-sutra\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11584"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
