Makar Sankranti is a sacred harvest festival celebrated across India, marking the Sun's transition into Capricorn (Makara) and the beginning of Uttarayan—a phase believed to bring positivity, growth, and spiritual upliftment.
Unlike many Indian festivals, Makar Sankranti follows the solar calendar, symbolizing renewal, hope, and new beginnings.
Food plays a central role in celebrations, making it the most auspicious occasion for Anna Daan (food donation).
The heart of the festival remains the same across all regions: gratitude, sharing, and compassion.
