Margasira Masam in Telugu Calendar
In the traditional Hindu Telugu calendar, Margasira Masam is the ninth month. This calendar is used in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. In the old Hindu calendar, the first month was called Margasira Masam or Agrahayana. Chaitram became the first month of the Hindu calendar over time. In the middle of the good month of Margasira, the Sun moves from the Scorpio sign of Vrischika Rasi to the sign of Dhanur Rasi (zodiac sign of Sagittarius). When the Sun moves into Dhanur Rasi, which marks the start of Dhanur Masam, Dhanur Sankramanam is held.

Importance of Margasira masam for Hindus:
Hindus, especially those who follow Sri Maha Vishnu, believe that Margasira Masam and Dhanur Masam are very lucky months because they are thought to be the form of Kesava (Sri Maha Vishnu). Since Sri Maha Vishnu is the month, Lakshmi Devi, who is married to Sri Maha Vishnu, loves this month very much. On Thursdays of Margasira Masam, people worship Lakshmi Devi. In many parts of the country, they do Margasira Lakshmivar Pooja/Vratam and pray especially to Lakshmi Devi for health, wealth, and happiness.
The Kanaka Mahalakshmi Temple in Visakhapatnam is fully decorated for Margasira Masam. Devotees from all over the district come to the temple, especially on Thursdays, during Margasira Masam. The whole area has an atmosphere like a fair.
