Rama Navami (Sanskrit: राम नवमी, romanized: Rāmanavamī) is a Hindu festival that celebrates the birth of Rama, a revered deity in Hinduism, also known as the seventh avatar of Vishnu. He is often held as an emblem within Hinduism for being an ideal king and human, through his righteousness, good conduct and virtue. The festival falls on the ninth day of the bright half (Shukla Paksha) of the lunar cycle of Chaitra (March–April), the first month in the Hindu calendar. It is also part of the Chaitra Navaratri festival in spring. Ram Navami falls on the ninth day of the bright fortnight of Chaitra.

Dates can vary by a day between regions and traditions.

Why does the date move?

Hindu festivals follow the panchang, a lunisolar calendar in which most festivals are tied to a particular lunar day (tithi) of a particular month. Because lunar months drift against the solar year and a leap month is periodically inserted, the Gregorian date of each festival moves within a few weeks from year to year — and regional traditions can observe the same festival a day apart.
