The first Sawan Somwar of 2026 will be on Monday, 3 August. Sawan Somwar is devoted to Lord Shiva. Many devotees keep a fast on this day, perform Jalabhishek, and recite Shiva mantras. Numerology makes this occasion more interesting. The complete date of August 3, 2026, adds up to 21, which reduces to Number 3. The Universal Year Number for 2026 is 1, and August vibrates with the power of Number 8. Number 3 is about wisdom, expression and expansion. Number 1 is for initiative and confidence, and Number 8 is for discipline, responsibility and delayed results. This combination makes the first Sawan Somwar suitable for remedies related to decision-making, career direction, emotional balance, and financial discipline. Your birth date is used to calculate your Mulank. For example, someone born on 14 has Mulank 5 as 1 + 4 = 5.
Mulank 1: Born on 1, 10, 19 or 28
Mulank 1 people are normally independent, ambitious and confident. Their restlessness can create friction with elders and family members. Remedy: They should offer clean water to the Shivling in a copper pot. Chant this mantra 11 times, “Om Namah Shivaya”, to get clarity and humility. This can help you deal with a commanding tone and balance career choices. Don’t attempt to assert your authority in important conversations.
Mulank 2: Born on 2, 11, 20 or 29
Mulank 2 people are sensitive, caring and receptive in emotional matters. They can also be influenced by how people speak or by their feelings. Remedy: Make Abhishek with a little raw milk mixed with clean water. Pray for peace of mind and better relations. Traditionally, the remedy is thought to promote calmness and reduce undue worry. Don’t make a money decision just because someone is putting pressure on you emotionally.
Mulank 3: Birth on 3, 12, 21 or 30
The date vibration of the first Sawan Somwar is Mulank 3. This can make the day meaningful for education, career planning, guidance and personal development. Remedy: After completing your shiva puja, donate yellow fruit, chana dal or study material to someone in need. The remedy may promote wisdom, generosity and responsible use of knowledge. This can be especially helpful when you’re waiting for professional acknowledgement or gearing up to present an important idea.
Mulank 4: Born on 4th, 13th, 22nd or 31st
Mulank 4 is for taking less travelled paths. Their peace may be disturbed by sudden changes, overthinking and unexpected delays. Remedy: Mix a small quantity of black sesame seeds with water and give it during Jalaabhishek. Pray for stability and protection from bad judgement. Scrutinise official papers, financial agreements, and online dealings carefully. Don’t take a needless chance just because the normal way looks slow.
Mulank 5: Born on the 5th, 14th or 23rd
Mulank 5 relates to communication, business, movement and adaptability. These people can have lots of ideas, but they have a hard time being consistent. Remedy: Offer 5 clean and unbroken bel patra to Lord Shiva with chanting “Om Namah Shivaya”. Use the day to gain clarity about business, interviews, writing, travel or important negotiations. Don’t keep going back and forth. One well-chosen plan may be more successful than a series of incomplete attempts.
Mulank 6: Born on 6, 24 or 15
Mulank 6 people like love, beauty, comfort and emotional security. Their weakness may be too much anticipation or lifestyle spending that is not needed. Remedy: Offer white flowers to Lord Shiva and donate a white sweet or milk-based food to a needy person. The remedy may help in peace, love, and family affairs. It can also promote a healthier balance between comfort and fiscal responsibility. Don’t judge a relationship by the gifts, the looks or the social status alone.
Mulank 7: Born on 7th, 16th or 25th
Mulank 7: People who are deep thinkers, observant and private. When they are confused, they may withdraw, rather than talk about what is bothering them. Remedy: Add a few drops of Gangajal in clean water and perform Jalabhishek. Then sit silently for 7 minutes. Take this silence to re-examine an emotional or work-related issue. Maybe a quiet mind will reveal to you something you missed before. Don’t rely on gut feeling when it comes to documents, money or commitments.
Mulank 8: Born on 8, 17 or 26
The month of August carries the vibration of Number 8, and hence discipline is of utmost importance for this Mulank. Work, money, or employment issues may need your attention. Pending duties may need your attention. Remedy: Light a sesame oil lamp in a safe and suitable place near your home temple. Pray for patience and strength to complete unfinished duties. The remedy helps you stay calm through delays. Never ignore debts, official payments, or commitments. Or perhaps it’s about consistency, not a sudden shortcut.
Mulank 9: Born on 9, 18 or 27
People of Mulank 9 are brave and action-oriented. But anger or haste can also delay a good opportunity. Remedy: Offer plain water to the Shivling and then chant the Mahamrityunjaya Mantra 9 times. If you’re about to do something important, pray for self-control. The remedy may help to direct strong energy into constructive work. Avoid arguments, impulsive purchases and decisions just to prove your courage.
