Masik Kathigai is one of the oldest festivals for Hindus, especially in Tamil Nadu. It is celebrated in homes and on the streets all over the state. In the evening, people lit rows of lamps, called deepam.
On this day, people pray to Lord Shiva and Lord Murugan. The Nakshatra Karthikai or Krittika is where the name Karthigai Deepam or Karthikai Deepam comes from. Hindu myth says that on this day, Lord Shiva changed into an endless flame of light, which shows that he is more powerful than Lord Vishnu and Lord Brahma.

Masik Karthigai Katha:
Once upon a time, Lord Brahma and Lord Vishnu argued about who was the most powerful.
Both started showing that they were better, and the fight got worse. In this case, Lord Shiva turned himself into a divine light to solve the problem. He then asked both gods to find the beginning and end of that divine light.
On Karthigai Deepam, this Jyoti form of Lord Shiva is prayed to.

Masik Karthigai 2022: Celebration:
Karthigai Nakshatra is thought to help Lord Muruga’s devotion a lot. Skanda Purana says that Lord Muruga came into the world in the form of six flames from the Third Eye of Lord Shiva. Agni and Vayu Devas took the fire to Karthigai Pengal, where the babies would care for it. When they were old enough to be boys, Goddess Parvati put them together to make a single boy with six faces. Because of this, Lord Muruga was called “Shanmuga.” The goddess Parvati then gave Karthigai Pengal a blessing and said that special rites or Poojas would be done on Karthigai Nakshatra for Lord Muruga.
The Tiruvannamalai hills are a popular place to celebrate the Karthikai festival. This is because a huge fire lamp is lit on one of the hills, which can be seen for miles around. The fire lamp, which is called a “Deepam,” is called “Mahadeepam.” Hindus go there to pray to Lord Shiva.
