Mid-June, around Mithuna Sankranti. After the preparatory day Sajabaja come Pahili Raja, Raja Sankranti and Basi Raja or Bhudaha, during which Bhudevi, regarded as the wife of Jagannath, is said to have her monthly rest. Farm work stops. Girls bathe with turmeric before dawn on the first day, wear new saris and alata, avoid bare feet (some use banana-bark soles), eat podapitha and play on decorated swings, singing Raja songs; men play kabaddi. On the fourth day, Basumati Snana, women wash the grinding stone, as Bhumi, with turmeric, sindoor and flowers.
Northeast India · Kamakhya temple, Guwahati, AssamShakta🪔 Ambubachi Mela
In the month of Ahar, mid-June, with the Brahmaputra in flood, the Kamakhya temple near Guwahati closes for three days for the goddess's yearly rest. She is worshipped there as a rock cleft with a spring, without an image, and in these days is identified with Mother Earth. Devotees do not cook, worship, read holy books or farm. On the fourth day she is bathed, the door opens, and pilgrims receive spring water (angodak) and a piece of the red cloth that covered the rock (angabastra).
What is different here:
Centred on one Shakta temple and its goddess rather than on households; the closing and reopening of the door is the rite. Pilgrims and ascetics gather from all over India. No swings or girls' holiday.
South India · Tulu Nadu, coastal KarnatakaFolk🪔 Keddasa
In February, on the last three days of the Tulu month Ponni (Keddasa, Nadu Keddasa, Kade Keddasa), Bhumi Devi is said to rest and become ready for farming; no tilling is done. Families share kudu ari, roasted horse gram, rice and other grains. Early on the last day the eldest woman puts cow dung round the tulsi, lights a lamp, sets out kumkum and shikakai and a rice dish, and pours coconut oil on the soil before her own bath. Men used to go on a village hunt. Digging resumes only afterwards.
What is different here:
Held in February, not at the monsoon. A household rite led by the eldest woman, with oil and soap pod for the Earth's bath; no temple and no grinding stone. A communal hunt is attached.
