Maha Shivratri is the major Hindu festival that celebrates the union of Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. There are several other beliefs associated with the festival, including it being the day that marks the anniversary of Lord Shiva performing the cosmic dance of creation and destruction, the Tandava.
This year, Maha Shivratri will be celebrated on February 18.

The month is alternatively called Magha in South India. On this auspicious occasion, here are some wishes and messages to share with your family and friends.
