As Maha Kumbh 2025 nears its end, a rare celestial event is taking place. All seven planets—Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune—are visible from India. The alignment will peak on February 28, when all planets line up on one side of the Sun. “Such cosmic events amplify spiritual energies,” say believers. While five planets can be seen with the naked eye, Uranus and Neptune need binoculars. The best time to watch is after sunset or before sunrise. This rare sight adds a special significance to the festival, which has drawn millions of pilgrims this year.
