Onam is celebrated for ten days, starting from the day of Atham and culminating on Thiru Onam. Athan and Thiru Onam are the most important days for Onam festivities. The day of Atham is decided by the position of the stars. Onam commences from lunar asterism Atham that appears ten days before asterism Onam or Thiru Onam. Atham is regarded as auspicious and holy day by people of Kerala. Onam corresponds to the shravan day in the month of August or September, so it is also called Sravanotsavam.
