Satuan or Satua Sankranti is the day in Hinduism when people earn a lot of virtue by donating pitcher, fan, sattu and cold fruits. There is religious belief that by donating on this day, the deities are pleased and the soul of the ancestors is satisfied. It is also seen as a symbol of the onset of the summer season. According to the legend, Lord Vishnu first had a meal of Sattu after defeating King Bali and that is why it is considered very auspicious to consume Sattu on this day. Jyotishacharya, Yajnacharya and Vedic Karmakandi Pt. Ratnesh Tripathi highlighted the importance of Satua Sankranti and gave detailed information.
He told, “This festival is related to the changes of Lord Sun. On this day, Lord Sun changes the zodiac sign. The Sun God comes out of the zodiac sign on this day and enter the Aries sign. On this occasion, devotees take a dip in the Ganges or other holy rivers and then worship. After worshiping Lord Surya. After worshiping Lord Surya.

Let me tell you, in religion, Sattu is considered sacred as much as health is beneficial. Energy in the body remains due to the consumption of Sattu during the summer season. The syrup made of sattu removes the body’s heat and it gives coolness. Consumption of fiber -rich sattu removes stomach heat and also makes the digestive system strong. Ayurvedacharya says that there is no fear of heatstroke due to consumption of sattu or syrup before leaving the house to avoid heat in summer days.
