In lunar religious calendars, Maagh may begin on either the new moon or the full moon around the same time of year, and is usually the eleventh month of the year. In solar religious calendars, Maagh begins with the Sun's entry into Capricorn, and is usually the tenth month of the year. Maagha is also the name of a sanskrit poet.
