According to Cambodian legend, every year on the initial day of the new year or Sangkran day, a new angel descends to Earth (to partake in a ceremonial procession around Mount Meru under the influence of Kabil Moha Prum). These celestial beings each carry unique items, travel in distinct vehicles, and have preferences for specific foods. The individual characteristics of these angels are meticulously chronicled in the Moha Sangkran manuscript authored by Hora, the astrologer. This results in new year offerings differing annually.

The angel that presides over the new year is dictated by the specific day of the week on which the new year falls. Here is a breakdown of the seven angels and their defining features:

  1. Sunday angel - Tungsa Tevy (ទុង្សាទេវី): As the eldest daughter of Kabil Moha Prum, she is adorned with a ruby necklace and a pomegranate flower hairpin. Tungsa Tevy wields a disc in her right hand and a shell in her left, with fig fruit being her favored food. She travels on a garuda.

  2. Monday angel - Koreak Tevy (គោរាគទេវី): Wearing an Angkeabos flower hairpin, she carries a sword in her right hand and a cane in her left. Riding a tiger, her preferred food is oil.

  3. Tuesday angel - Reaksa Tevy (រាក្យសាទេវី) : Adorned with a lotus flower hairpin, she consumes blood and wields a trident in her right hand and a bow in her left. Her companion is a horse.

  4. Wednesday angel - Mondar Tevy (មណ្ឌាទេវី): Clad in a Champa flower hairpin, she holds a needle in her right hand and a cane in her left. Mondar Tevy's favored food is milk, and she rides a donkey. 

  5. Thursday angel - Keriny Tevy (កិរិណីទេវី): Decked with a Mondar flower hairpin, she enjoys beans and sesame. Carrying a harpoon in her right hand and a gun in her left, Keriny Tevy's vehicle is an elephant.
