Satabhishekam is celebrated for a person who has lived through 1000 moons (about 81 years). It is in our tradition to seek the blessings of such a person by performing rituals etc. for the welfare of humanity. "Satabhishekam" refers to the rituales performed at this time in a person's life. "Sata" means "1000" and "abhishekam" is the main ritual.
