Boost Business Luck on Jyestha Purnima with These Simple Tips
Jyestha Purnima (the full moon day of the Jyestha month) holds special significance. On this day, the Vat Purnima fast is also observed. It is believed that bathing in the Ganga or any holy river on Jyestha Purnima helps cleanse all sins. Jyestha Purnima is on June 11 this year. According to Celebrity Astrologer Parduman Suri, those whose businesses are not yielding profits should worship the Peepal tree on this day. The Peepal tree is believed to be the abode of Lord Narayan and the ancestors (Pitrs). On Jyestha Purnima, offer water from a vessel mixed with raw milk and sugar or batasha (a sweet) to the Peepal tree. Also light a lamp under the tree. This pleases the ancestors and brings blessings from Lord Narayan and Goddess Lakshmi. Observing a fast on this day is said to bring happiness, prosperity, peace in the family, and fulfillment of wishes. Donating water-filled pitchers, clothes, grains, umbrellas, fans, etc., is considered highly auspicious. In some regions, Vat Savitri Vrat is also observed on Jyestha Purnima instead of Jyestha Amavasya. Rituals and Remedies for Jyestha Purnima * This day is especially dear to Goddess Lakshmi. Worship her along with Lord Narayan and offer them kheer (a sweet rice pudding). * Invite five young girls to your home, serve them food, give them dakshina (a token offering), and see them off by touching their feet. Goddess Lakshmi is believed to be very pleased with this act. If you continue this ritual on every Purnima (full moon), it is said that your hardships will soon end, and wealth will flow freely. * Reciting the Lakshmi Stotra and Kanakadhara Stotra on this day is considered very auspicious. * Small sea shells (Cowries) are highly favored by Goddess Lakshmi. Apply turmeric and saffron to 11 cowries, worship them along with Goddess Lakshmi, and recite the Kanakadhara Stotra. The next day, wrap the cowries in a red cloth and place them in your locker or wardrobe. This is believed to bring wealth and prosperity to the home.

Zodiac Signs With the Most Complex Minds
There are some zodiac signs whose mental level is extremely deep, analytical, and mysterious. These people are complex, both emotionally and intellectually. Their depth of thinking and unique perspective make them different from others. Let's know from Chirag Daruwalla which Zodiac signs with the most complex minds: Virgo People born under the Virgo sign are highly analytical and logical. They try to understand every little thing minutely and react only after thoroughly evaluating any situation. Their desire for perfection and self-critical nature make them mentally complex. These people, who look calm from the outside, are always thinking from the inside - what is right, what could have been better. This constant thinking makes them a person with a deep and complex mindset. Scorpio People born under the Scorpio sign are emotionally excessive and mentally mysterious. These people keep many layers hidden within themselves, which no one can understand easily. The feelings and thoughts going on in their minds are often not expressed outwardly, but a deep struggle and analysis continue within. Scorpios take time to trust and do not reveal themselves until they are completely convinced – this is what makes them the most complex and mysterious. Capricorn Capricorn human beings are extraordinarily sensible, disciplined, and lengthy-time period thinkers. Their mental complexity is hidden in their strategic and goal-oriented nature. They believe in logic more than emotions and keep their inner things hidden. For them, achievements are more important than emotions, due to which they may appear cold and distant to others, but a strong process of thinking and analysis continues deep within. Aquarius Aquarius native beings are taken into consideration to be the maximum specific and mentally unbiased. Their thinking is outside the traditional boundaries, which makes them completely different from others. They often think ahead of society, but are a little complex in emotional attachment. Their rational approach and emotional distance make them mysterious. Aquarians are very intelligent, but their thinking is difficult to understand — this is what gives them mental depth and complexity. Pisces Pisces are extremely sensitive, artistic, and imaginative. Their minds continually oscillate between fact and fantasy. They go deep into emotions, but are often so lost in their inner world that it becomes difficult to understand them. There is a spiritual and creative dimension to their psyche, which makes them mysterious and sometimes even confusing. Pisces are so immersed in their world of feelings, dreams, and intuition that their thinking becomes extremely complex and esoteric.

Vinayak Chaturthi and Using It to Remove Doshas from the Kundli
Because even the stars need a little divine debugging sometimes. Vinayak Chaturthi : Your Cosmic Reset Button for Astrological Troubles You know Vinayak Chaturthi (or Sankashti Chaturthi, as it's called when it comes after a full moon) isn't just about delicious modaks , lighting lamps, and maybe a little eye-rolling at your neighbor's extra loud aarti . Spiritually, it's a huge cosmic reset button, especially if you're carrying around heavy astrological baggage like a Shani Dosh , Rahu-Ketu Dosh , Mangal Dosh , or that messy, uninvited Saturn Return drama. This powerful day can actually help fix what feels astrologically broken. Here's how: 1. Worship Ganesh with the Right Mantras Ganesh isn't just the one who removes obstacles; he's your VIP pass to bypass any planetary grudges. On this day, chanting " Om Gan Ganapataye Namah " 108 times can seriously help to calm down those troublesome planetary alignments. If you're dealing with issues from Ketu or Rahu , you might find this particularly soothing—think of it as a spiritual mosquito repellent. 2. Offer Durva Grass and Modaks Like It's a Peace Treaty Ganesh absolutely loves Durva grass and Modaks. Offering 21 blades of Durva is said to soften the wrath of Mars (Mangal Dosh) and Saturn (Shani Dosh) . It's not about bribery; it's more like a divine negotiation with some very sweet incentives. 3. Perform Ganesh Abhishek with Panchamrit That classic mix of milk, honey, sugar, curd, and ghee isn't just a recipe; it's a powerful pantry alchemy. This symbolic cleanse helps to realign your chakras and soothe any planetary agitation. Dealing with a Mangal Dosh ? Bathe Ganesh, and you might just find Mars chilling out. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Switch to UnionBank Rewards Card UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo 4. Light a Desi Ghee Diya Facing East Light a lamp made with desi ghee and place it facing east. As you do, mentally send an "unsubscribe" email to all your obstacles. Lighting lamps on this day helps bring clarity and dispels issues from Sun and Mercury doshas —no shady retrograde energy allowed here! 5. Donate for Karma Clearance Vinayak Chaturthi is a prime day for a karmic detox. Donating food, sweets, or school supplies can help clear out debts with Jupiter (Guru Dosh) and Mercury (Budh Dosh) . Think of it as charitable astrology—a spiritual investment with a tax-free return. 6. Moon Connection: Observe a Fast Until Moonrise Keeping a Sankashti Vrat (a fast) until moonrise helps align your energy with the moon to detox any subconscious karmas. It's like taking your birth chart to therapy and letting the Moon be your wise counselor.
