Light a Diya 🪔 with ghee or sesame oil with some mustard oil and camphor
This year’s Akshaya Tritiya shows not only exalted Sun in Aries and Moon in Taurus, but also exalted Mars in Capricorn, with Venus in its own sign of Taurus along with the Moon, and Saturn in its own sign of Capricorn along with Mars. Jupiter in Capricorn receives some cancellation of its debility. Mercury has just joined Aries along with the exalted Sun. These are promising combinations showing us that the coronavirus pandemic should be receding now.
Unfortunately, all these planets remain under a larger difficult Kala Sarpa (Serpent of Time) Yoga with Rahu in Gemini and Ketu in Sagittarius. But its power is waning. May this joint power of exalted Sun and Moon bring light, health and happiness to all! Only in India is this special day of exalted Sun and Moon honored. In fact it is regarded as one of the four most auspicious days in the Vedic astronomical year. Sun and Moon represent the Divine Father and Mother of all. Any actions started or resolves made on this date are much more likely to succeed.
What makes Akshaya Tritiya so special is that it is the only day in the year when both the Sun and Moon are exalted according to the positions of Jyotish or Vedic astrology. This is only possible when the Sun is located in Aries, its sign of exaltation, and simultaneously the Moon is in Taurus, its sign of exaltation.
On this day Sun and Moon, masculine and feminine energies, Agni and Soma, Lakshmi and Vishnu, Shiva and Shakti forces are both at their highest point of power but also in balance with one another.
Akshaya Tritiya falls on the third lunar day or Tithi of the bright half of Vaishakha month (April-May). In Sanskrit the word Akshaya means ‘never diminishing’, and brings auspiciousness and success in all our yoga and meditation practices and is good for personal actions and worldly affairs as well.
Akshaya Tritiya marks the birth of Lord Parashurama, the sixth avatar of Lord Vishnu. It is auspicious as Vyas Muni recited the Mahabharata to Sri Ganesha on Akshaya Tritiya.
Jyotisha or Vedic Astrology is an in-depth study to understand our deeper self and nature for enhancing personal growth and well-being. The birth chart is our karmic code to discover our karmic alignment, awakening our highest potential. Jyotisha opens us up to learning and ritualizing life so we can approach our existence from a place of deep authenticity and spirituality.
The Vedic wisdom awakens us to deeper insights in embracing life in a more dharmic way. Our relationship with the Earth, Nature, the Planets and Stars guide us in our relationships with humanity, plants, the animals, rivers and the five elements. We all must be peaceful Co-Workers on this journey through life.
Muhurta or Auspicious Timing
On Akshaya Tritiya any sincere wish made or action commenced will likely be fruitful and successful. It is a day that we can go beyond the limitations of our karma both individually and collectively.
Our prayers for world peace along with making offerings and contributions to the less fortunate will bring harmony into our lives and for the planet overall. Dakshina and gratitude to the Guru and the wisdom shared brings in the flow of grace for the deepest level of guidance and inspiration.
Pitri Tarpanam (honoring the ancestors) on Akshaya Tritiya is auspicious and said to help our past relatives. As they are now residents of the subtle worlds, they gain higher cosmic energies when we offer flowers, rituals and mantras on their behalf. Great blessings flow also our way when they are honored and are able to help us from these realms beyond.
In India on this date people bathe in sacred rivers before sunrise, offering prayers to Surya Deva, the Sun. You can use the mantra Om Hreem Suryaya Namah!
It is helpful to keep a fast and make offerings of rice grains as well as worshipping Lord Vishnu. Honoring the Tulsi plant and using water infused with Tulsi leaves is auspicious to drink as well as to sprinkle around the home and ones meditation room.
At night it is best to make an offering of a mixture of water, milk and honey along with mantras to the Moon to draw in the auspicious Soma or immortal nectar into our lives. You can use the mantra OM Shreem Somaya Namah!
People celebrate special Pujas on this day offering barley into the sacred fire, and worshipping Lord Ganesha & Devi Lakshmi for health and for both spiritual and material prosperity. When we spiritualize our lives the divine grace flows!
🐚सङ्कल्प Saṅkalpa or Sacred Resolutions 🐚
On this auspicious morning break a coconut at the entrance to your home or work place. Offer small pieces in all the directions –North, South, East, West, heavenwards and down to Mother Earth. The rest of the coconut can be eaten as Prasad.
Make an offering at a temple at some point during the day, if you can, and pray for universal peace and harmony. Make some kheer (milk and rice sweet preparation) and offer it as Prasad and share it with family and friends.
We should form a Saṅkalpa for drawing in the deeper wisdom or jnana and set our plans for renewing ventures, relationships, marriages and other sacred connections.
It is a powerful time for commencing a mantra sadhana with specific japa and spiritual practices. It is considered to be overall one of the most favorable days of the year for inner awakening!
As both masculine and feminine, Shiva and Shakti energies are balanced on this day, a Saṅkalpa for happiness in relationship is celebrated by married women who wear a red thread with vermillion around their necks, invoking blessings and harmonious tidings as well as the longevity of their partners.
Worshipping Lord Shiva brings blessings into the homes. Unmarried women place the red thread at the feet of Lord Shiva to find a partner who resonates with their higher Self.
Seeking the blessings of parents and the elderly in the family helps us heal our relationships, bringing peace and prosperity into our lives. Healing relationships with compassion and wisdom is important for our own soul journey.
Acknowledging and releasing all negativity, remorse, anger, resentment and envy helps us transcend our lower desire nature.
Manifest a Saṅkalpa for universal joy, prosperity, harmony and well-being, taking in the full light and vitality of both the Sun and Moon!
