🪐 Astrological Transit Significance
Namaste Beta! 2026 mein Laxmi Puja ka yeh samay bade hi vishesh yog lekar aa raha hai. Kolkata mein is din Surya Kanya Rashi mein virajman honge, jo artha-labh ke liye shubh hai. Chandra ki sthiti aur Shani ka Kumbh mein hona vyavasayik pragati aur sthirta ka sanket deta hai. Yeh samay vyapar mein vriddhi aur ghar mein sukh-samriddhi ke liye uttam hai. **Remedy:** Laxmi ji ko gulab ke phool arpit karein aur shyam ko ghee ka diya ‘Dakhin’ (South) disha ki taraf modkar jalayein. Isse ghar ki nakaratmak urja door hogi. Maata Laxmi aap par sadaiv apni kripa banaye rakhein. Jai Shri Krishna!
