Diwali 2025 Date: October 20 or 21? When to Celebrate Deepawali? Know the Best Time for Lakshmi Ganesh Puja

• Best Time: Pradosh Kaal during Sthir Lagna (Vrishabha Lagna)
• Special Ritual: Chopda Pujan for financial blessings

It is highly recommended to perform Lakshmi Puja during Pradosh Kaal when Sthir Lagna prevails. Sthir (fixed) ensures that Goddess Lakshmi stays permanently in your home, bringing long-lasting prosperity. Among the Lagnas, Vrishabha Lagna (Taurus) is considered most favorable as it often overlaps with Pradosh Kaal during Diwali.

Note:Amavasya Tithi doesn't overlap with Nishita.

While some sources suggest performing Puja during Mahanishita Kaal, it is most suitable for the Tantrik community and experienced Pandits. For common devotees, performing Lakshmi Ganesh Puja during Pradosh Kaal is highly recommended. Avoid using Choghadiya Muhurat, as it is meant for travel-related activities rather than Puja.

During Diwali, businessmen perform Chopda Pujan alongside Lakshmi Ganesh Puja. New account books are inaugurated to seek Goddess Lakshmi’s blessings for wealth and success in the coming financial year. This ritual emphasizes financial prosperity and is an essential part of Diwali celebrations in many communities.

By following these traditions and performing the Puja during the recommended Muhurat, devotees can invite wealth, prosperity, and happiness into their homes. Diwali 2025 promises to be an auspicious occasion filled with devotion, rituals, and the spirit of celebration.
