Mumbai: As Akshaya Tritiya 2025 approaches, believers across India are gearing up for one of the most auspicious days in the Hindu calendar. Falling on the third day of the waxing phase (Shukla Paksha) in the month of Vaishakh, this sacred occasion—also known as Akha Teej—is synonymous with everlasting prosperity. It is widely believed that any good deed, purchase, or ceremony performed on this day yields inexhaustible benefits, making it a “swayamsiddha muhurat”—a self-sanctioned auspicious time.
Traditionally considered ideal for weddings, housewarming ceremonies, gold purchases, and new ventures, Akshaya Tritiya doesn’t require consulting a panchang (Hindu almanac) to determine a favourable time. But in recent years, with rising costs making big-ticket purchases like gold, vehicles, or property out of reach for many, spiritual experts suggest turning to five simple yet symbolically powerful items that can still invite abundance and divine blessings into your home.
5 Powerful Buys for Akshaya Tritiya 2025
1. Cotton (Rui)
Cotton tops the list of must-buy items on Akshaya Tritiya. Purchasing cotton on this day is believed to boost business and attract positive energy into one’s financial life.
2. Rock Salt (Sendha Namak)
Bringing home sendha namak (rock salt) is thought to bring good fortune and improve household prosperity. However, experts advise not consuming this salt on the same day it is brought home.
3. Earthenware Pots (Mitti ke Patra)
For those unable to purchase gold, buying clay items like earthen pots, diyas, kulhads, or water pitchers is considered equally auspicious. These are symbols of grounding energy and simplicity and are said to draw divine favour.
4. Barley or Yellow Mustard (Jau or Peeli Sarson)
Barley and yellow mustard are often seen as humble yet spiritually rich items. Buying them on Akshaya Tritiya is equated with purchasing precious metals in terms of the blessings they invite.
5. Cowries (Kaudi)
Cowries, deeply associated with Goddess Lakshmi, are considered sacred symbols of wealth. It is advised to purchase 11 cowries, wrap them in a red cloth, and offer them to the goddess as a gesture of inviting endless prosperity into one’s home.
