Vaishakhi Amavasya holds a special significance. Today this Amavasya is being celebrated. Its specialty is that this Amavasya falls on Friday. Friday is auspicious for planet Venus and Goddess Lakshmi. It is believed that on the day of Amavasya the ancestors are closer to the earth. This holy day symbolizes the relief from financial difficulties and attainment of wealth by the blessings of ancestors and the grace of Goddess Lakshmi. Although many people consider Amavasya inauspicious, from a spiritual point of view it is a great opportunity to remember ancestors and overcome life’s obstacles.
Compared to other Amavasyas, Vaishakh Amavasya bestows more virtues. This day is most auspicious for offering offerings to ancestors. Donating Satva is considered very auspicious. Amavasya Tithi has started from 8.11 pm on 16th April. After this it will last till 5:21 pm on 17th April.
On this Amavasya, measures can be taken to get rid of Pitra Dosha. It is believed that if proper tarpan is not offered to the ancestors, the income becomes stagnant and the debt increases. On this Amavasya day, take bath early in the morning and offer black sesame seeds to your ancestors. Don’t forget to feed the crows because crows are considered the incarnation of ancestors. If a crow touches the rice, it means that the ancestors are happy.

What measures should be taken?
Debt relief: Worship Goddess Lakshmi in the morning or evening and light a lamp in front of her. Perform Aarti together.
Sesame Oil Lamp: Light sesame oil lamps on both sides of your door on the evening of Amavasya. This will remove negative energy and Goddess Lakshmi will arrive.
Peepal worship: In the evening, light a lamp of cow ghee under the Peepal tree and perform seven parikramas. It is believed that Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh reside in Peepal. This puja removes financial difficulties and opens new sources of income.
What to do and what not to do on Amavasya?
Taking bath before sunrise increases positive energy in the body. By donating fruits, old clothes or food to the poor, the evil effects of the planets are removed. Eating meat and drinking alcohol can cause the anger of ancestors, so these should be avoided. It is advisable to avoid traveling as much as possible and remain calm at home and stay away from quarrels.
Moon has less influence on Amavasya
Due to less influence of Moon on Amavasya day, mental emotions may increase. Meditation is helpful in controlling the mind. This is a good time to review financial plans. It is believed that any small good deed done on this day gives double the results. The burden of debt is relieved by worshiping the ancestral deities with devotion and worshiping Goddess Lakshmi with full devotion.
