Tips for Prosperity and Spiritual Fulfillment

On Akshaya Tritiya, we’re exposed to unique cosmic energies, offering a chance to leap forward in our financial destiny, impacting the next 12 months of abundance and prosperity.

Here are our recommendations for this special day:

1. Plan ahead and strive to accomplish what you wish to experience throughout the year.
2. If possible, purchase physical gold or silver (or gold and silver jewelry). You can do this online if preferred. It’s enough to buy on that day; delivery can be later. We don’t recommend buying foreign currency. The energy of paper money is not the same as gold or silver. Similarly, opening a gold account at a bank would only affect the digital dimension, so it’s not recommended. Physical gold and silver are the right choices.
3. Engage in activities that bring you joy and spend time with loved ones.
4. Make an effort to help those in need on Akshaya Tritiya day.
5. During Akshaya Tritiya Day, try to stay away from fights, noise, anger, resentment, and sadness.
6. Try not to lend money or make unnecessary expenses on that day.
7. On Akshaya Tritiya day, prepare your body for special cosmic energies by taking a morning shower, wearing clean and preferably new clothes, and feeling good about yourself. Start the day positively and activate your gratitude so it continues to grow throughout the year.
8. On this ideal day for starting new ventures such as starting a new business, partnership, marriage, buying a house, buying a car, or making investments, try to allocate time, even if briefly, for all new beginnings you intend to make.
