Diwali is the darkest night of the year and has a strong astrological significance. This is the night when we can achieve wealth, good health and prosperity. This night brings the blessing of Shri and Maha Kaali both. Any person who does the pooja give will see a minimum 25% rise in their financial status and prosperity.
Lakshmi Pooja
We begin the Pooja with Laksmi, Ganesh and Vishnu Pooja. This part is the main part of the whole night. Remember Lakshmi Pooja without worship of Vishnu is not going to be fructified.
Pooja Timing
Lakshmi Pooja is best done when the rising sign is Tauras. This Sthira Lagna ensures that the blessings of Shri is stable. This is the muhurta for worship at home. For offices and businesses, one must choose a Dual or Movable rising sign.
