Fortune With Natural Yellow Sapphire on Akshaya Tritiya

akshaya tritiya

Greetings on the auspicious occasion of Akshaya Tritiya – The third (thritiya tithi) day of the waxing lunar phase in the Hindu month of Vaishakh that promises to keep fortunes or positive endeavours made this day on an eternal growth path. It is a very auspicious day for new beginnings.

 

 

While there is much hype created around the day for buying gold and other assets, the day is generally a good one to start new initiatives. It is a day when Dharmaraj Yudhishthira, the eldest Pandava got the Akshaya Patra from Surya. Upon being exiled to the forest, Yudhishthira would face utter dejection sometimes as he would find himself unable to feed the people with him as well as the holy men, sages who would come by.

He performed some austerities that pleased Surya who blessed him and gave him the akshaya patra on akshaya tritiya – a vessel that would provide unlimited food in the day. This would enable him to look after his people. There are many more tales and beliefs that are well known about this day. In Vedic astrology, all gemstones can be instrumental in bringing good fortune.

However, Jupiter or Brihaspati is regarded as the harbinger of good fortune and thus his gem, the yellow sapphire is highly valued.
