Ashadha Purnima 2026: The observance of Ashadha Purnima, which includes fasting, ritual bathing, and charitable acts, is set for Wednesday, July 29. According to the Hindu almanac, the lunar day of Ashadha Purnima begins at 6:18 PM on July 28 and continues until 8:05 PM on July 29. Devotees typically fast and offer prayers to Goddess Lakshmi and the Moon on this day. For those experiencing financial difficulties or seeking new income sources, engaging in specific remedies on Ashadha Purnima can be beneficial in pleasing Goddess Lakshmi, potentially leading to improved financial stability and overall happiness.

**Optimal Timing for Wealth Rituals on Ashadha Purnima**
Astrological remedies aimed at enhancing wealth should be performed during the *Pradosh Kaal* (the twilight period) on Ashadha Purnima. The *Nishita Kaal* (midnight period) is also ideal for energizing mantras. The *Pradosh Kaal* commences after 7:21 PM, while the *Nishita Muhurat* (auspicious midnight timing) is from 12:07 AM to 12:49 AM on July 30. Notably, *Priti* and *Ayushman* Yogas will be present on this day.

**Wealth Remedies for Ashadha Purnima**
To attract wealth, it is recommended to worship Lord Ganesha and Lord Kuber alongside Goddess Lakshmi during the *Pradosh Kaal*. Solely worshipping Goddess Lakshmi may not ensure lasting wealth; including Lord Ganesha and Lord Kuber helps secure *Sthir Lakshmi* (stable wealth).

As night falls on Ashadha Purnima, light a lamp made of *ghee* (clarified butter) and offer it to Goddess Lakshmi and other deities in your prayer space. Create a *Rangoli* design at your home’s entrance and place the lamp on it, keeping the entrance open while the lamp burns. Avoid sweeping the house during *Pradosh Kaal*. After worshipping Goddess Lakshmi, chant the Mahalakshmi mantra using a lotus seed rosary (*Kamalgatta*). The Mahalakshmi mantra is: *Om Shreem Hreem Shreem Kamale Kamalalaye Praseeda Praseeda Om Shreem Hreem Shreem Om Mahalakshmyai Namah*. Alternatively, you can chant Goddess Lakshmi’s *Beej Mantra* (*Om Hreem Shreem Lakshmibhyo Namah*) or the wealth-attracting mantra (*Om Shreem Mahalakshmyai Namah*), which can also be recited during the *Nishita Muhurat*.

For family happiness and prosperity, worship Lord Narayana alongside Goddess Lakshmi on the evening of Ashadha Purnima. With the blessings of Lakshmi-Narayana, marital bliss is assured. Present lotus flowers to both Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Vishnu on this auspicious day.

On the evening of Ashadha Purnima, consider wearing a tortoise-shaped silver ring on your right index finger. The tortoise symbolizes Lord Vishnu, who took the form of *Kurma* (the tortoise). Wearing this ring is believed to enhance happiness, prosperity, and wealth.
