Puja & purchase window
5:47 AM — 12:52 PM
The "undiminishing" day — what begins today is said to endure.
About the day
Vaishakha Shukla Tritiya is one of the rare self-auspicious days (svayam-siddha muhurta): beginnings, purchases of gold and property, and charity are considered fruitful without a separate muhurta.
How it is observed
Begin something you intend to keep — and give something away. Purchases are traditionally made in the morning.
