Talk about Pushya Nakshatra and something that
immediately comes to the mind is gold. The
significance of the day is the favorable alignment of
astrological stars, which is considered special for
beginning new ventures and purchases. When Pushya
Nakshatra falls on a Thursday it is considered even
more auspicious and it is referred as Guru Pushya
Nakshatra.

Hindu calendar. Some of the Pushya Nakshatra days in

But most people opt for Guru Pushya Nakshatra day and
ignore the normal days.


According to Hindu astrological beliefs the favorable
alignment of the stars on this Pushya Nakshatra day
results in prosperity, success and happiness.
Therefore it considered to be the most auspicious day
in a year to make investments and purchases.


Thanks to the effective campaign conducted by
Jewellery shops, Pushya Nakshatra day for many means
the right day in the Hindu calendar to buy gold
ornaments. In India, gold is still considered to be an
ideal investment and many people make it a point to
purchase gold, gems and jewelry on this day.


Pushya means ‘to nourish’ and therefore a person can
think beyond gold investment on this day. Nowadays
there are several better and precious opportunities of investment
other than gold.
