Akshaya Tritiya Special
Gold Activation — Friday Ritual
Seal the prosperity acquired on Akshaya Tritiya
Why Friday?
Akshaya Tritiya allows Lakshmi's energy to enter. The first Friday after it acts as a "seal" — permanently binding the acquired energy to the home. Venus (Shukra) especially loves metals, particularly silver and gold.
