Dhanteras, the thirteenth day of the dark fortnight of the Hindu month of Ashwin, is a festival celebrated by Hindus in India and by some other Hindu communities around the world.
Dhanteras 2025, also known as Dhantrayodashi, is set to mark the beginning of the five-day Diwali festival on Saturday, October 18, 2025. This auspicious day is dedicated to welcoming wealth, health, and good fortune by honoring Goddess Lakshmi, Lord Kubera (the god of treasure), and Lord Dhanvantari (the god of Ayurveda). Families celebrate with great enthusiasm by meticulously cleaning and illuminating their homes with diyas to invite prosperity. The most significant tradition is purchasing new items, especially gold, silver, or new utensils, which is believed to symbolize the steady flow of wealth. The main evening ritual, the Dhanteras Puja, should ideally be performed during the Shubh Muhurat (auspicious time) from 07:16 PM to 08:20 PM, where a special Yama Deepam (lamp for the god of death) is lit outside the house to pray for the well-being and protection of the family, adding a deeper spiritual significance to the start of the grand festivities.
On this auspicious day, people worship Lord Dhanvantari, the God of Ayurveda and medicine, and Goddess Lakshmi, the Goddess of wealth and prosperity. They also buy gold, silver, or other precious items, such as jewelry, utensils, or appliances, as it is believed to bring good luck and fortune to the household. People also decorate their homes with rangoli, lamps, and flowers, and exchange gifts and sweets with their family and friends.
Dhanteras is a time to express gratitude, hope, and love, and to wish for a prosperous and peaceful year ahead. Here are some ways to share your Dhanteras greetings with your loved ones on social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
