Bhubaneswar: Dhanteras, a festival traditionally celebrated in North India, has gained widespread acceptance in Odisha, particularly among the younger generation. This auspicious day, marking the beginning of Diwali festivities is now observed with great enthusiasm across the state.

Historically, Odias celebrate Akshaya Tritiya as the primary festival for buying new possessions. However, with changing times, Dhanteras has become an integral part of Odisha’s cultural landscape. People from all walks of life now eagerly participate in the festivities, embracing the spirit of prosperity and good fortune.

What To Buy And Not To Buy On Dhanteras

The word ‘Dhanteras’ combines ‘Dhan’ (wealth) and ‘Teras’ (thirteenth day of Krishna Paksha). This day is considered ideal for purchasing valuable items, particularly gold jewellery, which symbolizes success and prosperity. Besides, people purchase items made of brass, silver, and metal as it is believed that buying things on the day of Dhanteras will bring good fortune, success, and protection from the evil eye. Needless to say, Odia women these days leave no stone unturned to celebrate Dhanteras with pomp and gaiety. With Odisha celebrating Dhanteras today, let’s find out items to buy on Dhanteras that are symbolic of good fortune and prosperity and items which we should not buy as they release negative energy.

Also, people bring separate idols of Lord Ganesha and Goddess Lakshmi and pay reverence to these idols on Diwali, popular for their spiritual and financial significance.

That apart, Kuber yantra is brought home and placed inside the puja ghar where prayers are offered to ensure prosperity, according to astrologers.

It is auspicious to buy metal utensils on this day. The purchase of brass cutlery on this occasion is also symbolic of good fortune, according to astrologers.

However, there certain things which people should not buy on this day as they are considered inauspicious.

Iron Utensils/Items: Iron is deemed inauspicious, and associated with negative energies.

Glass Products: Linked to Rahu, glass items are best avoided.

Sharp Objects: Knives, scissors, pins, etc., can bring bad luck.

Black Items: Avoid anything black, as it’s connected to bad luck.

Shoes: Associated with Saturn (Shani), shoes represent hardship.

Plastic Items: Symbolizing cheapness and impermanence.
