Akshaya Tritiya 2025: Akshaya Tritiya, also known as Akha Teej, is one of the most auspicious days in the Hindu calendar. The word Akshaya in Sanskrit means "that which never diminishes." According to Vedic astrology, many lunar and solar tithis can sometimes be omitted or lost during a calendar month, but the Tritiya Tithi of the Shukla Paksha in the month of Vaishakha never wanes, making it truly "Akshaya."

This day is dedicated to Goddess Parvati, and is considered an Abujh Muhurat, meaning a time so auspicious that any significant activity can be performed without consulting a traditional almanac. Activities such as marriage, engagement, housewarming, starting a new business, and other ventures can be initiated on this day for success and good fortune.

Mythological And Spiritual Significance:

Akshaya Tritiya marks the beginning of the Satya Yuga and Treta Yuga, and also signifies the end of the Dvapara Yuga, earning it the title Yugadi Tithi or the beginning of a new era. It is believed that on this day, three avatars of Lord Vishnu incarnated, and the holy river Ganga descended upon the Earth. Additionally, the Char Dham Yatra commences from this sacred date, enhancing its religious significance.
