Step-by-Step Friday Puja Vidhi For Lakshmi Ji And Santoshi Mata

Friday rituals begin early in the morning with a bath, followed by cleaning the home, an essential step, as cleanliness is believed to welcome Goddess Lakshmi. A clean entrance and puja space are considered signs of respect and are believed to attract positive energy and financial growth.

Devotees wear white clothes and prepare the puja altar with flowers, a lamp and incense sticks. Offerings usually include jaggery, roasted gram and sugar candy. Lighting a diya and reciting Lakshmi mantras or Santoshi Mata’s prayers helps increase positivity and devotion.

Concluding the puja with an aarti and a heartfelt prayer for peace, prosperity and fulfilment of wishes is believed to strengthen one’s spiritual energy. Those who observe the Friday fast with discipline and sincerity are believed to receive the blessings of both goddesses, improving marital happiness and inviting sustained prosperity into their lives.
