Kartik Purnima 2025: The festival of Kartik Purnima is considered very sacred and auspicious according to the Hindu calendar. This day is not only important from religious point of view but also a symbol of energy balance and prosperity. This year the festival of Kartik Purnima is being celebrated on Wednesday, 5th November. Bathing, donating and donating lamps have special significance on this day. It is believed that every auspicious work done on this day gives manifold results. For this reason, the tradition of buying items made of clay on this day is considered very old.
Soil is one of the five elements and is considered the basis of balance of life. When we keep items made of clay in our house, it balances the energy of the five elements. This increases the flow of positive energy in the house and receives the blessings of Gods and Goddesses.
People often choose metal for religious idols, but on the day of Kartik Purnima, clay idols hold special significance. Idols of Gods and Goddesses made of clay bring positive energy into the house and the effect of worship increases manifold.
Buying an earthen lamp and lighting it on Kartik Purnima is considered auspicious. It is said that lighting an earthen lamp removes negative energy from the house and brings purity in the environment. This deity also symbolizes the worship of Lord Vishnu and Mother Lakshmi on the occasion of Diwali.
Buying an earthen pot on the day of Kartik Purnima is considered very auspicious. It brings coolness, stability and good fortune to the house. If a big pot is not possible, then a small pot made of clay is equally auspicious. It is advised to keep it in the north-east direction of the house.
On this day, there is a tradition of buying an elephant made of clay and keeping it in the north direction of the house. According to Vastu Shastra, elephant is a symbol of power, intelligence and wealth. Keeping it in the house increases financial prosperity and maintains the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi.
