Mumbai: Ganga Dussehra, a deeply revered festival in Sanatan Dharma, marks the sacred descent of the holy Ganga river to Earth. Celebrated with devotion across India, it is believed that bathing in the Ganga on this day washes away sins and brings divine blessings. According to ancient legends, it was on this very day that Goddess Lakshmi descended to Earth after Bhagirath’s intense penance. Also known as Jyestha Dashami, the festival carries immense spiritual and astrological significance.

This year, Ganga Dussehra will be observed on 5 June 2025, based on the Vedic Panchang. The Dashami tithi begins late at night on 4 June at 11:54 PM and ends at 2:15 AM on 6 June. Following the principle of Udaya Tithi (sunrise-based calculation), 5 June is considered the most auspicious day for rituals and remedies. Astrologers recommend specific actions on this day to help attract wealth, remove financial blockages, and usher in prosperity.

Powerful Astro Remedies to Perform on Ganga Dussehra

1. Remedy for Career Growth and Business Prosperity

If you’re struggling with finances or facing delays in starting a new venture, write the sacred “Ganga Stotra” (hymn to Goddess Ganga) on a clean piece of paper. After offering prayers to a Peepal tree, bury the paper beneath it. This is believed to activate powerful energy for financial upliftment and career growth.

2. Bathing Ritual for Success

Take a holy dip in the Ganga river. If you can’t access the river, mix a few drops of Gangajal (sacred Ganga water) into your bathwater. After bathing, perform an abhishek (ritual pouring) on a Shivling using Gangajal. Offer arghya (sun-water offering) to the Sun using a copper vessel filled with water, Gangajal, and a pinch of kumkum (vermilion). This ritual is said to enhance one’s chances of success in career and new beginnings.

3. Remedy for Peace at Home

To restore peace and positivity at home, sprinkle Gangajal in every corner of the house. Then, tie a black thread around a coconut, offer it during a Shivling abhishek, and immerse it in flowing water in the evening. This helps remove negativity and bring harmony into the household.

4. Donation for Liberation and Relief from Suffering

After bathing in the Ganga (or performing a symbolic bath), donate betel nuts, mangoes, a water-filled earthen pot, seasonal fruits, and other essentials. It is believed that such donations on Ganga Dussehra bring spiritual liberation (moksha) and relief from life’s sufferings.

In astrology, days like Ganga Dussehra are not just for rituals but also open rare cosmic windows to resolve lingering financial and emotional troubles. By combining faith with intention, you align your actions with planetary energies for real-world results.
