How Dhanteras Is Celebrated
Dhanteras falls on the thirteenth day (Trayodashi) of the dark half of Kartik. Homes are cleaned and decorated with rangoli and small footprints of Lakshmi at the entrance. In the evening, families perform Lakshmi–Kuber puja and many light a Yama Deepam, a lamp placed facing south for the family's protection. Buying gold, silver, brass or steel utensils — or even a new broom — is considered auspicious. The day is also Dhanvantari Jayanti, which is why many wishes focus on health as well as wealth. When you send a wish, add the person's name and one personal line; it makes even a short message feel thoughtful.
