Friday, governed by Venus, is associated with prosperity, knowledge, and growth. This day is particularly significant for the veneration of Goddess Lakshmi, who represents wealth, prosperity, and beauty. Her eight forms, known as Ashta Lakshmi, embody various aspects of abundance: Adi Lakshmi (spiritual prosperity), Dhanya Lakshmi (agricultural bounty), Dhairya Lakshmi (bravery), Gaja Lakshmi (regality), Santana Lakshmi (fertility and family well-being), Vijaya Lakshmi (triumph), Vidya Lakshmi (knowledge), and Aishwarya Lakshmi (opulence). By seeking blessings from each form of Maa Lakshmi on Fridays, individuals can strive for all-around growth and fulfillment in life.
