Ganesha is worshipped to remove all obstacles and ensure an auspicious beginning. Goddess Lakshmi, the deity of wealth and prosperity, is invoked to reside in the home. Kubera, the god of wealth, is worshipped. Vastu Purusha is worshipped to remedy Vastu defects. The family deity is worshipped. The nine planets are worshipped to maintain auspicious influence and peace in the house. There are specific times for all these pujas. Are you also buying a new house or flat in 2026?

Basant Panchami, Akshaya Tritiya, and Dussehra are considered extremely auspicious days for house-warming ceremonies. However, this year it's better not to perform auspicious ceremonies on Basant Panchami as Venus will be in retrograde. Also, it's better not to perform this puja during Khar month, Holashtak, Adhik month, and Pitru Paksha.
