Dhan Teras 2014: Significance Of The Day

The name of Dhanteras comes from Dhanvantari, the lord of medicine. It is believed that during Samudra Manthan, a combat arose between the gods and demons. Then, Dhanvantari emerged from Kshira Sagar (ocean of milk) with a pot of Amrit (divine nectar). This came to be known as the advent of Ayurveda. Since then, this day is dedicated to Dhanvantri Dev.

The day is also popular as Yama Deep Daan, as the day also contain certain evidences that is associated with Lord Yama (lord of death). King Hima’s son was predicted to die because of snake’s bite on the fourth day of his marriage. When the prince’s wife came to know of this, she tried desperately to protect her husband’s life from his destined death. Even when, Lord Yama came in their house in the disguised form of a snake, the wife was finally able to put her devotion into practicality. Thus, she saved her husband from death. This represents the elimination of darkness, as death symbolizes darkness.
Hopefully, now you would be able to honor the day with high reverence. If you devote yourself at the lord of divinity with a true heart, you will definitely be blessed. Have a Happy Dhanteras in 2014!

Always be very cautious, when some main planets i.e. Rahu, Ketu, Jupiter & Lord Saturn are changing their houses. It may be that certain sectors which were continuously getting support for long time may stop receiving support due to change in position by above planets & stocks of those sectors starts coming down, resulting in losses. This is common reason, why most people loss money.

One should trade only in the stocks of that sectors which are getting very strong astrologically support.

Sectors which get very strong ASTROLOGICAL support are not normally affected by downfall in the market.
