“Vara” means “boon,” so this is the day when Divine Mother grants all of our noble wishes. The worship of Sri Vara Lakshmi on Vara Lakshmi Vratam bestows good health, knowledge, good discrimination, family welfare, noble positions, fame, prestige and wealth. Worshipping the Goddess Varalakshmi on this day is equivalent to worshipping Ashtalakshmi – the eight goddesses of Wealth, Earth, Wisdom, Love, Fame, Peace, Contentment, and Strength.

Significance of Lakshmi Pooja

The name Vishnu really means pervading everywhere, and Lakshmi his consort, is symbolical of the forces found everywhere.  As health, wealth and prosperity depend upon the rhythmic play of the Ashtalakshmi or eightforces, the worship of Lakshmi is said to be to obtain these three. Hence this festival is celebrated and Vrata is observed for invoking the blessings of Sri Vara Lakshmi for the welfare of their Sowbhagyam (marital bliss), Santana (children) and Sakala Ishta Kamya Phala Siddhi (have all the desired boons fulfilled), prosperity, and spiritual prosperity in this Vratham.
