Spiritual Significance

Pushya = nourisher, considered the most auspicious of 27 nakshatras. Thursday (Guru) brings wisdom + dharma. Combined Guru-Pushya = peak prosperity-growth window. Pushya means "to nourish" — investments grow, knowledge nourishes, marriages flourish. Considered swayam-siddha (self-empowered) — cancels minor inauspiciousness.

How to Calculate

Calendar lookup — Drikpanchang publishes "Guru Pushya" highlights monthly. Approximately every 27 days when Pushya falls on Thursday. Pre-Diwali Guru Pushya considered most auspicious gold-buying day of entire year.
