Dhanteras 2027: Date, Muhurat and the Start of Diwali
Dhanteras 2027 falls on Wednesday, 27 October 2027 (as per current panchang), opening the five-day Diwali festival. It honours Dhanvantari, deity of health and Ayurveda, and Goddess Lakshmi.
Tradition of buying
Buying gold, silver, utensils or new items is considered auspicious, and the evening Lakshmi-Kubera puja is performed during the shubh muhurat to invite prosperity.
Health and wealth
By honouring Dhanvantari first, Dhanteras quietly reminds us that wellbeing is the foundation of all wealth.
The festival of wealth begins, fittingly, with a prayer for health.
