Ganesh Ji: The festival of Ganesh Chaturthi is about to come, but before that, on Wednesday, September 4, there is an auspicious coincidence of getting the blessings of Lord Ganesha. The special thing is that on this day, the transit of Mercury is happening in Leo.
In Hinduism, every day is dedicated to some deity or the other. According to astrology, Wednesday is considered to be the day of Lord Ganesha. Wednesday is the day of gaining wisdom. In Sanatan Dharma, it is believed that any auspicious work should be started with the worship of Lord Ganesha.
Ganesha is considered to be the deity of Mercury, therefore Lord Ganesha is worshipped on Wednesday. By worshipping Lord Ganesha on Wednesday, a person gets the blessings of Ganapati and this also strengthens the position of Mercury in the horoscope. It is believed in the Puranas that worshipping Ganesha is beneficial in removing the Saturn Dosha and also for protection from enemies. That is why Ganesha is also called Vighnaharta.
Why is Lord Ganesha worshipped only on Wednesday?
According to the legend, when Goddess Parvati created Lord Ganesha, it was Wednesday. At that time, Lord Budh was also present on Mount Kailash, so it became a rule to worship Lord Ganesha on Wednesday.
There is another belief that when Lord Shiva failed to kill Tripurasura, the reason for his defeat was believed to be that Lord Shiva started the battle without worshiping Ganesha. Then Ganesha was worshipped according to the complete rites and laddus were offered to him. After this, when the war took place, Tripurasura was defeated. This is the reason why Lord Ganesha is worshipped before every work, so that there is no hindrance in the work.
