25 अगस्त को शुभ-लाभ और समृद्धि के दाता गौरी पुत्र गणेश उत्सव प्रारंभ होगा। इस द‌िन सभी राश‌ियों के ल‌िए व‌िशेष लाभ होगा। लेक‌िन इस द‌िन रात को एक काम भूलकर भी न करेंगे। अगर ऐसा क‌‌िया तो इसका बुरा परिणाम हो सकता है।

गणेश चतुर्थी इस बार अपार खुशियां लेकर आ रही है। इस दिन 58 साल बाद कई विशेष संयोग भी बन रहे हैं। जिसकी वजह से गणेश चतुर्थी और अधिक खास हो गई है। वहीं इसके प्रभाव से शन‌िदेव का भी असर सभी राश‌ियों पर रहेगा। बस इस द‌‌िन चांद न देखें।

गणेश चतुर्थी पर सबसे ज्यादा ध्यान रखने वाली बात यह है कि उस दिन कोई भी चाँद न देखें। मान्यता है कि गणेश चतुर्थी पर चाँद देखने से झूठा चोरी का आरोप या या कलंक लगने का डर रहता है। वैसे तो सभी शुक्ल पक्ष की चतुर्थी को चाँद देखने की मनाही है, लेकिन खास तौर पर भाद्र शुक्ल चतुर्थी को इसे देखना बिल्कुल वर्जित रहता है

गणेश चतुर्थी से शनि सीधी चाल चलेंगे। इससे शनि का प्रकोप कम होगा। जो भक्त गणेश को अपने घर लाकर पूजा-अर्चना करेगा। उस पर वर्षभर गणेश की कृपा बनी रहेगी। न्यायाधिपति शनिदेव 25 अगस्त की शाम 5 बजकर 19 मिनट पर वृश्चिक राशि में मार्गी हो रहे हैं।

इस बार 58 साल बाद शनि की मार्गीय में गणेश जी विराजेंगे। शनि के मार्गीय होने से सभी राशियों में बेहतर प्रभाव देखने को मिलेगा। गणेश स्थापना के समय शनि के मार्गीय होने की शुभ घड़ी वर्ष 1959 में बनी थी। शनि के मार्गीय होने के दिन हस्त नक्षत्र में अमृत योग, रवि योग, शुभ योग एवं सूर्य, बुध दिव्य योग में गणेश जी की स्थापना होगी। गणेश जी की उपासना करने वालों से शनिदेव हमेशा प्रसन्न रहते हैं। 

Lord Ganesha's homecoming is celebrated in the month of Bhadra, according to the Hindu Luni-Solar calendar, which typically falls in the months of August or September. The festival ends on the tenth day of bringing him home, to signify his return to Mount Kailasha to his parents Goddess Parvati and Lord Shiva. This year, Ganesha Chaturthi 2017 will begin on 25th August and end on 5th September. Of all the festivals in India, Ganesha Chaturthi is one of the most colourful and exciting 10-day long celebrations. Ganeshotsav or Vinayaka Chaturthi is celebrated all over India with a lot of enthusiasm in order to commemorate Lord Ganesha's birthday. Ganesh Chaturthi is observed by installing Lord Ganesha's idol at home for a period of 10 days after which it is immersed in the river. This Ganesh Chaturthi let us get to know the festival in detail - its significance and other associated rituals and traditions.

History of Ganesh Chaturthi

The auspicious festival of Ganesha Chaturthi is celebrated with much fervor and joy in the states of Maharashtra, Goa, Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Out of all the stories that are linked with the history of this festival, the most relevant one is associated with his parents Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati. It is believed that Goddess Parvati created little Ganesha using the dirt off her body while having a bath and sent him to guard the door while she was bathing. Lord Shiva, who had gone out, returned at that time. Unknowingly, little Ganesha stopped him from entering. An enraged Lord Shiva severed the head of the little child after a heated argument. Looking at an angered and vexed Goddess Parvati, Lord Shiva promised her to give Ganesha a new life. The followers were sent to search for a head; however all they could bring was a head of an elephant. Lord Shiva fixed the elephant's head on the child and brought him back to life. That's how he was named Gajanan.

Celebrations During Ganesha Chaturthi

Two-three months before the festival, beautiful clay models of Lord Ganesha are made by skilled artisans and sold in the markets. These beautiful statues depict Lord Ganesha in various poses. On the day of Ganesha Chaturthi, these statues are brought home with lot of excitement. For the next 10 days, localities witness beautiful pandals with huge statues of Ganesha. The priests in every pandal perform four main holy rituals- first being Pranapratishhtha to invoke life into the statues amidst the chanting of sacred verses. The ritual is then followed by Shhodashopachara- 16 forms of paying tribute to the Lord. Next one is Uttarpuja, which is a pooja in which the idol could be shifted from one place to another and the last ritual is Ganpati Visarjan, which is the immersion of the idol in water. The visarjan is followed by loud chanting of "Ganpati Bappa Morya, Pudcha Varshi Lokar Ya", which means Lord Ganesha, come back soon next year.
