Why Bury Silver Snakes and Coins in Home Foundations? Astrologer Explains

• Bhoomi Pujan, a land worship ceremony, is performed before new house construction to ensure happiness and prosperity.
• During Bhoomi Pujan, a pot containing silver snake idols, a tortoise, coins, turmeric, and betel nut is buried in the ground.
• Astrologer Manotpal Jha from Purnia explains this tradition is ancient and rooted in Sanatan Dharma scriptures.
• Silver snake idols symbolize Nag Lok, on which the earth rests, offering protection to the house.
• Coins represent Goddess Lakshmi for prosperity, and a water-filled pot signifies abundance and Varun Dev's blessings, warding off Vastu defects.

Why It Matters: Burying specific items during Bhoomi Pujan ensures prosperity, protection, and Vastu compliance for new homes.
