Day 1 Evening – Vastu Shanti & Rakshogna Homam:

In Telugu households, before entering a new home, Vastu Shanti Homam and Rakshogna Homam are performed to remove any Vastu Dosha and clear negative energies created during construction.

Day 2 Morning – Entering the Home & Pooja Rituals:

• Gau Pooja (Aavupooja): Worshipping a cow is an important tradition in Telugu households. The first being to enter the house is often a cow (Aavideegam), as it is considered a symbol of purity and divine blessings.
• Entering the Home (Gruhapravesham): The homeowners enter while carrying a Kalasham (sacred pot) filled with Ganga Jal, turmeric, and mango leaves, symbolizing divine energy and purification.
• Milk Boiling Ceremony (Palu Ponginchadam): Boiling milk till it overflows is a well-known Telugu tradition, symbolizing abundance, prosperity, and good fortune. The first offering is made to the deities.
• Ganapathi Pooja & Homam: Lord Ganesha is worshipped first to remove obstacles and bring auspiciousness.
• Maha Sankalpam & Punyahavachanam: This purifies the house and blesses the family members with positivity.

Main Homams Performed:

1. Ganapathi Homam – To remove obstacles and ensure smooth life in the new home.
2. Lakshmi Kubera Homam – Invoking Goddess Lakshmi and Lord Kubera for wealth and prosperity.
3. Navagraha Homam – Seeking the blessings of the nine planets for good fortune.
