Dhanteras 😊
The festival of Dhanteras is also known as Dhantrayodashi and Dhanvantari Trayodashi (Dhanwantari Trayodashi).
This festival marks the beginning of the Diwali celebrations and that is why, it is considered the first day of five days long festivities of Diwali.
The term 'Dhanteras' consists of two factors 'dhan', which means wealth and 'teras', which means thirteenth. Here thirteenth is meant to indicate the day 'Trayodashi', i.e. the thirteenth day of the month on which Dhanteras falls..
It is believed that new "Dhan" or some form of precious metal is a sign of good luck😊
