Varalakshmi Vratam also known as Varalakshmi Pooja is an important Hindu festival celebrated in the honour of Goddess Lakshmi. Varalakshmi Vratam is primarily observed by married women to receive blessings from Varalakshmi, a manifestation of Goddess Lakshmi. Varalakshmi is the bestower of 'Var' or 'Varam' meaning boons.
It is observed on the second Friday or on the Friday just before Poornima of Shravan month (Aadi month in the Tamil calendar). It corresponds to the months of July or August. This year it falls on this day, Friday, August 20, 2021.

The main objective of Varalaksmi Vratam is to offer genuine prayers to Goddess Lakshmi to seek Divine blessings. There are no strict rules for observing this vrat. The rituals are not rigid and even a simple prayer is enough to appease Goddess Varalakshmi. Women, particularly married ones, perform this vrat to please Goddess Lakshmi and receive Her divine grace. They pray to the Goddess for the long life of their husbands and seek blessings for children.
