According to celebrity astrologer Parduman Suri, Goddess Annapurna is the deity who provides food for the entire world.

On Annapurna Jayanti, donating oil, wheat, rice, lentils, and money to the needy ensures that one's house remains filled with grains and wealth. However, it is advised not to donate or give away the salt kept in the house on this day.

The kitchen should be kept completely clean on this day. Worship of Goddess Annapurna is performed in the kitchen, as it is through her grace that living beings receive food. To perform the worship, place an image of Goddess Annapurna and offer rice, turmeric, kumkum, incense, and flowers on the stove. Afterward, worship Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati, as Goddess Parvati is the embodiment of Annapurna. Light a ghee lamp in front of the picture of Goddess Annapurna and chant the Annapurna Stotra or her mantras. By doing this, prosperity in grains and wealth will remain in your home.
