Kumkum is considered very sacred in Hinduism. During the marriage, not only the bride-to-be but also all the women of the house apply Kumkum on their feet. Even when the new bride comes to her in-law's house, the impression of her feet is taken through kumkum.
Astrology expert DrRadhakant Vats says that Kumkum is not only an integral part of women's grooming but applying it on feet or hands also brings many astrological benefits. Applying kumkum and especially on the feet of women is an indicator of the arrival of Maa Lakshmi in the house. Mother Lakshmi's abode remains in the house.
- The colour of Kumkum is red. The red colour is associated with good luck and Maa Lakshmi.
- It is believed that there is no shortage of money in the house where women apply kumkum on their feet. The house is always full of wealth and peace is established in the house.
- Mars is blessed by applying kumkum on the feet because the colour of Mars is also red and the colour of kumkum is also red. In such a situation, the women of the house who apply kumkum on their feet, they or any member of their family do not have to face MangalDosha.
- It is believed that Goddess Parvati also loves Kumkum very much. Mata Parvati also applies kumkum on the feet of Lord Shiv. In such a situation, the women of the house who apply kumkum on their feet, their married life is always full of happiness, love and prosperity and they get full support of their life partner.
- There is a description in astrology that the house where the virgin girl applies kumkum on her feet, she gets a life partner like Shiva and in her in-law's house, she gets a lot of love from every relationship. By applying Kumkum on the feet, inauspiciousness does not come into the house.
