In Hindu tradition, Wednesday is dedicated to Budhdev, the God associated with the planet Mercury (Budh). Worshipping him on this day is believed to bring overall happiness in life. Interestingly, Wednesday is also observed as the day of Lord Ganesha, the remover of obstacles and the god of beginnings. Therefore, it is considered highly auspicious to worship both Budhdev and Lord Ganesha on Wednesdays. Devotees who observe fasts on Wednesday are believed to receive the following blessings:

1. Fasting on Wednesdays regularly brings happiness in life.

2. The devotee experiences abundance and won’t face any kind of lack or financial hardship.

3. Fasting pacifies the inauspicious planetary influences.

4. Fasting on Wednesday sharpens the mind and improve decision-making.

5. Offering white flowers and green-colored items on this day pleases both Budhdev and Lord Ganesha.

6. Feeding Brahmins and donating on Wednesdays ensures a joyful and fulfilling life.
