Holi Bhai Dooj 2026: 5 Easy Remedies To Make Brother-Sisters’ Luck Shine Bright
1. Saffron and Sandalwood Tilak
On Bhai Dooj, a sister should apply a saffron and white sandalwood tilak to her brother's forehead. According to astrology, the combination of saffron and sandalwood provides peace of mind and enhances the brother's concentration. This remedy is very helpful in removing obstacles in the brother's career and leading him to success. Chanting the mantra "Om Namo Bhagwate Vasudevaya" while applying the tilak is even more auspicious.
2. Gift of a Dry Coconut (Gola)
On this day, it is considered very auspicious for a sister to gift a dry coconut to her brother. According to mythology, Yamuna also gifted a dry coconut to her brother Yamraj. This symbolises the brother's long life and good health. The brother should preserve this coconut, which will ensure prosperity in the home and prevent bitterness between the brother and sister.

3. Perform Deep Daan
In the evening, a brother and sister should light a four-sided lamp at the main entrance of the house or on the banks of a holy river. This lamp donation is done to show respect to Yamraj and to protect the family from any unexpected calamity. Doing so eliminates the fear of untimely death and brings happiness and prosperity in life. This remedy is also helpful in alleviating financial difficulties.
4. Donation of Yellow Clothes
Lord Vishnu loves the colour yellow and is considered a symbol of happiness and good fortune. On Bhai Dooj, a brother and sister should jointly donate yellow clothes or yellow sweets to a needy person. This strengthens the planet Jupiter in their horoscope, bringing good luck and achieving new heights in education or business.
