Akshaya Tritiya is considered as ‘Aboojh Muhurat’ and is often used to perform many auspicious events of life. However, in the year 2024, marriage and other auspicious functions such Grih Parvesh (Housewarming), engagement ceremony will not be performed as Jupiter & Venus are combust and during this time such functions are prohibited.

When evaluating a marriage, astrology looks to Jupiter and Venus, each of which has special effects. When Jupiter is well-placed, it can enhance marital peace and success. Jupiter is known as the marriage significator for females, representing wisdom and growth. The timing of marriage is likewise impacted by its transits and dashas. Venus, the planet of love and connections, is the male natal planet for marriage, impacting the standard of the marital bond and related financial luxuries.
Nevertheless, their beneficial effects are lessened when either planet is combust—too near the Sun—in the natal chart. Combust Venus can alter how love and devotion are expressed, which could result in discontent and financial conflicts in marriage, while Combust Jupiter may lessen wisdom and understanding in partnerships.

Ideally, one should avoid marriage on Akshaya Tritiya in 2024 as Jupiter & Venus are combust on the day. However, if one need to get married in emergency, then marriage can be performed with suitable parihaar of Jupiter & Venus. One of powerful parihaar includes atleast 5 lakh mantra chanting of Jupiter & Venus each prior to marriage and other suitable remedies.
