Key Questions Answered
Sweeping or mopping the floor after sunset is believed to cause positive energy and wealth to leave the house in the form of waste, which obstructs the arrival of Goddess Lakshmi and leads to poverty and financial distress.
After sunset, you should avoid giving milk, curd, salt, onions, garlic, and money to neighbors or anyone else, as sharing these white-colored items and money in the evening is thought to cause Goddess Lakshmi to move to someone else's home and decline your financial condition.
In Hinduism, plucking Tulasi leaves, touching the plant, or watering it after sunset is considered a great sin because the Tulasi plant is worshipped as a form of Goddess Lakshmi. During the evening, one should only light a lamp and pray before the Tulasi altar without touching it.
