Let's learn from astrologer Pandit Ramesh Bhojraj Dwivedi about some of the measures you should try on Vaishakh Amavasya to allay the displeasure of ancestors.

Perform Tarpan for ancestors on Vaishakh Amavasya

On the day of Vaishakh Amavasya, after bathing early in the morning, face south and perform Tarpan (offering) in the name of your ancestors. Performing Tarpan near a holy river is considered more auspicious. On this day, mix black sesame seeds in water and offer it to your ancestors. Performing Tarpan brings peace to the souls of your ancestors, and the ancestors, pleased with their health, bless their descendants.

Donate to the poor and needy on Vaishakh Amavasya

Donating essential items to the needy on Vaishakh Amavasya will bring you the blessings of your ancestors. Donating on this day is considered very important for the peace of your ancestors. Donating black sesame seeds, rice, clothing, food, or money on this day is especially important. Feeding Brahmins or those in need on this day can alleviate the displeasure of your ancestors.

Worship the Peepal tree on Vaishakh Amavasya

If you worship the Peepal tree on Vaishakh Amavasya and light a lamp in front of it , prosperity will prevail in your life and the souls of your ancestors will find peace. Offer water to the Peepal tree on this day and light a mustard oil lamp in the evening. It is believed that ancestors reside in the Peepal tree, so worshipping this tree ensures the blessings of ancestors and alleviates their displeasure.

Chant the Pitru Stotra on Vaishakh Amavasya

Chanting mantras in the name of your ancestors on Vaishakh Amavasya is considered extremely fruitful. Chanting the mantra "Om Pitrudevaya Namah" on this day can be beneficial.
