Indian mythology by doing the following tasks. Any or all of these, one can select as per one's
convenience.

 Donating in charity a piece of pale yellow cloth on any Thursday keeps Jupiter pleased.
 Feed an Ox with Gud (Raw Sugar) and gram pulse on Thursdays.
 Wearing Pukhraj (Topaz) on the Index finger on any Thursday is considered to bring in
pleasing results. The ring should be continuously worn for a long period starting from
any Thursday.
 Distributing sweets and donating Gold or Copper on Thursdays, if the budget allows.
 Worshipping Lord Shiva by pouring some Butter oil on Shiva Linga daily is another way
to seek the blessings of Jupiter. Do it for a week.
