Appeasing Lord Saturn - Shani Sadhana

If there is anything that the knowledgeable of astrology fear most it is the Dasa or the period of Saturn. And no wonder, for even if Saturn is a benefic in one's horoscope, it does show some of its natural ill effects during the Dasa.

And if by chance it is a malefic in the horoscope then it could simply unbalance life and make one go through unimaginable and unforeseeable trials and tribulations during this nineteen year long period.

However it is not a lost case altogether if you are currently in the Dasa of Shani (Saturn period).

There are so many popular ways to make Saturn favourable. Many believe that there is no cure for it. Others resort to rituals through priests which could or could not work. Some believe that wearing iron rings or  stones or giving away black cloth and mustard oil on Saturdays could negate the effect. Not that these methods are futile but the best way to counter the fury of Saturn is a Sadhana as prescribed by our Rishi.

Through these Sadhanas devised by the great Yogis, who were master astrologers as well, one could not just nullify Saturn's negative effect but also make it favourable so that it could benefic results in its Dasa. And know it that once one has appeased Saturn there there is no looking back for the person in terms of success and fame earned.

Saturn also rules over professionals like engineering, medicine, politics, police and army, explosives and industry. So any one related to these fields could also try Saturn Sadhana for more success.

Presented here is a wonderful Saturn Sadhana that has been tried with amazing results by Sadhaks over the ages. Lord Krishna himself made Arjun accomplish this Sadhana before the start of Mahabharat war and no wonder Arujun  remained invincible in the battle.

Try this Sadhana on any Saturday. It has to be repeated on three consecutive Saturdays.

In the night of a Satuday after 10pm have a bath and wear black clothes. Sit in a black mat or blanket facing the South.

Cover a wooden seat with a black cloth and on it make a mound of black sesame seeds. On the mound place        the Shani Yantra.

Then contemplate on the form of Lord Saturn chanting the following verse.

Om Shanno Deveerabhishtaya Aapo Bhavantu Peetaye Shanyorabhistrabhavantu Nah

After this make a mark of saffron on the Yantra and light a mustard oil lamp. Then pray to lord Saturn to free you of all obstacles, fears, problems, pains and afflictions. Then chant one round of Guru Mantra and pray to the Guru for success in the Sadhana.

Then with a Black Hakeek Rosary chant eleven rounds of the following Mantra.

Om Sham Shaneishcharaay Namah

Repeat this Sadhana on three consecutive Saturdays. Before Sadhana on each Saturday during the day give away black sesame seeds, black cloth, iron made objects and black lentils as gifts to a poor needy person.

After Sadhana drop the Sadhana articles in a river or pond. This is a very powerful and one of the best Sadhanas for appeasing Saturn and through it sure enough one could gain blessings and benefic effects of Saturday and achieve remarkable success even during the Dasa of the naturally malefic planet.
