Navgraha Shanti

Harmonise the nine planets for clarity and smoother days.

Offered to Navgraha

About this puja

A puja to the nine celestial influences: Surya, Chandra, Mangal, Budh, Guru, Shukra, Shani, Rahu and Ketu. Each graha is invoked with its own mantra, colour, grain and samidha, followed by a Navgraha havan.

Why it is performed

Recommended when the horoscope shows malefic planetary periods (dasha) or when life feels persistently obstructed. Pacifying the grahas is believed to reduce hardship and strengthen the positive influences in one's chart.
