Powerful Shani Mantras

Lord Shani is known by various names in Astrology, including Shani Dev, Shani Maharaj, Chayyaputra, and others. He is revered in Hindu mythology. Lord Shani, known as the harbinger of bad luck and retribution, is the seventh of the nine planets (Navagraha) that govern the world.

Shani dev (or planet Saturn), the son of Surya Dev (the Sun) and Chhaya, is also believed to be Yama’s (the God of Death) brother and is often referred to as the God of Justice and Karma.

Shani derives from the word “Sanaischara,” which means “slow mover.” The Sanskrit word “Shani” means “the planet Saturn,” and the word “Chara” means “movement.” Shanivara (Saturday) is the day dedicated to Shani Bhagwan according to the Hindu calendar.

Lord Shani is sometimes thought to be an incarnation of Lord Vishnu, who is responsible for bringing people the fruits of their karma in this life.

Planetary positions, according to Vedic astrology, determine an individual’s future. As a result, anyone born under the influence of Shani (Saturn) is thought to be predisposed to accidents, failures, wealth, or health problems. Hindus perform the Shani mantra Jaap on a regular basis to ward off evil and bad luck. This assists them in overcoming the 7.5-year bad luck phase known as the Sade Sathi.

Shani Dev goes through each zodiac sign in about 2-2.5 years, a period known as Dhaiya. Any horoscope sign afflicted by Lord Shani or under Dhaiya may experience conflicts, disruptions, unwelcome struggles, and, in extreme cases, death. To avoid the negative effects, believers must chant the Shani mantras on a regular basis.

The Birth Story of Lord Shani

To appease Lord Shiva, Chhaya performed severe penance sitting under the dazzling Sun, while Lord Shani was in her womb. Pleased with Chhaya’s penance, the celestial beings showered their divine blessings on the baby in her womb and thus Lord Shani became a great devotee of Lord Shiva. While in Chhaya’s womb, Lord Shani kept growing as she sat under the Sun. The Sun therefore scorned him when he was born, and the Sun God even refused to accept him as his own. It is thus believed that the enraged Lord Shani cast his gaze upon his father, Suryadev, who was also charred as black.

People misunderstand Lord Shani for being cruel and easily enraged; however, He is in fact a very benevolent God – albeit a strict one. He is generous and kind, but he expects a reliable lifestyle and that one acts justly and fairly. He is therefore known as the God of Justice for the same reason.
