The last phase of the holy month of Saavan is going on and the last Saturday of Saavan falling during this period is considered extremely rare and auspicious from religious and astrological point of view. According to the beliefs of Sanatan Dharma, Lord Shiva is the supreme guru of Shanidev, the god of justice. It is mentioned in the mythology that Shanidev, separated from the glory of his father Suryadev, performed rigorous penance for Lord Bholenath, after which Mahadev gave him the highest position of magistrate and giver of karma among the nine planets. This is the reason that when Saturday falls in the holy month of Saavan, both Mahadev and Shanidev are pleased together by the worship done on that day. If there is mental stress, obstacles in work, financial constraints or physical illnesses due to Saturn’s Sadesati, Dhaiya, Mahadasha or Antardasha in your horoscope, then the last Saturday of Sawan is considered to be the best opportunity to get relief from all these pains.
Rare coincidence of Sawan and Saturday: Why does Shani Dev calm down by worshiping Mahadev?
In Vedic astrology, Saturn is considered to be the slowest moving and most influential planet. Shani Dev gives auspicious and inauspicious results to a person depending on his deeds. When a person is under the influence of Saturn’s Sadesati (period of seven and a half years) or Dhaiya (period of two and a half years), he has to go through severe tests on many fronts of life. However, according to astrology, Shanidev never causes unnecessary trouble to the true devotees of Lord Shiva. In the month of Sawan, when the stream of devotion to Shiva is flowing all around, worshiping Shanidev at that time calms his cruel gaze and he showers his gentle blessings on the seeker. Special rituals performed on the last Saturday of Sawan have the power to reduce the negative effects of Shani Dosha throughout the year.
To get relief from the troubles of Sadesati and Dhaiya, do these 3 surefire remedies on the last Saturday of Sawan.
If you are facing the wrath of Shani Dev or constant problems in life, then do these three things with devotion and rules on the last Saturday of Sawan:
1. Perform Rudrabhishek by offering black sesame seeds, raw milk and Shami patra on Shivling.
The first and foremost solution for pacifying Shani Dosh is to take refuge in Lord Mahadev, the God of Gods. On the last Saturday morning of Sawan, take bath in Brahma Muhurta and wear clean clothes. After this, go to the nearby pagoda and instead of copper or bronze pot, mix pure Ganga water, raw cow’s milk and black sesame seeds in a brass or silver vessel. Facing north, offer this water slowly on Shivling while chanting ‘Om Namah Shivay’ and Shani Mantra ‘Om Sham Shanaishcharaya Namah’. After this, offer at least 11 or 21 Shami leaves and Belpatra on Shivling. According to religious beliefs, Shami tree is very dear to Shani Dev and when Shami Patra is dedicated to Lord Shiva, Shani Dev is immediately pleased and eliminates the painful effects of Sadesati and Dhaiya from the horoscope of the person.
2. Four-sided mustard oil lamp and parikrama under the Peepal tree after sunset
The second miraculous remedy is done on Saturday evening i.e. during Pradosh Kaal. In Hindu scriptures, the Peepal tree is considered a god tree and on Saturday, Lord Vishnu and Shani Dev actually reside in the Peepal tree. On the last Saturday of Sawan, go near an old and healthy Peepal tree in the evening. Fill pure mustard oil in an earthen lamp and add two whole cloves and some black sesame seeds in it. Light this four-sided lamp near the root of Peepal tree. After lighting the lamp, circumambulate the Peepal tree seven times clockwise and with each circumambulation, recite ‘Om Shan Shanaishcharaya Namah’ or Shani Chalisa in your mind. After completing the parikrama, fold both hands and seek forgiveness from Shanidev and ancestors for the crimes committed knowingly or unknowingly. This remedy is considered infallible in removing even the biggest Pitra Dosh and Shani Dosh from the horoscope.
3. ‘Chhaya Daan’ in a bronze bowl and distribution of black food and clothing to the needy.
The third most powerful remedy is ‘Chhaya Daan’, which is considered best to destroy the ill effects of Shani. On the last Saturday of Sawan, take pure mustard oil in a bronze, iron or clay bowl. Drop a coin in that oil and see your face clearly in it (admire your reflection). After seeing the face, dedicate that oil as ‘Chhaya Daan’ in any Shani temple or donate it to a dacoit asking for oil. Apart from this, on this day, feed food to any poor, helpless or disabled person and donate black urad dal, black umbrella, leather shoes, slippers or black blanket as per your capacity. Shani Dev is the factor of work and service, hence when you help the deprived section of the society, Shani Dev becomes extremely happy and paves the way to convert the Duryoga in your horoscope into Rajyoga.
Which zodiac signs are under the influence of Sade Sati and Dhaiya at this time?
According to astrological calculations, currently various phases of Saturn’s Sade Sati are going on for the people of Aquarius, Capricorn and Pisces, while the people of Cancer and Scorpio zodiac signs are in the influence zone of Saturn’s Dhaiya. People of these five zodiac signs should be especially alert and perform worship and charity on this last Saturday of Saavan. Apart from this, those people in whose horoscope Saturn is situated in the lowest sign (Aries) or is in conjunction with Sun, Mars and Rahu, will also get mental peace, promotion in the workplace and health benefits by taking this remedy.
Keep these important rules and precautions in mind during worship and donation.
While worshiping Shanidev, it is mandatory to follow some special rules. While worshiping on Saturday, one should never look directly into the eyes of the idol of Shani Dev; Always avoid his gaze and pray by looking at his feet. Completely give up Tamasic food, non-vegetarian food and alcohol for this entire day. Do not insult any elderly, woman, sweeper, laborer or helpless person nor behave fraudulently with anyone. Avoid buying iron, mustard oil, leather or salt and bringing it home on Saturday, rather take a pledge to donate these items.
