Saturn's Sadesati and Dhaiyya on these zodiac signs:
In Vedic astrology, the movement of Saturn has special importance. Saturn is the slowest moving planet among all the planets in the universe. Saturn stays in one zodiac sign for about two and a half years and then enters another zodiac sign. Due to the influence of Saturn, Sadhesati, Dhaiyya and Mahadasha have a special effect on a person's life.
It is said that people who have Saturn in an inauspicious house in their horoscope have to face many problems and obstacles. In the year 2024, Saturn is in Aquarius. In such a situation, in the year 2024, Saturn's Sadhesati is going on Aquarius, Capricorn and Pisces. Apart from this, Saturn has an influence on Cancer and Scorpio. On Shani Jayanti, Saturn will be located in its original triangle sign Aquarius.
Do these measures on Shani Jayanti:
To please Shani Dev on Shani Jayanti, chant his divine mantra 'Om Pram Preem Praun Sa: Shanaishcharaya Namah', by chanting this mantra you will get the blessings of Shani Dev.
To please Shani Dev and get rid of Pitra Dosh on Shani Ammas, one should donate the favorite things of one's ancestors. On Jeth Ammas Tithi, prepare food in the name of ancestors and feed it to cows, crows and dogs.
On the day of Shani Amas, offering water mixed with raw milk in the root of the barrel and lighting a lamp of sesame or mustard oil also provides relief from many problems. Worshiping and circling the Peepal tree during Shani's Sadesati or Dhaiya provides relief from the sufferings of Shani.
Shani Maharaj is always pleased with those who worship Hanumanji, hence to get the blessings of Shanidev, along with the worship of Shani Maharaj, Hanumanji should also be worshiped.
To pacify Shani Dosh, along with worshiping Shanidev on the day of Jyeshtha Amas, one should chant the mantra 'Om Namah Sheeya' and anoint Lord Shiva with water mixed with black sesame seeds.
On the day of Jeth Amasa, one should observe a fast on Saturday to please Lord Shani and help the poor. By following these measures, the problems of life start going away.
What should not be done on Shani Jayanti?
On the day of Shani Amsa, no item made of iron should be brought into the house. Buying iron items on this day makes Shani Dev angry and if you do so, your physical and financial problems may increase.
Do not buy mustard oil, wood, shoes, slippers and black gram on this day, otherwise you may have to face the evil eye of Saturn.
If you go to Shanidev temple on this day for darshan of Shanidev, then keep in mind that even by mistake, do not look into his eyes, there should not be eye contact.
