Mercury empowerment Anushthan

In astrology, the planet Mercury (Budh) is considered the primary factor for intelligence, communication, business, reasoning ability, and mathematics. It is associated with the Earth element among the five elements, and its color is green. The influence of Mercury deeply affects a person’s mental balance, eloquence, business acumen, and reasoning skills. A well-placed and strong Mercury in the horoscope grants sharp intellect, success in business, and effective communication abilities. Conversely, a weak or afflicted Mercury causes confusion, mental stress, failure in business, and reduced communication skills. The malefic effects of Mercury can lead to memory loss, headaches, skin disorders, seizures, and physical ailments related to imbalance of phlegm and bile (Kapha-Pitta).

If Mercury (Budh) is weak in the horoscope, it becomes extremely important to strengthen it. The most effective way to empower Mercury is through the Mercury empowerment Anushthan,' a powerful ritual that reduces Mercury’s malefic effects and enhances its positive energy.

Procedure of Mercury empowerment Anushthan

In the Mercury empowerment Anushthan, Vedic mantras dedicated to the planet Mercury are chanted. During this ritual, the Mercury mantra is repeated 36,000 times, followed by chanting one-tenth of that count and then performing a prescribed Havan (fire ritual) according to Vedic rites.

However, it is important to note that the full benefits of this ritual are realized only when it is conducted strictly according to the scriptural guidelines. The chanting and Havan should be performed by experienced and skilled priests to ensure maximum effectiveness of the ceremony.
