Saturn Appeasement Chant

The planet Saturn is truly a planet of justice, which revolves slowly around all zodiac signs. In the various beneficial Anushthan (Ritual) traditions of Sanatan Dharma, chanting and donation are described as the best remedies to please Lord Saturn and mitigate his malefic effects. It is often observed that people become anxious upon hearing the name of Saturn, as Saturn is considered the dispenser of justice. The color of Saturn is black, with coarse hair and a stubborn and fierce nature. It symbolizes despair and disappointment. Its inauspicious position in the horoscope is troubling throughout life, and during such a phase, its Mahadasha and Sade Sati cause intense suffering and despair. Since Saturn moves very slowly, its influence causes delays in every task, and no work seems to succeed. Its presence fills the native’s life with disappointment.

The only remedy for the troubles caused by Saturn is to please it. There are only two ways to please Saturn: one is the Shanti Jap (peaceful chanting) and the other is donation. Saturn’s donation is different from other forms of donation. For more information about Saturn donation, contact Sanatan Jyoti.

Though there are many mantras for Shani Shanti, their complete effect is obtained only when the Vedic mantra is chanted with full Vedic procedure. Therefore, this Anushthan should only be performed by expert Acharyas. Sanatan Jyoti always ensures that chanting is done by qualified and skilled Acharyas according to Vedic mantras so that the native receives the maximum benefit from the Jap.

Saturn Appeasement Chant Worship Process

For the pacification of Saturn (Shani), chanting 92,000 mantras according to the Vedic method is considered highly effective. This chanting can be performed daily in a fixed number—such as 1 mala or 3 malas, as per one’s convenience—using a Rudraksha mala. Every day, after bathing in the morning, wear clean black or blue clothes, face west, and offer a lamp, incense, sesame seeds, flowers, and naivedya in front of the idol or image of Lord Shani. Then, take a vow and chant the Vedic mantra with devotion. After the complete chanting is finished, perform the Dashansh Jap and Havan.

This Anushthan can also be performed by the practitioner himself, but for greater effectiveness and purity, it is more fruitful to do it under the guidance of a qualified Acharya. Special worship, fasting, and donations at a Shani temple on Saturdays help in attaining the fruits of the practice more quickly.
