சனிக்கிழமை பரிகாரம்

Purpose

Saturday practices appease Lord Shani (Saturn), reducing the malefic effects of Sade Sati, Shani Dhaiya, and Saturn-related problems like delays, obstacles, and chronic issues.

மேலோட்டம்

Shani (Saturn) is considered the lord of karma and justice. His influence can bring delays, obstacles, and suffering - but also teaches valuable life lessons and builds character.

**Shani Transit (Sade Sati):** When Saturn transits through the 12th, 1st, and 2nd houses from Moon sign (7.5 years), it brings challenges. Regular Saturday remedies help mitigate effects.

**Key Practices:**
- Donate black items (clothes, sesame, urad dal)
- Light sesame oil lamp under peepal tree
- Feed crows (considered Shani's vehicle)
- Visit Shani temple
- Chant Shani mantras
