As all planets have their own character and set of elements, Saturn is the flag bearer of karma and justice. It is known for rendering justice, also known as karma in Indian astrological parlance. Saturn has the capability of garnering abundant success to the ones sticking to a noble path. Saturn also has the power to ruin someone’s life entirely. So, your conduct matters when pertaining to the Sade Sati.
Saturn is much like a stern educator. It will be harsh towards you and will make you learn the lesson a harsh way. During Sade Sati, it is important to keep your conduct proper and in line with what Saturn expects out of you. If you do stick to Saturn’s code of conduct, it will reward you.
The beauty of Indian Vedic Astrology is that there is nothing that can be mended. A wrongly placed planet, a bad sade sati, there is a remedy for everything. Below are some expert remedies for the Sade Sati that are advised by leading astrological experts:
1. Recitation of ‘Sunderkaand Paath’ on the evenings of Tuesdays and Saturdays
2. Donation of foods and medicines to blind, specially abled and old aged people on Saturdays.
3. Recitation of the Shani Mantra, that is also known as the Beej Mantra
ॐ प्रां प्रीं प्रौं सः शनैश्चराय नमः
“Om Praam Preem Praum Saha Shaneshchraya Namaha”
ॐ त्र्यम्बकं यजामहे
सुगन्धिं पुष्टिवर्धनम् ।
उर्वारुकमिव बन्धनान्
मृत्योर्मुक्षीय मामृतात् ॥
Urvaarukamiva Bandhanaan Mrityormuksheeya Maamritaat.”
