Remedies for Rahu

Hello everyone.

Of all the planets that we have in our charts, one very misunderstood and feared planet is Rahu. By defintion, Rahu is called the North Node in Western Astrology and in Indian Astrology, Rahu is the shadow of Saturn.

Accordingly, if we look at Rahu, it is a planet of illusion and imagination. It is associated with higher consciousness. A powerfully placed Rahu will make you a scientist or great thinker will a massive intelligence. Good examples are people such as Nikola Tesla / Thomas Edison, CV Raman, Elon Musk etc. Rahu also gives psychic ability and most great astrologers have a well placed Rahu. A majority of lottery winners or reality show winners also have a well placed Rahu.

Now, coming to the downside of Rahu. A badly placed Rahu gives chances of cheating / life threatening disease / problems from lower strata of society / dog bites etc.

The exact result depends on the placement of Rahu in your chart.

Now, coming to the main agenda of this post, let’s talk about a few powerful remedies for Rahu:-

  1. Give jowar grains to pigeons every Wednesday
  2. Chant “Om Ram Rahve Namah” every Wednesday or a total of 19000 times (whichever can be done sooner). You can either do this yourself or with the help of priests. I offer the service of Mantra chanting and can do it on your behalf without even personally meeting you.
  3. Give service in orphanages / old age homes / hospitals / etc.
  4. Offer food / clothes / blankets etc to poor and homeless people
  5. Wearing a gemstone is also highly beneficial for problems associated with Rahu. For Rahu the best option is to wear a Hessonite (Gomed in Hindi) in a gold or panch dhatu (5 metal) ring in your right hand middle finger after chanting “Om Ram Rahve Namah” 108 times. Onyx is a cheaper alternative of Hessonite. Alternately, you can also wear it as a Pendant. If gold or panch dhatu are not affordable, then you can also go for a silver ring or pendant.
    I suggest the following options if you need to buy:-

    1. An Onyx gemstone in a Panch Dhatu ring costing around Rs 2000 (approx 29 USD)
    2. A Hessonite gemstone in a Panch Dhatu pendant costing around Rs 2800 (approx 38 USD). International users can get one here.
    3. A Hessonite gemstone of higher quality in a silver ring costing around Rs 7200 (approx 98 USD)
  6. You can also use a Yantra for Rahu. This is an energized Rahu Yantra that you can keep with you in your purse or wallet and it will help reduce malefic effects of Rahu and increase positive effects. It costs around Rs 800. International users can get one here.

Remedies for Saturn

Hello Everyone.

As I commonly get questions about dealing with bad effects of Saturn (also known as Shani), I thought of penning my thoughts in a common location instead of typing it out again and again.

Firstly, let me clarify that Saturn is a giver of justice. When we move through a period of Saturn, we learn a lot of hard lessons and come out strong. Unfortunately, the period of hard lessons can be quite difficult and easily demoralize most people. On the other hand, a positive Saturn is known to give immense amounts of beauty, wealth and prestige as well.

That is why the remedies for Saturn come into the picture. So, let’s get started!

There are various ways to solve a problem and in the same way, we have different solutions to deal with the effects of a planet also.

The simplest approach most astrologers today will suggest is wearing a ring with Blue Sapphire in gold / panch dhatu (5 metals) / silver in your right hand middle finger. Personally, I can tell you that this is a good approach but having some caveats:-

A) For good results, you will need a gemstone of sufficient quality (the more you spend the better). Some people assume that high carats = high quality. Unfortunately, this is far from the truth. An A-grade gemstone of 2 carats is much more powerful than a M-grade gemstone of 20 carats. So, go for the highest possible quality within your budget.

B) The gemstone needs to be properly energized with prescribed rituals for it to work at the right level of vibrations. An unergized gemstone will not give desired results. I will describe the exact towards the end of this post.

Ideally, you will need to get a gemstone within your budget and energize it. Later, as your capacity to purchase gems improves, you can go for higher quality gems. A good example of this is veteran actor Mr Amitabh Bachchan who actually wears 3 Blue Sapphires at the same time. Together, they have given him excellent results.

The following are some choices for Blue Sapphire based on budget:-

  1. Economy range :- Economy option costing around Rs 500 (around 7 USD)
  2. Budget range :- Budget option costing around Rs 3000 (around 42 USD). International users can get it here.
  3. Mid range:- Mid range option costing around Rs 5000 (around 70 USD)
  4. Good quality:- Mid-high range costing around Rs 21700 (around 300 USD). International users can get a similar one here.
  5. Deluxe quality:- Deluxe quality gemstone costing around Rs 129000 (around 1500 USD)
  6. Super Deluxe quality:- Super deluxe quality gemstone costing around Rs 229000 (around 2500 USD)

So, why would someone not go for the 1st one and even bother about the more expensive (higher quality) stones? The answer is in the result. For example, Mr Amitabh Bachchan wears 3 Blue Sapphires because he was advised that getting a single Blue Sapphire with that much power was quite difficult. Each of his 3 Blue Sapphires has an estimated cost of Rs 500000 (almost 8000 USD).

So, let’s assume that you managed to identify a gemstone and buy it. Now we have the most important part – How do we energize it?

You will need to go with the following steps:-

  1. On a Saturday morning, wash the gemstone with milk and then with water and place it in your place of worship within the home. If your home does not have a place of worship, you can say a pray to whoever you worship and request for their blessing into the stone
  2. It is highly recommended to chant “Om Sham Shanescharaye Namah” at least 108 times
  3. Wear the gemstone in a small, new and clean cloth in a string around your neck.
  4. Maintain a diary for the next 5 days and note down all events (good or bad) that happen. After the 4-5 day period, read your diary and see how many good things happened vs number of bad things. This step is extremely important because, at times, Blue Sapphires are known to contain some bad luck.
    Therefore, most vendors will allow you to return the gemstone if you’re not satisfied.
  5. If only good things majorly happened, visit the jeweller and have them put the gemstone into a ring or pendant (as I mentioned above)

Your gemstone is now ready for full time use.

Aside from gemstones, the following are a few more remedies for you to try:-

  1. Chant “Om Sham Shanescharaye Namah” at least 18000 times either yourself or with help of priests. I offer this service also.
  2. Feed dogs on every Saturday
  3. Give blankets to poor and homeless people during winters
  4. Give food to poor and homeless people on Saturday
  5. Donate black colored items on every Saturday
  6. Chant Hanuman Chalisa as much as possible
  7. Worship Lord Ram. Since Saturn is his devotee, he will not do harm to his fellow devotees.
  8. Get a Shani Yantra and keep it either in your purse or hang it in a frame on a wall in your home. You can also keep it at home in your place of worship.
    Personally, I suggest this Yantra that costs around Rs 230 (around 3.2 USD). International users can get it here.

Lastly, please remember that it is not necessary that Saturn is the reason for your problems. The best way to know is through a thorough analysis of your chart.
