Navgraha Puja (Nine Planet Puja)

Navgraha Puja is a comprehensive Vedic ritual performed to pacify and balance the influence of all nine planets (Navgraha) — Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu. According to Vedic astrology, these planets govern every aspect of human life including health, career, marriage, finances, emotions, education, and spiritual growth.

When one or more planets are afflicted, weak, or malefic in the birth chart, it can result in various doshas, delays, obstacles, mental stress, health problems, and instability in life. Navgraha Puja harmonizes planetary energies through mantra chanting, havan, and sacred offerings, ensuring overall balance and positivity.

This puja is especially beneficial during unfavorable Mahadasha, Antardasha, Sade Sati, Grahan Dosh, Kaal Sarp Dosh, or before important life events.
