In Vedic astrology, the planets (Navgrahas) play a major role in shaping a person’s destiny. Each planet governs specific areas of life, and their placement in the birth chart can bring both positive and negative effects. When certain planets become malefic (known as doshas), they cause obstacles, delays, health problems, financial losses, and relationship troubles. To calm the negative energy and invite peace, astrologers recommend powerful Navgraha Mantras.
These mantras are ancient Sanskrit chants that invoke the energy of the nine planets and help in pacifying their malefic effects. Reciting them regularly brings planetary balance, mental peace, and spiritual harmony.
What Are Planetary Mantras?
Planetary mantras are specific Vedic chants dedicated to each planet (graha). These mantras align the vibrational frequency of the planet with your body and mind, helping to remove doshas (planetary afflictions) and bring peace and stability in life. These mantras are especially useful during the Mahadasha, Antardasha, or Sade Sati periods when a particular planet is giving trouble.
