Navagraha Puja and Homam
There are nine planets in our solar system, and Navagraha Puja and Homam is a powerful ritual dedicated to pleasing them.
Are you dealing with increasing financial losses or facing difficulties finding a better job or increased income source? If yes, then Navgraha Puja can help you with the benefits.
The word Navagraha, according to Indian Vedic astrology, has derived from two words (Nava, which means “Nine,” and Grah, which means “Planets”) which denote the nine celestial bodies that rule the horoscope of every person. Our karma, emotions, desires, and outcomes are shaped by these “grahas,” such as the Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus & Saturn.
[contact-form-7 id="14022" title="Contact form 1"]As per Hindu mythology, the significance is attached to the position of nine planets in the twelve constellations of the zodiac. Except for Rahu and Ketu, known as the shadows, each Navagrah rules one day of the week.
