Significance of Shani Jayanti
Lord Shani is the planet Saturn’s and Saturday’s deity. According to celestial movements, Saturn is the planet that moves the slowest. As a result, the position of this planet in an individual’s birth chart has significant astrological significance. Saturn is commonly thought of as a planet that has a negative impact on people’s life, and as a result, people are afraid of it.
But the truth is that this sluggish planet is Karma’s home. It grants victory only to those who have endured penance, adversity, and struggle, and who have made hard, disciplined, and sincere efforts in their lives. The deeds done in the past and present lives determine whether an individual will be blessed or prone to bad fate.
Lord Shani is reasonable and fair, and the natives receive the outcome of their own Karma. Shani is known by several names, including Sauri, Manda, Neel, Yama, Kapilaksha, and Chhata Sunu. He is also known as the Lord of the West.
It is thought that everyone goes through a Shani Sade Sati phase at least once in their lives, during which time they face the most difficult challenges of their lives. If your deeds are excellent, however, Lord Shani will offer his blessings on you during this time, assisting you in achieving achievement and releasing you from such suffering and difficulty.
As a result, Hindus worship Lord Shani and give prayers to him in order to appease him and lessen his negative consequences. People who are dealing with Sade Sati should worship to the deity on a daily basis. Devotees are showered with good fortune by fasting on Shani Jayanti and visiting Lord Shani’s shrines.
