    Shani Dev Vrat — Saturday Rituals, Do’s And Don’ts For Blessings

    5 days ago

    Observant Hindus dedicate each day of the week to a specific deity, and Saturday belongs to Lord Shani, revered as the arbiter of karma and justice. Devotees believe that a disciplined Shanivar Vrat and precise worship can earn Shani’s grace, while small missteps may block the desired results.

    How To Prepare For The Saturday Fast

    • Begin by mentally invoking Lord Shani the day before the fast and refrain from tamasic (heavy or non‑vegetarian) food.
    • Rise in the Brahma Muhurat, bathe, wear clean clothes, and formally resolve to observe the fast before Shani’s image.
    • Offer water to a Peepal tree and circle it seven times.
    • Tie a protective thread to the tree during the circumambulation.

    Rituals To Win Lord Shani’s Favour

    • Worship an iron idol of Shani with devotion in mind, word, and deed, and read or listen to his sacred narrative.
    • In the evening, visit a temple, perform Shani Aarti, and pour mustard oil as an offering.
    • Present black sesame seeds, mustard oil, and a black cloth to the deity; donating a blanket is also considered auspicious.
    • Chant Shani mantras and stotras to lessen the intensity of his planetary period (Mahadasha).
    • Break the fast only the next day after concluding prayers to Lord Shani; without this formal closure, the fast is deemed incomplete.
