Mumbai: The date of Shani Jayanti this year coincides with Vat-Savitri Vrat, which falls on Thursday, June 6th. Each year, Shani Dev’s birthday is celebrated on the new moon day (Amavasya) in the month of Jyeshtha according to the Hindu Panchang. The worship of Shani Dev on this day is considered highly beneficial, especially for those facing issues related to Shani Dosha, Shani Mahadasha, Sade Sati, or Dhaiya. On this auspicious occasion, those with a weak position of Shani in their kundali (horoscope) should particularly worship Shani Maharaj, the deity of justice.
Benefits of observing Shani Jayanti
It is believed that performing specific rituals on Shani Jayanti can alleviate the adverse effects caused by Shani. On this day, it is important to follow some key rituals and practices:
Shani Jayanti upay
Offer Oil to Shani Dev
On Shani Jayanti, take mustard oil in a bronze or iron bowl and see your reflection in it. After that, you can donate the bowl along with the oil to someone in need or place it in a Shani temple. It is believed that this act will reduce personal problems. Performing “Chhaya Daan” (shadow donation) or offering oil to Shani Dev is considered extremely beneficial.
Recite Shani Stotra
After bathing in the morning, worship Shani Dev at a Shani temple. You can recite the Shani Stotra or Shani Kavach. Shani-related issues can be mitigated by chanting either of these texts.
Donate to the Poor and Needy
Offer mustard oil, black sesame seeds, and black urad dal to Shani Dev at the Shani temple. On this day, help the poor and needy to the best of your ability. You can dispel Shani-related doshas by donating money, black clothes, oil, food, sesame seeds, and urad dal.
Worship Trees Associated with Shani
Peepal and Shami trees are associated with Shani astrologically. During Shani Jayanti and every Saturday, offering water and lighting a lamp at the roots of these trees can help resolve various problems. By worshipping and circumambulating the Peepal tree, Sade Sati or Dhaiya distress can be alleviated. You can also attract Shani’s blessings by planting a Peepal tree on this day.
Worship Lord Shiva and Hanuman
Shani Dev is always pleased with devotees who worship Hanuman. It is recommended that Hanuman be worshipped alongside Shani Dev in order to please Shani Dev. Furthermore, Lord Shiva is Shani Dev’s presiding deity. Perform a ritual bath of black sesame seeds in water on this day to honour Shani Dev and Shiva. To gain Shani Dev’s favour, recite the Mahamrityunjaya Mantra and read the Sundara Kanda every day.
Observing these rituals on Shani Jayanti not only relieves Shani’s adverse effects but also brings prosperity and peace.
