Origin & Story

Navagraha Suktam (Vedic texts) and Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra · Vedic Rishis and Sage Parashara · Ancient Vedic period

The Navagraha mantras originate from the Vedic astronomical tradition where sages observed that nine celestial bodies profoundly influence human life. Sage Parashara systematized this knowledge in the Brihat Parashara Hora Shastra, the foundational text of Vedic astrology. Temples dedicated to the Navagraha exist throughout South India, where devotees circumambulate the nine planetary deities to seek their blessings.

✦ As told in scripture

In the Ramayana, when Lord Ram was about to be crowned king, the planets aligned unfavorably due to Saturn's influence. This led to Ram's exile. Later, when Hanuman confronted Shani (Saturn) and freed him from Ravana's prison, Shani promised that he would be gentle with anyone who worships Hanuman. This is why Hanuman worship is considered a remedy for Saturn-related difficulties in Vedic astrology.
