The Significance of Shani Peryarchi / Saturn Transits
Saturn Transits from Aquarius to Pisces on March 29th, 2025 according to the Thiruganitha/Drik Panchangam.
On 29th March at 9:30 AM our Temple will perform at Shanischara Kalasha puja followed by Mahabhishekam and Swarna (Gold) Kavacha Dharanam, Archana and Aarthi.
Saturn (Shaneeswara, Saneschara, Shani & Sani) is the most powerful planet affecting the life of every living thing and even the Gods and is intensely manifest at Parashakthi Temple. He is called Mandha (slow one) also called Sanischara (one who moves slowly) also called Saneeswara (The god who is Saturn). He is the only planet who has the suffix ISHWARA attached to his name. Saneeswara is reputed to be both, a giver and a destroyer. A person who prays to Saneeswara regularly will be blessed with not only riddance from the problems and worries faced, but a life that one desires.
Lord Surya was married to Sanjana (sometimes called Saranya), the daughter of Vishwakarma (the divine architect). Sanjana was not able to tolerate the heat and brightness of Lord Surya. She therefore leaves her shadow Chaya in her place and goes away to do penance. Shani was born to Lord Surya, and Chaya, the goddess of shadows.
Lord Shaneeswara is described as the lord of justice. His task is to give us the fruits of our karma (past deeds), both good and the bad. As such he is a neutral planet and is impartial (not even the gods escape from his justice). What we experience during each of his transits are the results of our own past karma. His impartial and unwavering nature makes it very difficult to appease him, as justice is above all for him.
He rules the planet Saturn and the weekday Saturday and is one of the nine primary celestial bodies (Navgrahas) of the Universe. Shani Amavasya or Shanishchara Jayanti is dedicated to the Birthday of Lord Shani. It is observed on Vaishak Vadya Chaturdasi Amavasya. Shanishchara Jayanti or Shani Amavasya is considered a divine day to worship Lord Shani. It is considered very auspicious to worship Lord Shiva (Lord Sani is an ardent devotee of Lord Siva and also Lord Siva is considered to be the guru of Lord Sani), Lord Hanuman and Lord Ganesha along with Lord Shani on this auspicious day. It is said that when Lord Hanuman reached Lanka in search of Lord Sri Ram’s wife Sita, he released the Navagraha who were imprisoned by the lord of Lanka, Ravan. In return Lord Sani promises Lord Hanuman that he will not be malefic towards the devotees of Lord Hanuman.
Lord Shani teaches us the importance of discipline to succeed in life. Having consistency is something that is highly beneficial to keep negative influence in check.
