In Vedic astrology, Navgraha Puja is one of the most powerful spiritual remedies to balance the nine celestial influencers: Surya (Sun), Chandra (Moon), Mangal (Mars), Budh (Mercury), Guru (Jupiter), Shukra (Venus), Shani (Saturn), Rahu, and Ketu.
These nine planets govern every aspect of your life—health, career, finances, relationships, and even spirituality. When their placement in your Kundli (horoscope) becomes imbalanced, it can result in serious obstacles. Navgraha Puja is performed to neutralize negative planetary effects and enhance positive vibrations in life.
Let’s explore when this puja should be performed and why it’s astrologically important.
🌌 What is Navgraha Puja?
Navgraha Puja is a powerful Vedic ritual that involves invoking the blessings of all nine planets simultaneously. It is a holistic planetary balancing act that corrects doshas (flaws), pacifies malefic influences, and strengthens beneficial ones.
It includes:
-
Kalash Sthapana
-
Mantra Jaap of 108 or 1008 per graha
-
Homa or Havan
-
Purna Ahuti
-
Aarti and Sankalp with devotee details

📅 When to Perform Navgraha Puja?
✅ 1. During Sade Sati or Dhaiya (Shani Period)
Navgraha Puja can pacify Shani and reduce the karmic burdens of this intense phase.
✅ 2. At the Start of a New Dasha or Antardasha
When a planet’s major or sub-period begins (like Shani Mahadasha), performing Navgraha Puja ensures a smoother transition.
✅ 3. Before Major Life Events
Marriage, childbirth, job switch, business launch—doing this puja removes obstacles and attracts cosmic blessings.
✅ 4. On Your Birthday or Janma Nakshatra Day
This enhances your planetary strength and protects you for the year ahead.
✅ 5. During Eclipses or Amavasya
These are highly sensitive astrological windows. Performing Navgraha Puja helps in detoxing karmic baggage.
✅ 6. When Facing Repeated Failures or Misfortunes
If you’re constantly struggling despite efforts, planetary imbalance is often the reason.
