Special Navagraha Homa

The influence of Navagrahas on human life has been proved by belief and science. During the transit of planets when they stay at favourable positions they give fortunes and benefits and at unfavourable positions, they give mysteries and misfortunes. If the harmful planet and the period of its evil effect are known, the suitable remedy has to be done. For every planet, 15 types of remedies are prescribed. Homa worship and charity are important among them. All types of evolutions of all the moving and unmoving things control the results of our actions in previous births which cause different stages in the progress of human life. Navagrahas control and give these results to us.

Zodiacal change in planetary position after sunrise occurs only once in 4 years. The first day of the month of Medam is also the holy day in which sun enters Medam, which is its house of Zodiac on the ascendant. Generally, the first day of Medam is being celebrated as Vishu. In every 4 years, Vishu is celebrated on the second day of Medam and on the first day of Medam special Navagraha Homa is also performed. Since this homa is very special, devotees from various parts of the country reach the temple for witnessing the thanthrik rituals.
