Shani Dev Mantra – Om Sham Shanicharaya Namah is one of the Navagraha (the 9 primary celestial beings in Hindu astrology) of Jyotisa.
He is the God of justice in Hinduism. He is the Lord who gives the results of negative and positive karmas.
Shani Dev is the most feared of all deities because of his power to turn a king into a pauper within a moment. He is the Lord of Saturday and is embodied in the planet Saturn.
The planet Saturn was installed as a planet that will govern karma and dharma (spiritual teachings) in a horoscope. He will enter one`s horoscope as the karmic Guru and will ensure one learns the life lessons and pass the tests.
Shani Dev is also known as Kruradris or Kruralochana (the cruel-eyed), Saura (son of sun-god), Mandu (dull and slow), Asta (dark), Saptarchi (seven-eyed) and Pangu (disabled).
He is considered to be the most powerful in the 7th house. Saturn rules over the 2 sidereal signs of Aquarius and Capricorn. In addition, He exalts in Libra and falls in the sign of Aries. The planet Saturn is a particularly beneficial planet for Libra and Taurus ascendants.
In 2013, a 20-foot-tall statue of Lord Shani was established at Yerdanur, which is a small village located about four kilometers from the Mumbai National Highway. The statues was carved from a monolith and weighs about 9 tonnes.
