\nAs the seven planets correspond to the days of the week,\n\nJupiter  \tThursday\nSun  \t        Sunday\nMoon  \t        Monday\nMars  \t        Tuesday\nMercury  \tWednesday \nVenus  \t        Friday\nSaturn  \tSaturday\n\nthe day of week which corresponds to the afflicted planet is given prime importance and fasting and other remedial measures are prescribed for that day. This is the rationale of Vara Puja.\n\nSun's day is Sunday and Moon's day is Monday. ( From the Latin Dies Luna and the Sanskrit Soma Var . Dies Sol and Ravi Var) . Mars is known as Tiv in Norse Mythology and hence Tiv's day became Tuesday ( From the Sanskrit Mangal Var and the Latin Dies Marti ). Woten is Mercury and Woten's day became Wednesday. ( From the Latin Dies Mercuri and the Sanskrit, Budha Var ).\n\nThor is Jupiter in Norse Mythology and hence Thor's day became Thursday ( Sankrit Brihaspati Var and the Latin Iovis Dies ) . Freya is Venus and Freya's day became Friday ( Latin Dies Freya and Sanskrit Shukra Var ). Saturn's day is Saturday. ( Dies Saturni and Shani Var ).\n\nThe day of week which corresponds to the afflicted planet is given prime importance and fasting and other remedial measures are prescribed for that day. This is the rationale of Vara Puja.\n\nVareshan Kalpayithvadvou\nJyothis Chakra Prathishtithan\nSwaswa Vare Thu Theshaam Thu\nSwa Swa Pooja Phala prada\n\n\nVARA PUJA for the Nine Revolving Heavens\n\nThe Law of Correspondences\n\nEach planet has a corresponding Day, a corresponding Gemstone, a corresponding Deity, a corresponding Yantra, a corresponding Mantra & a corresponding Holy Book.\n\nVara Puja is said to be the most effective remedy in Vedic Astrology. On the day of the problem causing planet that planet is to be propitiated. If Jupiter is the problem causer, Thursday is the day where the Deity of Jupiter ( Lord Vishnu ), the Yantra of Jupiter ( Brihaspathi  Yantra ), the mantra of Jupiter ( Om Brihaspatayai Namah), the Holy Book of Jupiter ( Geetha) & the gemstone of Jupiter ( Yellow Sapphire ) should be propitiated. Similarly for all other planets.\n\nEvery Deity has a mantra. For instance Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra has been found to be very effective while dealing with afflictions caused by Saturn. The Planet and the Deity are both Thamasic by nature.\nSun\u00a0\nSunday\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\nRuby\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\nSuryaya Namah\u00a0\nSoorya\nAditya Hridayam\nLord Siva\nMoon\u00a0\nMonday\nPearl\u00a0\nSoma\nDevi Mahatmyam\u00a0\nDurga\nJupiter\u00a0\nThursday\u00a0\nYellowSapphire\nBrihaspataye Namah\nBrihaspati\nGeetha\u00a0\nVishnu\nMars\u00a0\nTuesday\nCoral\u00a0\nAngarakaya Namah\nKuja\u00a0\nDevi Mahatmyam\nMuruga\u00a0\nVenus \u00a0\nFriday\u00a0\nDiamond\u00a0\nShukraya Namah\u00a0\nShukra\u00a0\nSoundaryalahari\u00a0\nLakshmi\nSaturn\nSaturday\nBlue Sapphire\u00a0\nSanischarayaNamah\nShaneeswara\nDevi Mahatmyam\u00a0\nAyyappa\nMercury\u00a0\nWednesday\nEmerald\u00a0\nBudhaya Namah\u00a0\nBudha\u00a0\nGeetha\u00a0\nVishnu\nRahu\nSaturday\nHessonite\nRahave Namah\u00a0\nRahu Yantra\u00a0\nDevi Mahatmyam\u00a0\nAyyappa\nKetu\nTuesday\u00a0\nCat's Eye\u00a0\nKetave Namah\u00a0\nKetu Yantra\nDevi Mahatmyam\u00a0\nDurga\n\nSun \tSunday   \tRuby         \tSuryaya Namah \tSoorya\tAditya Hridayam\tLord Siva\nMoon \tMonday\tPearl \tSomaya Namah \tSoma\tDevi Mahatmyam \tDurga\nJupiter \tThursday \tYellowSapphire\tBrihaspataye Namah\tBrihaspati\tGeetha \tVishnu\nMars \tTuesday\tCoral \tAngarakaya Namah\tKuja \tDevi Mahatmyam\tMuruga \nVenus  \tFriday \tDiamond \tShukraya Namah \tShukra \tSoundaryalahari \tLakshmi\nSaturn\tSaturday\tBlue Sapphire \tSanischarayaNamah\tShaneeswara\tDevi Mahatmyam \tAyyappa\nMercury \tWednesday\tEmerald \tBudhaya Namah \tBudha \tGeetha \tVishnu\nRahu\tSaturday\tHessonite\tRahave Namah \tRahu Yantra \tDevi Mahatmyam \tAyyappa\nKetu\tTuesday \tCat's Eye \tKetave Namah \tKetu Yantra\tDevi Mahatmyam \tDurgaPlanet       Day                 Gem                          Mantra                              Yantra                    Book                               Deity\nSun  \tSunday    \tRuby          \tSuryaya Namah  \tSoorya \tAditya Hridayam \tLord Siva\nMoon  \tMonday \tPearl  \tSomaya Namah  \tSoma \tDevi Mahatmyam  \tDurga\nJupiter  \tThursday  \tYellowSapphire \tBrihaspataye Namah \tBrihaspati \tGeetha  \tVishnu\nMars  \tTuesday \tCoral  \tAngarakaya Namah \tKuja  \tDevi Mahatmyam \tMuruga \nVenus   \tFriday  \tDiamond  \tShukraya Namah  \tShukra  \tSoundaryalahari  \tLakshmi\nSaturn \tSaturday \tBlue Sapphire  \tSanischarayaNamah \tShaneeswara \tDevi Mahatmyam  \tAyyappa\nMercury  \tWednesday \tEmerald  \tBudhaya Namah  \tBudha  \tGeetha  \tVishnu\nRahu \tSaturday \tHessonite \tRahave Namah  \tRahu Yantra  \tDevi Mahatmyam  \tAyyappa\nKetu \tTuesday  \tCat's Eye  \tKetave Namah  \tKetu Yantra \tDevi Mahatmyam  \tDurga\n\n \n\nMonday Vara Puja\n\nNormally women are the people who observe this Vara Puja. Also those who suffer from a malefic Moon Dasa.\n\nIn order to get a good spouse, longevity of marriage, longevity of husband, children , prosperity for family- all these are the objectives of Monday Vara Puja. \n\nDurga is the presiding Deity of the Moon, Durga Chandrasya Devatha. As the Symbol of the Self is the Sun, so the Symbol of the Mind is Moon, Mano Matharo Sheetha Rashmi. Durga means the Surmounter of difficulties, the difficulties of Samsar, the ocean of worldliness.\n\nThe Days of the Week\nDerive their names\nFrom the Seven Revolving Heavens !\nIt is said that Divine Love\n\nPlaced these Vareshas\nLords of the Week, Planets\nIn the Bha Chakra, the Zodiac !\n\nPropitiating them\nOn their respective days\nIs highly recommended\nAs it can bring relief !\n\nTuesday Vara Puja\n\nThis is observed to get the Grace of the Mother Divine and Hanuman. Those who have Martian affliction in their horoscopes also observe this Vara Puja. They go to Darshan of the temples of Goddess, Muruga and Hanuman. Rice and salt are avoided in supper. \n\nTuesday derives from the Norse Tiv's day. The Indian equivalent is Lord Subrahmanya, the Celestial Military Commander. The word Martial is derived from Mars. Administrative skill can only be there if a beneficent Mars is placed well in a horoscope. Those with Mars weak should get the Grace of Mars, of  Lord Muruga, Hanuman et al.\n\nWednesday  Vara Puja\n\nThis is observed by people who are suffering from Mercurian affliction, that is, from a badly placed Mercury in their horoscope. Darshan in the Temples of the Nine Planets, in the temples consecrated to Lord Vishnu.  Light food at supper.\n\nWoten's Day became Wednesday. In the East Budhavar is consecrated to Budha or Mercury. Mercurian affliction manifests as breaks in education, as poor knowledge, poor mathematical ability etc. Those who have weak Mercury in their charts should propitiate Mercury and Lord Vishnu's Avatars.\n\nThursday Vara Puja\n\nThis is observed by people who are afflicted by badly placed Jupiter or the affliction by Transit Jupiter. This is to please Lord Vishnu, whose Avatar represents Jupiter, Saumyotha Vishnur Guru. Early morning bath and Darshan in Temples dedicated to the Nine Revolving Heavens can bring home the result.\n\nThor's Day became Thursday. The Supreme Indian Deity, Lord Vishnu, represents the Father of the Heavens, Dyo Pithah or Jupiter. Those who have weak Jupiter in their horoscopes should please the Jupiter so that the Jupiterian Energy manifests in them. This Energy manifests as Genius, Poetry, Intuition, Inspiration et al. \n\nFriday Vara Puja\n\nThis is to please Goddess Anna Poorneswari. Lakshmi will grace the native. Those who undergo Venus Dasa normally do this Vara Puja. Observance of this is good for prosperity.\n\nVenus in three decanates represents different Deities. In a Sattwic decanate, She is Anna Poorneswari. In a Rajasic decanate, She is Lakshmi. In a Thamasic decanate, She is Durga ( Anna Poorneswaree Lakshmee Yakshee va Bhrigu Nandana ).\n\nWhether a decanate is Sattwic, Rajasic or Thamasic can be discerned by studying the decanate. If the decanate is ruled by Jupiter and Moon, the decanate is Satwic. If by Venus or Mercury, Rajasic.  And if by Mars and Saturn, Thamasic. \n\nSaturday Vara Puja\n\nThis is to please Lord Saturn. Those who suffer from Elarata Saturn and Angular Saturn ( Kandaka Sani ) normally do this. Have a bath early morning and go and see Lord Ayyappa, who is the Deity of Saturn, Manda Saasthadi Daivam. Do Neeranjanam. In temples dedicated to the Nine Planets, ellunthiri can be given to Lord Ayyappa.\n\nSaturn's Day is Saturday. Those who have a weak Saturn in their horosocpe should augment the Saturnine Energy. This Energy manifests as industriousness, shrewd cunning ( which is needed in Economics and Politics ) and knowledge of Psychology. Ayyappa, the son of Vishnu ( Sattwas ) and Shiva ( Thamas ) is the ideal Deity and He can imbue one with Saturnine Energy !\n\nSunday Vara Puja\n\nThose who suffer from a badly afflicted Sun do this Puja. Also for the destruction of all sins. One should fast on Sunday  and go to Darshan in Temples dedicated to the Nine Planets or Shiva, as the Deity of the Sun is Lord Shiva, Arka Shambu. \n\nPropitiate Sun. Chant Gayatri, Soorya Gayatri etc. One meal should be avoided on Sundays. Aditya Hridayam can be recited.\n <\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n
