Astrology says that the planets affect the fortunes of human beings. The position of the nine planets – Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu – in a person’s birth chart determines the kind of life the person will have. When the planets are well placed, they exert a beneficial influence on our lives. If they are afflicted, they exert a harmful influence. The adverse effects of the planets will manifest as financial problems, unhappy relationships, illness, mental stress and disorders, marital discord, lack of progeny, etc. Chanting the Navagraha Dosha Nivaran Mantra can bring relief from such problems, as it is believed to have the power to appease the planets and eliminate their adverse effects.
