Shani or Saturn is a planet that is much feared by people who believe in astrology. Shani is considered a malefic planet that makes a person undergo many hardships in life. King Nala is said to have lost his kingdom and wife because of Shani’s influence. The planet brings restriction and contraction. It is believed to slow down one’s progress, pose hurdles to success, cause unending struggles and constant disappointments. It can also cause loneliness, dejection, distress, delays, death, losses, chronic suffering, loss of ambition, etc. It is also the planet of justice and dispenses results based on your karma. For those who are suffering from Shani afflictions, the Shani Mantra is a powerful remedy. It is believed to appease Shani and reduce its adverse effects.
