Shani Planet Remedies To Try

Saturn is the slowest moving planet in the solar system. Due to this it is a cold, barren, dry, secretive planet and its effects are felt with greater intensity and for longer period than any other planet. Saturn is known as Shani in Hindu astrology. It is said that Shani planet is favourable to all those people born under signs owned by Venus. While Saturn is evil to those who are born under the signs owned by Mercury.

The book of astrology depicts Shani as a serpent, whose head is Rahu and tail is Ketu. If Ketu is positioned in earlier houses than Shani then it is highly beneficial to the person. However if it is placed the other way round then Shani can have a very bad effect on the person. Shani further gives bad results if it is positioned in the house of Jupiter. Sun, Moon, Mars are its enemies while Venus and Rahu are its friends. So, if you are facing problems in your life due to its bad position then here are some Shani planet remedies for you.

Luckily these Shani planet remedies are easy to follow and you can definitely get quick benefits out of these. Here are some Shani planet remedies:
