Kaal Sarp Yog (also referred to as Kaal Sarp Dosh) is an important astrological situation that is believed to invite multiple issues in an individual’s life. In Vedic astrology, when all the planets of a person’s horoscope fall between Rahu (the north node of the Moon) and Ketu (the south node of the Moon), Kaal Sarp Yog is created. This alignment of the planets is thought to lead to delays, setbacks, financial problems, illnesses, relationship issues, and mental anxiety.
Though Kaal Sarp Yog is powerful, its ill effects can be reduced by conducting the Kaal Sarp Yog Puja. This puja is traditionally conducted at very sacred locations such as Trimbakeshwar, Ujjain, or Kashi in the presence of a veteran Vedic priest. Yet, due to its extensive popularity, most devotees also want to learn how to conduct Kaal Sarp Yog Puja at home with dedication and proper procedure.

Significance of Kaal Sarp Yog Puja
Kaal Sarp Yog Puja is done to:
- Mitigate the malefic energies of Rahu and Ketu.
- destroys hurdles in career, marriage, and financial prosperity.
- Protect against evil energies and bad luck.
- Bring peace, stability, and prosperity in life.
- attain the blessings of Lord Shiva, Rahu, and Ketu.
Preparation of Kaal Sarp Yog Puja at Home
Certain preparations are required before performing the puja:

Puja Samagri (Materials Used):
- A photo or idol of Lord Shiva.
- Kalash (holy pot) with water.
- Milk, honey, ghee, sugar, and black sesame seeds.
- Naag-Nagin statues of silver, copper, or clay.

- Rice, turmeric, and sandalwood paste.
Mental Preparation
The devotee needs to have a pure heart, devotion, and noble intentions while performing the ritual.
Step-by-Step Procedure for Kaal Sarp Yog Puja at Home
1. Sankalp (Resolution)
Start the puja by making a Sankalp (vow) with folded hands. State your name, gotra, and the intention behind the puja—fearlessness from Kaal Sarp Yog and blessings for peace and prosperity.
2. Kalash Sthapana
Set a Kalash containing holy water on a rice grain plate. On it, keep mango leaves and a coconut covered with red cloth. This is a symbol of divine energy.
3. Lord Ganesha Puja
Call upon Lord Ganesha by presenting flowers, rice, and chanting “Om Gan Ganapataye Namah”. This action eliminates obstacles from the puja.
4. Lord Shiva Worship
Present water, milk, honey, black sesame seeds, and bel leaves to Shivling or Lord Shiva’s idol and chant Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra:
“Om Tryambakam Yajamahe Sugandhim Pushtivardhanam, Urvarukamiva Bandhanan Mrityor Mukshiya Maamritat”
5. Rahu-Ketu Puja
Put the Naag-Nagin idols before the Shivling. Give flowers, turmeric, kumkum, and milk. Repeat the following mantras:
- Rahu Mantra: “Om Bhram Bhreem Bhroum Sah Rahave Namah”
- Ketu Mantra: “Om Shram Shreem Shroum Sah Ketave Namah”
6. Rudrabhishek
Do Abhishek of Shivling using water, milk, honey, curd, and ghee while reciting Shiva mantras. This is the most effective step in counteracting Kaal Sarp Yog.
7. Havan (Optional at Home)
If feasible, do a small havan with ghee, sesame seeds, and wood pieces. Chant Rahu and Ketu mantras and offer ghee into the fire.
8. Aarti and Prasad
End the puja with camphor aarti and offering prasad to family members.
