The Navgrahas (nine planets) are an important part of Vedic astrology in determining one’s fate. Their position in the horoscope may be either fortunate or troublesome. To nullify planetary influences and clear obstructions caused by malefic planets, Hindus perform Navgrah Puja Samagri.
This puja is extremely auspicious because it invokes the blessings of all nine planets: Surya (the Sun), Chandra (the Moon), Mangal (Mars), Budh (Mercury), Guru (Jupiter), Shukra (Venus), Shani (Saturn), Rahu, and Ketu.
Samagri (puja items) is one of the most critical items of this puja. The use of the right samagri helps ensure that the rituals are conducted properly and that the Navgrahas’ blessings are obtained in full.
