About Navagraha Shanti
The Navagraha Shanti is the puja of the nine planetary deities — Surya, Chandra, Mangal, Budh, Guru, Shukra, Shani, Rahu and Ketu — worshipped in the traditional order with their own grains, cloths, woods and mantras. Each graha has a fixed number of japa and its own samidha for the havan.
It is kept at a birth, before a marriage, at the start of a dasha, and where a family's custom asks for it annually. The tradition describes it as an act of propitiation and nothing on this site will describe it as producing an outcome. Three hours, at home, with a havan as its closing part.
Keeping a rite in Prayagraj
Prayagraj's rites are the Sangam's. Tarpan, asthi visarjan, shraddh and the mundan kept at the confluence are what the city's pandits do most, and the sands where they are done exist for part of the year and are under water for the rest.
Magh is the busy month — the annual mela, and the Kumbh and Ardh Kumbh at their own intervals — when the whole city is arranged around the mela ground. Domestic rites in the civil lines and the older town go on regardless, and are unaffected by any of it.
