The griha SANISCHARA (Saturn), also known as Manda, is generally known to affect one adversely on occasions when he occupies certain positions in one's horoscope like Saade Sati (7 1/2 years) Ashtama Sani (Saturn in 8 Th house - 2 1/2 years) etc. A prayer to this Devata, especially on Saturdays, is said to mitigate the hardships one will have to face during these periods. Sanischara is considered equally a bestower of all benefits to the devotees who pray sincerely to him.He is the Lord of Makaram and Kumbam He is the slowest moving planet taking 2 1/2 years in each Rasi, completing one cycle every 30 years.
Exclusive Temples exist for Sanischara at Thirunallar in Tamii Nadu, and also at Naydongri in Maharashtra. In Karnataka every township has a temple for Shanishwara and well worshiped by one and all.
This concludes our blog on the Navagraha however we shall post some details of plants which are considered as nava grahas and many of the Karnataka temples have the trees planted as per the seating of the navagraha deities.

Very nice and informative chittapa - especially the Navagraha. I did visit the Navagraha temples with my parents. However, having more knowledge about it and going around to these places would help us pray better too by relating the God.
Love,
Kuttan
