How to reduce saturn effects?

while during its mahadasha

carry an umbrella

During Saturn Mahadasha, pray to Lord Hanuman and Lord Ayyappan. Recite hanuman chalisa everyday. You may also recite Durga sapthasahi(also called Devi Mahathmyam).
Keep fast on every saturday, meaning early morning bath without applying oil, reciting hanuman chalisa, only vegetarian food but no rice at night.
Dip rice (or chapati or bread) in sesame oil and feed crows. If u do like this, the malefic effects of saturn will diminish.

Dridha or Fix karma, is the karma which is very difficult or impossible to avoid or change (only Divine grace could do it)
It is identified in the birth chart when there are many adverse indications showing the same affliction, usually repeated on the divisional charts, repeated from the moon ascendant (Chandra lagna) and without any benefic aspects of other planets or other placements suggesting the contrary. The more the indications showing the same thing in the chart, the more difficult it will be to change or avoid the results.
If the same indication is shown reading the chart from lagna, Chandra lagna and Surya lagna at the same time (sudharshana chakra) and there are no alleviating factors or aspects, the situation may be extremely difficult to change.

Adridha or non-fixed karma is the karma which can be change with a minimum effort, or the effect doesn鈥檛 last long enough to create a problem.
This can happen when there are actions done in the past which neutralize or compensate each other.
An example of that: suppose someone has done a wrong action like stealing in a past life, but after that he has also done a lot of charity and help to other people. He may still have to experience some negative result from the wrong action, perhaps being stolen or loose something dear, but because of the other and predominant good actions he may get unexpected donations, wealth, get help from others and recover the lost.
This can be seen on the chart when there is an affliction, but there are many other factors which bless the house or indicate the opposite result. For example, let鈥檚 say, there is a negative planet placed on a certain house, but the ruler of the house is exalted on another good house, hemmed between two benefic planets, and aspected by more than one benefic planet. The problem may still have to be experienced and will manifest in certain time of the life, but it can be overcome easily or even turned into something good at the end.

it is better weighed the FUNCTIONAL NATURE OF PLANETS to try mantras homas
try :


Saturn indicates areas that we have to focus and develop responsibility. Develop inner strength and capacity to bear the hardships of life.
Develop strict inner discipline but without repression of the human love and compassion.
Learn to be humble, work hard and serve other people as a duty, without feeling humiliated or expecting nothing in return.
Practice of concentration, austerities, fasting and seclusion for spiritual strengthening.
Work hard for the benefit of others without expectations, as an offering to God. Serve the Sick, afflicted and poor people.

what the hell, did someone just suggest preying. calm down guys its only horoscopes. you cannot reduce anything, the fact is you do not want to reduce its affect because its good for you. if you want to be walking around all confused and in need of help, then do that. Saturn teaches people good lessons, that's an opportunity not a curse. its hard i know, but its nothing comparing to the challenges faced by Leos and cancers when Saturn passes though them.

I wonder , sometimes, if the people who post here, actually know what they are talking about. Really !!! First and foremost, i don't know your age but let us assume you are young. Saturn effect will not have any effect on you except physically, ex....break a bone, sensible to cold and humidity etc... Now, at the age of 45 and upward, all the lessons that he has given you , he will test you over and ovedr again, to make sure that you have UNDERSTOOD his lessons and that you have LEARNT from them.
He can kill you, or extend your life to 99 yrs old. He returns to his natal position every 50 years or so. Many die in their 50's because of health or wtv... But , those who have taken care of themselves will see Saturn in another 50 years. God Bless!!

Each planet governs a certain period in life. The scope is too extensive to start giving you a lecture on this.
