Introduction The Navagraha Suktam is a powerful Vedic hymn (sukta) dedicated to the nine celestial bodies—the Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, and the two lunar nodes: Rahu (ascending node) and Ketu (descending node). Unlike later astrological texts that personify these grahas as deities with moods, the Suktam approaches them as manifestations of cosmic energy, each governed by a specific Vedic deity (e.g., Surya, Chandra, Agni, etc.). Unlike later astrological texts that personify these grahas
“Awaken, O Agni (Mercury); be vigilant. Let all offerings and accumulated merits unite with you. May the Adityas, Rudras, and Vasus again offer to you perfectly.” 5. Brihaspati (Jupiter) – गुरु Sanskrit: ॐ बृहस्पते अति यदर्यो अर्हाद्द्युमद्विभाति क्रतुमज्जनेषु । यद्दीदयच्छवस ऋतप्रजात तदस्मासु द्रविणं धेहि चित्रम् ॥
