Shani Mantra

Shani (Saturn) is One of the Navagrahas of Vedic Astrology and influences all lives. Those who have experienced Shani mahadasa, Shani Sade sati know it all. Here are some Shani Mantras that appear in Vedic Astrology
सूर्य पुत्रो दीर्घ देहो विशालाक्षः शिवप्रियः।
मन्दचारः प्रसन्नात्मा पीडां हरतु मे शनिः ॥
Suryaputhro Deerghadeho Vishaalaakshah Shivapriyah |
Mandachaarah Prasannathmaa peedam harathu me Shanih ||

Dasaratha Shani Stotra

It is said that during the reign of king Dasaratha when Shani was about to enter Rohini Nakshatra, king Dasaratha worshipped Shani and pleased with his prayers Saturn did not enter Rohini during the reign of king Dasharatha. Hence the Dasaratha Shani stotras are considered an excellent remedy for Saturn related troubles.
