Shani Jayanti 2019
Shani Jayanti is celebrated as the birth anniversary of Lord Shani. He is known to be the son of Lord Sun or the Suryadev. It is celebrated during the Amavasya Tithi in the month of Vaishakh.
As per the epic and popular literature, Shani Maharaj represents the planet Saturn in people’s horoscope. Saturn plays a vital role as per Astrology. All Hindus attempt to please Shani Maharaj in order to cure any malefic effect on their lives, if at all. People who have the issue of Sade Sati in their kundli revere the Shani Dev even more. They fast and pray on this day to please the lord. It is believed that only if the Shani Graha is positioned in a positive manner will a person be endowed with all worldly pleasures else all his hard work goes waste.
