Planitary Mantras

In Vedic astrology, there are nine planets [refered to as Navagrahas, "nava" -
'nine', "graha" - 'planet'] which have both positive and negative influences
on human life. When these planets create ill celestial effects the following
mantras may be recited in order to ease or negate them. The planets are also
ruled by different deities. Therefore, offerings to a planetary deity may
aid in this process.

These deities are as follows:
Sun - Surya
Moon - Chandra
Mars - Mangala
Mercury - Budha [not a typo]
Jupiter - Brihaspathi
Venus - Shukra
Saturn - Shani
