We will be peforming Navagraha Shanti Puja, to Ease the Effects of Saturn's transit into Pisces along with 5 other Planets on March 29th, 2025, for the benefit of all living beings. 

On March 29th, a partial Solar eclipse will occur from 4:50 am - 8:43 am US EDT. Though Eclipses effect everyone in different ways, the most pronounced effects might be expected for people with Planets in Pisces, Aries, Cancer, Libra, or Capricorn in their birth charts. People with Key Planets in the Nakshatra of Uttarabhadra in particular may experience great transformations. This day is also Ugadi, the Vedic Lunar New Year's day.  

On Saturday March 29th, Saturn is transiting into the Sign of Pisces, and will be there along with 5 other Planets. This could have the potential to cause some obstructions for people whose lagna is Pisces, Aries, Leo, or whose Moon is placed in these Signs, or in Aquarius in particular. It is rare for 6 of the 9 Planets to be conjunct in one Sign. This can cause major upheavals or break throughs in the area of life indicated by one's natal chart. People with any Planet in Purvabhadra, Uttarabhadra, or Revati Nakshatras in their birth charts may experience pronounced effectss from these transits. This will have a unique impact for each person due to the house that Pisces occupies in a person's natal chart (among other factors).  Prayers to Ganesha or to the Nine Planets can help remove difficulties arising from Planetary transits.

People are invited to help us to complete these rituals for the benefit of society and to open themselves to the healing energy of the Pujas for easing the effects of the Planets in their individual charts by sponsoring the Puja.

To know exactly what areas of life this eclipse will affect, it is important to study the entire birth chart. Some general effects for each Lagna (ascendant) or sidereal Moon Sign are mentioned below:    

Leo

​For Leo, Pisces occupies the 8th House. As the 8th House indicates difficulties, this could increase serious problems of all sorts. There could be a tendency for people with this placement to worry exessively. This is a time to practice faith that everything that happens occurs for some higher good. Practicing mental peace and facing one's karma's joyously is helpful. Make sure that people you work with are supportive. If their goals and motivations are not aligned with your, it may be better to avoid working with that person. Seek support and avoid any tendency to isolate yourself or you may miss out on opportunites. Take care of your health and take some time to renew and refresh yourself. This could be a good time to go on a short spiritual retreat. Some will experience an increase of intuition at this time and may benefit from the study of Astrology or other mystical subjects.

However, be careful not involve yourself in petty disputes or arguments and remain empathetic to others around you at this time.

Being generous and giving to charities that serve needy people and spiritual organizations is a helpful practice at this time to help offset potential losses. Be careful to avoid letting debts build up. It is important now to practice introspection. Unresolved feelings around past betrayals and loses may resurface and cause problems. This may disrupt your sleep. Be mindful of your health and take measures to get adequate rest. Meditation is a great remedy for this transit which helps to clear our karma and bring us closer to moksha (libration). The 12th house indicates losses, but it also indicates moksha (the loss of the ego).
