Kaal Sarp Dosh Shanti

Half Day (4-5 Hours)

Importance

Kaal Sarp Dosh is one of the most feared astrological conditions in Hindu astrology. It occurs when all planets (Graha) are positioned between Rahu (North Node) and Ketu (South Node) in the birth chart. This dosh can cause persistent obstacles in career, marriage, health, and overall life progress.

The most powerful remedy for Kaal Sarp Dosh is performing the Kaal Sarp Dosh Nivaran Puja at Trimbakeshwar Jyotirlinga — one of the twelve sacred Jyotirlingas of Lord Shiva and the origin of the Godavari River.
