Vinayak Chaturthi and Using It to Remove Doshas from the Kundli
Because even the stars need a little divine debugging sometimes.
Vinayak Chaturthi
: Your Cosmic Reset Button for Astrological Troubles
You know Vinayak Chaturthi (or Sankashti Chaturthi, as it's called when it comes after a full moon) isn't just about delicious
modaks
, lighting lamps, and maybe a little eye-rolling at your neighbor's extra loud
aarti
. Spiritually, it's a huge cosmic reset button, especially if you're carrying around heavy astrological baggage like a
Shani Dosh
,
Rahu-Ketu Dosh
,
Mangal Dosh
, or that messy, uninvited
Saturn Return
drama.
This powerful day can actually help fix what feels astrologically broken. Here's how:
1. Worship Ganesh with the Right Mantras
Ganesh isn't
just
the one who removes obstacles; he's your VIP pass to bypass any planetary grudges. On this day, chanting "
Om Gan Ganapataye Namah
" 108 times can seriously help to calm down those troublesome planetary alignments. If you're dealing with issues from
Ketu
or
Rahu
, you might find this particularly soothing—think of it as a spiritual mosquito repellent.
2. Offer
Durva Grass
and Modaks Like It's a Peace Treaty
Ganesh absolutely loves Durva grass and Modaks. Offering 21 blades of Durva is said to soften the wrath of
Mars (Mangal Dosh)
and
Saturn (Shani Dosh)
. It's not about bribery; it's more like a divine negotiation with some very sweet incentives.
3. Perform Ganesh Abhishek with Panchamrit
That classic mix of milk, honey, sugar, curd, and ghee isn't just a recipe; it's a powerful pantry alchemy. This symbolic cleanse helps to realign your chakras and soothe any planetary agitation. Dealing with a
Mangal Dosh
? Bathe Ganesh, and you might just find Mars chilling out.

4. Light a Desi Ghee Diya Facing East
Light a lamp made with
desi ghee
and place it facing east. As you do, mentally send an "unsubscribe" email to all your obstacles. Lighting lamps on this day helps bring clarity and dispels issues from
Sun
and
Mercury doshas
—no shady retrograde energy allowed here!
5. Donate for Karma Clearance
Vinayak Chaturthi is a prime day for a karmic detox. Donating food, sweets, or school supplies can help clear out debts with
Jupiter (Guru Dosh)
and
Mercury (Budh Dosh)
. Think of it as charitable astrology—a spiritual investment with a tax-free return.
6. Moon Connection: Observe a Fast Until Moonrise
Keeping a
Sankashti Vrat
(a fast) until moonrise helps align your energy with the moon to detox any subconscious karmas. It's like taking your birth chart to therapy and letting the Moon be your wise counselor.
