September 21 horoscope: which signs get a promotion, which see financial gains

Today is Monday in the Hindu month of Bhadrapada. The Moon is in Sagittarius, Saturn in Pisces, Rahu in Aquarius, Mars and Jupiter in Cancer, and the Sun and Mercury in Virgo. After 11.15 am, the Moon will move into Capricorn. Worship of Lord Shiva is recommended today, and after 11.15 am, with the Moon entering Saturn's sign, devotees are advised to worship Hanuman and recite the Hanuman Chalisa seven times along with Sundarkand. The coming together of Mars and Jupiter in Cancer, the Moon's own sign, is described as a good and rare alignment. Saturn is called the deity of justice who helps atone for sins of a past life, so one should neither wrong others nor tolerate injustice.

It is said one should water a peepal tree shortly before sunrise, as any mantra recited under a peepal tree is believed to bear fruit quickly. Worshipping one's chosen deity is considered better than performing planetary remedies. Devotion to Hanuman is described as the easiest way to turn Saturn's ill effects into good ones -- visit a Hanuman temple and offer a red cloth, roli, betel leaf, sacred thread, sweets, fruit and a garland of peepal leaves inscribed with Ram's name, while chanting Ram's name. Worship of Vishnu is considered essential in the month of Bhadrapada, with a daily recitation of the Vishnu Sahasranama advised. While worshipping Shiva, an abhishek with water from holy rivers is recommended, along with continued charity. This information has been provided by astrologer Sujit Ji Maharaj.
