New Delhi — : Black cows hold a sacred place in Hindu culture and are often regarded as a divine channel for planetary blessings. Religious texts and Vedic astrology highlight the spiritual and astrological significance of feeding roti to a black cow—especially on Saturdays. This ancient ritual is said to neutralize the malefic effects of Saturn (Shani), Rahu, and Ketu, and is believed to attract prosperity, mental peace, and spiritual upliftment.
Black Cow: A Symbol of Saturn’s Influence
Astrologically, the black cow is directly linked to Lord Shani, the planetary deity of karma and justice. During periods of Shani Sade Sati or Dhaiyya, individuals are advised to feed roti laced with jaggery or sesame to a black cow every Saturday. This act is believed to pacify Saturn’s harsh effects, easing obstacles, delays, and persistent life challenges.
Rahu, Ketu & Kalsarp Dosh Relief
Apart from Saturn, the shadow planets Rahu and Ketu also respond positively to this ritual. Those suffering from Kalsarp Dosh or adverse Rahu-Ketu dasha often experience confusion, fear, or chronic stress. Feeding roti to a black cow acts as a simple yet powerful remedy that reduces negative planetary vibrations and enhances clarity and emotional balance.
How to Perform the Ritual Correctly
The optimal time for this practice is early Saturday morning after a bath. Prepare roti by adding jaggery or sesame seeds, and optionally apply mustard oil on the surface. Chant “Om Sham Shanaishcharaya Namah” silently while feeding the cow. This enhances the spiritual potency of the ritual and aligns your energies with the blessings of Shani Dev.
Major Benefits of Feeding Roti to a Black Cow
Debt Relief: Regular practice can gradually ease financial burdens and reduce liabilities.
Career Growth: Helps those struggling with job instability or promotions due to Saturn’s influence.
Harmonious Relationships: Resolves household disputes and strengthens marital bonds.
Protection from Evil Energies: Enhances positivity in the home and wards off negative forces.
Astrologers and spiritual practitioners consistently recommend this ritual as an accessible remedy for balancing planetary influences and promoting overall well-being.
