Kalighat Mahakali-Shani Siddh-Kavach, Shatru-Sanhar and Sade Sati Shanti Mahayagya

Importance of This Maha Puja on Kali Chaudas
In Tantra and Vedic scriptures, Kartik Vaikunth Kali Chaudas is considered the most intense day for the sadhana of Mahakali and Shani Dev. According to Jyotish Shastra, Shani Dev is a supreme devotee and follower of Mahakali. On the night of Kali Chaudas, when the fierce form of Maa Kali and Shani Dev are worshipped together in one anushthan, the wrath of Shani’s Sade Sati, Dhaiya and fierce Mahadasha/Antardasha, and even the fiercest enemy obstacles, are said to be calmed at once.

The Power of the Mahakali-Shani Siddh-Kavach and Mahayagya
Maa Mahakali is the Aadya Shakti who destroys enemies and negativity, while Shani Dev is the god of justice who gives karma-born punishment and the troubles of Sade Sati. When this anushthan is done at the Kalighat Shaktipeeth and the Navgrah Shani Temple, with the “Siddh-Kavach” path and Mahayagya done in the devotee’s name and gotra, Shani Dev’s wrath turns into grace, and on the other side, Maa Kali’s unbreakable protective shield burns away the evil eye and tantra doshas from the devotee’s life forever.

History of the Kalighat Shaktipeeth (Kolkata) and Navgrah Shani Temple (Ujjain)
Kalighat in Kolkata is one of the very ancient Shaktipeeth of Tantra sadhana, where the toes of Mata Sati’s right foot fell. This place is the Jagrat home of Mahakali herself. The Navgrah Shani Temple on the bank of the holy Kshipra river in Ujjain is a very ancient and famous Shani Peeth of India, where Shani Dev sits together with the Navgrah mandal. This anushthan, done at both these Mahatirths together, is said to prove fruitful.
