The Ritual and Its Weight

Hasta is the nakshatra of the hand — the palm held open, the fingers that shape, count, heal and give. Its presiding deity is Savitr, the impelling Sun, the one who sets things in motion at dawn. The Hasta Nakshatra Homa is the fire rite offered to that star and that deity, performed for a devotee born under Hasta or passing through its dasha or transit periods.

In the tradition, your janma nakshatra is not merely a label on a horoscope. It is the doorway through which your prarabdha reaches you. When that doorway is honoured with fire, mantra and offering — on the day the Moon returns to Hasta, or on your birth-star day each month — the classical texts prescribe it for protection, for clarity of purpose, and for the steadying of livelihood. Our priests perform the hasta nakshatra homam on your behalf at the Yagna Ashram and telecast it to you, wherever you are.

ॐ सवित्रे नमः । तत्सवितुर्वरेण्यं भर्गो देवस्य धीमहि । धियो यो नः प्रचोदयात् ॥ We meditate upon the radiant glory of Savitr, the divine impeller; may he set our thoughts and our work in right motion.

Why Devotees Book This

Devotees turn to the Hasta Nakshatra Homa when they wish to align with their birth star and ask Savitr for protection and steady prosperity.

Birth-star alignment

Offered for those born under Hasta, to honour the janma nakshatra and settle the influences it carries through a lifetime.

Protection through Hasta periods

Traditionally prescribed when the Moon, a dasha or a difficult transit moves through Hasta, and you want the fire to stand between you and the turbulence.

Skill and livelihood

Hasta rules the hand and its crafts. Artisans, surgeons, writers, cooks, traders and healers offer this homa for steadiness in the work their hands do.

Clarity and right effort

Savitr is the impeller of thought. The rite is offered for focus, for decisive action, and for effort that does not scatter.

Prosperity that holds

The open palm of Hasta is the palm that receives and the palm that gives. Devotees offer this homa for sustained wealth rather than sudden gain.

For children of Hasta

Parents book the homa for a child born in Hasta — as a blessing at naming, at Aksharabhyasa, or on each returning birth-star day.

Sacred timing

The most auspicious days for a Hasta Nakshatra Homa

The homa is most auspicious when the sky itself is turned toward Hasta. Our panchanga desk fixes the muhurat for you and confirms the date before the rite.

Hasta Nakshatra day

The day the Moon transits Hasta — the natural day for this homa, returning once every lunar month.

Your janma nakshatra day

Devotees born under Hasta offer the homa on their birth-star day each month, or once a year near the solar birthday.

Sunrise Brahma muhurat

Savitr is the dawn impeller. The early morning hours are held most fitting for the offerings to Him.

Before beginnings

Prescribed before a new venture, a move, a marriage, a surgery or the start of an apprenticeship, when the hands are about to take up new work.

You do not need to wait for one of these days. Whenever you book, our astrologers calculate the muhurta from your own birth chart — a date chosen for you personally, which tradition regards as more precise than a calendar date chosen for everyone. If you would like the homa on one of the days above, tell us at checkout and we will fix the muhurta within it.

Every package, and the 48-day option

What you receive

The sealing of the Hasta Nakshatra Yantra

When your homa concludes, the yantra that stood in the fire is rolled and locked inside its silver amulet according to Agama vidhi — the practice by which the energies raised in a ritual are held within a consecrated object rather than dispersing. It is why a homa performed at our ashram can still reach a devotee ten thousand miles away: what the fire raised travels to you, sealed.

Personal sankalpa

Your name, gotra & nakshatra — for you and up to five family members.

Live telecast

Watch your own homa in real time from the ashram. Streamed openly on our YouTube channel by default — or request an unlisted telecast at checkout.

Free energised Hasta Nakshatra Yantra, sealed in a silver amulet

Consecrated over three days — Jala (holy-water consecration with mantras), Prana (life force through pranayama & chants) and Jeeva Pratishta (awakened with 108 recitations & offerings) — then present through your homa, receiving the energies raised in the fire. Immediately afterwards it is rolled and sealed inside a silver amulet by Agamic rite, locking those energies within, and shipped to you with your prasadam.

Prasadam, shipped free

Sacred vibhuti, sandalwood powder & kumkum from your fire — delivered to any country.

Yantra Pujas inside our consecrated sanctum

48-Day Anushthan (optional) — daily pujas for 48 days — the 27 Nakshatras + 12 Rashis + 9 Planets — then sealed in a silver amulet of approximately 2–4 inches. Performed in our consecrated sanctum at the Yagna Ashram.

A note on sacred tradition

As per strict Agama vidhi, no videography is permitted inside the temple sanctum — this preserves the pure sacred energies and undisturbed divine focus of the ritual. The main homa is respectfully telecast live from outside the sanctum.

Homas are telecast openly on our YouTube channel so that devotees everywhere may witness the rituals — and because we believe you should be able to see our work before you trust us with yours. Your sankalpa names you and your family, so if you would rather your ceremony were not public, choose the private telecast option at checkout and it is streamed as an unlisted link, which does not appear on our channel or in search, though anyone who has the link can watch it and share it.

We state this plainly — transparency about what tradition forbids filming, and about what is public, is part of performing these rituals honestly.

After it arrives

How to wear your energised Hasta Nakshatra Yantra

The energised yantra is carefully rolled and sealed inside a sacred silver amulet before shipping. Wearing it is itself a small ritual.

01

Your auspicious time to wear it

Wear it for the first time on the day named in your dispatch email, between 6.30 and 7.30 in the morning. Bathe first, place the yantra on your pooja altar and offer your prayers, then wear it around your neck or your waist, on a red or black thread or a silver chain.

02

At a funeral

Take the yantra off before you attend a funeral.

03

Purify the amulet

Whenever the yantra has been taken off, or if it was worn at a funeral, dip it in raw milk or Ganga jal, show it incense, dhoop or attar (perfume), and then wear it again.

04

Keep the energy intact

You may repeat this energising once a week or once a month.

Inside the fire ritual

01

Sankalpa

The priest states your name, gotra and nakshatra — and those of up to five family members — with the intention this homa is performed for.

Agni Pratishtha

The fire is consecrated in the homa kunda and Agni invoked as the carrier of every offering that follows.

04

Savitr Avahana

The mula mantra of Savitr is chanted, inviting the deity's presence into the fire — by one, three or five priests as your package sets.

05

Ahuti

Ghee and akshata, with the flowers, grains and dravyas proper to this deity, are offered in sequence with mantra.

06

Purnahuti

The final complete offering seals the sankalpa stated at the opening.

07

Aarti & Dispatch

Aarti is performed live on your telecast. Vibhuti, sandalwood powder, kumkum and your energised Hasta Nakshatra Yantra are then packed and shipped free to your door.

Who is invoked

Savitr

Savitr is the Sun in his impelling aspect — not the disc that merely shines, but the power that sets things moving at first light and draws them to rest at dusk. The Rigveda calls him golden-handed, hiranya-hasta, and hymns him with raised arms of light that reach across the worlds; the famous Gayatri verse, tat savitur varenyam, is addressed to him. He governs beginnings, right impulse, and the quickening of thought and skill. As lord of the star of the open palm, he presides over what hands do — craft, healing, counting, giving, service done well. Devotees turn to this form when work must find direction, when discipline needs steadying, and when they wish their daily labour to be offered as something more than labour.

In this homa that grace is invoked through fire, with your own name and birth details spoken in the sankalpa.

Questions

Frequently asked

Yes. Hasta is a benevolent nakshatra, classed as light and swift, and favoured in the tradition for skill, healing, craftsmanship, trade and quick intelligence. No nakshatra is unlucky — each carries its own strengths and its own tests. Hasta natives are known for dexterity and resourcefulness; the homa is offered to strengthen those gifts and to steady the periods when the star's influence feels strained.
Hasta is the thirteenth nakshatra, spanning 10°00' to 23°20' of Kanya (Virgo). Its symbol is the open hand or palm, its presiding deity is Savitr — the impelling Sun of dawn — and its ruling planet is Chandra, the Moon. Its five stars form the shape of a hand in the sky. Hasta governs skill, craft, healing, precision work and the ability to hold what one has earned.
The Hasta Nakshatra Homa is a Vedic fire ritual dedicated to Hasta and its deity Savitr. Offerings are made into the consecrated fire with the nakshatra's own mantras while the devotee's name, gotra and birth star are invoked. Its significance lies in aligning you with your janma nakshatra — the tradition prescribes it for protection, for clarity of purpose, and for the steady prosperity that comes of skilled, sustained effort.
The tradition prescribes the hasta nakshatra homam for birth-star alignment, protection during Hasta-related dashas and transits, steadiness in work that depends on skill and the hands, clarity of thought under Savitr's impelling grace, and sustained prosperity. It is also offered as a blessing for children born under Hasta. The rite is an offering, not a guarantee; devotees perform it as an act of faith and sankalpa.
Anyone born under Hasta nakshatra, or with the Moon, Lagna or a significant planet placed there. It is also offered by those running a Chandra dasha or bhukti connected to Hasta, by parents on behalf of a Hasta-born child, and by those in hand-skilled professions — surgeons, artisans, musicians, cooks, therapists, traders. You do not perform it yourself; our qualified priests perform it on your behalf at the Yagna Ashram.
The day the Moon transits Hasta is the most fitting, and it recurs each lunar month. The dawn hours are preferred, since Savitr is the deity of the rising light. Many devotees fix it on their own birth-star day, before a new venture, or annually near their birthday. Share your birth details when you book and our panchanga desk will fix and confirm the muhurat.
The priests begin with achamana, Ganapati puja and punyahavachanam, then take the sankalpa in your name, gotra and nakshatra. The kalasha is established, Savitr and the Hasta devata are invoked, and Agni is kindled in the kunda. Ahutis of ghee, samidha, havis, grains, sesame and the nakshatra's prescribed vanaspati are offered with the Hasta and Savitr mantras. The rite closes with purnahuti, arati, prarthana and the blessing of prasadam and the Hasta Nakshatra Yantra.
Book online from any country on this page. Give your name, gotra and birth star, and choose your preferred date. Our priests perform the homa at our Yagna Ashram in Pollachi, Coimbatore District on your behalf and telecast it live to you, so you can sit with the fire wherever you are. Prasadam and an energised Hasta Nakshatra Yantra are couriered to your address worldwide, free of charge.
Our silver amulets are specially made for everyday wear: copper is added to the silver to make them more durable. With regular use, the amulet may turn black, reddish or brown as it is exposed to heat and reacts with the chemicals in cosmetics. Wipe it regularly with a soft, dry cotton cloth, keep perfume and cosmetics away from it, and clean it by rubbing it gently with a pinch of vibhuti (sacred ash). Every six months, polish it with cotton dipped in a silver cleaner, but never soak or dip the amulet itself. Never open it, as the energies of the yantra are sealed inside. If it is ever damaged, send it back to us, not to a jeweller.
For the birth star, and life's quiet measure
