The Ritual and Its Weight

The Santhana Lakshmi Homa is a fire ritual addressed to Santhana Lakshmi, one of the eight forms of Sri Lakshmi. Where other forms grant grain, courage or victory, this one is invoked for santhana — offspring, and the continuity of a household through them. Couples waiting for a child, mothers in a delicate pregnancy, and parents praying for a son or daughter's wellbeing have turned to this rite for generations. It sits beside the santhana gopala homa in the progeny tradition, but the prayer here rises to the Mother rather than to the child-Krishna.

In the fire, ghee, milk, honey, banana and lotus are offered while the priests recite the Santhana Lakshmi mantra and the Sri Sukta. Each oblation carries the sankalpa — your names, your gotra, your nakshatra — into Agni, who is the messenger. What tradition prescribes here is shelter: for the womb, for the birth, for the growing child. The santana lakshmi homa is a prayer that a family does not end with itself. Where a santhana lakshmi puja at home is not possible, priests perform the rite at our Yagna Ashram on your behalf and you watch the fire live.

ॐ श्रीं ह्रीं क्लीं सन्तानलक्ष्म्यै नमः Salutations to Santhana Lakshmi, the Mother who bestows children and guards the continuity of the family line.

Why Devotees Book This

Devotees come to the Santhana Lakshmi Homa at different points on the same road — waiting, expecting, or watching over a child already born.

Prayer for conception

Couples hoping for a child offer this homa as a formal, witnessed appeal to Santhana Lakshmi for progeny.

Shelter through pregnancy

The tradition prescribes this rite during pregnancy, asking the Mother's protection over the womb and the months ahead.

Blessings on the child

Oblations are offered for the wellbeing, health and long life of children already in the family.

Continuity of the lineage

Santhana Lakshmi is invoked for the unbroken flow of the family line, generation to generation.

Peace within the household

The homa is taken up to steady a home worn thin by waiting, and to restore harmony between partners and elders.

Relief for progeny-related afflictions

Charts showing strain on the fifth house or on Jupiter, and putra dosha indications, are commonly addressed through this rite.

Step 1 How many priests will perform your homa?

Has your astrologer prescribed a different number of ahutis? Our priests can review it and arrange a customised homa. Call our Devotee Relationship Team on +91 96295 55442 — they confirm the count, the priests, the approximate duration and the total price before you book.

Step 2 Enhance with the 48-Day Anushthan? (optional)

* Your Santhana Lakshmi Yantra is a copper plate approx. 1–2 inches, rolled and sealed inside a silver amulet approx. 2–4 inches. Sizes are approximate and the amulet's design varies between supplier batches — shape, metal and consecration remain the same.

Sacred timing

The most auspicious days for a Santhana Lakshmi Homa

The homa may be booked on any day, but the tradition favours certain windows for progeny prayers.

Friday

The day of Sri Lakshmi. Fridays in the bright fortnight, especially at sunrise, are the classic choice for any Lakshmi homa.

Purva Phalguni, Rohini and Pushya nakshatras

Stars associated with fertility, nourishment and the growth of a household — long favoured for progeny rites.

Shukla Paksha Panchami and Ashtami

Waxing-moon tithis, chosen for anything meant to grow and increase, including a family.

Varalakshmi Vratam and Navaratri

Days on which the Ashta Lakshmi forms are worshipped in full; many families book the homa in this season each year.

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 Santhana Lakshmi Yantra

The Santhana Lakshmi Yantra is 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. When your homa concludes, it is rolled and locked inside its silver amulet according to Agama vidhi — the practice by which those energies 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 — and up to four family members if you wish. No one else is named.

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 any family members you add, 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 Santhana Lakshmi Yantra

01

Your auspicious time to wear it

Wear it for the first time on a Friday, 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

How your Santhana Lakshmi Homa is performed

Priests performing the Santhana Lakshmi Homa at AstroBhava's Yagna AshramThese seven steps, as they happenFrom a live telecast at our Yagna Ashram
01

Sankalpa

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

02

Ganapati Puja

The customary invocation to Ganapati, clearing obstacles before the deity is approached.

03

Agni Pratishtha

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

04

Santhana Lakshmi Avahana

The mula mantra of Santhana Lakshmi 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. Each priest makes 108 of these offerings with the mula mantra of Santhana Lakshmi — 108, 324 or 540 in all, by package.

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 Santhana Lakshmi Yantra are then packed and shipped free to your door.

Who is invoked

Santhana Lakshmi

Among the eight forms of Sri Lakshmi sung in the Ashta Lakshmi stotra, this is the Mother who presides over santhana — children and the unbroken continuity of a household. Iconography shows her seated with six arms, bearing two kalashas, a sword and a shield, one hand raised in abhaya, and an infant held at her hip while the child's small hand reaches toward her. The vessels hold the nourishment of life; the sword and shield show that she guards what she gives. Devotees read her as Lakshmi in the aspect of a protecting mother rather than a bestower of coin, and turn to her while waiting for a child, through the months of carrying one, and in the long years of raising one. The Sri Sukta praises her as the wealth that includes progeny.

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

Questions

Frequently asked

The Santhana Lakshmi Homa, also called the Santhana Lakshmi Homam or Santana Lakshmi Homam, is a Vedic fire ritual dedicated to Santhana Lakshmi, one of the eight forms of Sri Lakshmi, who presides over children and the continuity of a family. The priests kindle Agni, make a sankalpa in your name and gotra, and offer ghee, milk, honey and fruit with mantra. Its significance lies in the prayer it carries: for progeny, a safe pregnancy and a lineage that continues. It belongs to the same progeny tradition as the Santhana Gopala Homam, but addresses the Mother rather than the child Krishna.
Tradition prescribes this homa for couples praying to conceive, for the protection of a pregnancy, and for the health and long life of children already born. It is also taken up for peace in a household strained by long waiting, for the continuity of the family line, and where a horoscope shows affliction to the fifth house or to Jupiter, or indications of putra dosha. The rite is an act of prayer and surrender, offered alongside medical care, never in place of it.
This homa is for married couples hoping for a child, couples expecting one and their families, and parents praying over a child's wellbeing. Elders and grandparents often book it for the younger generation, naming the couple in the sankalpa. The fire itself is tended by qualified priests at our Yagna Ashram, who perform it on your behalf as one private ceremony for you and up to four family members, while you watch the live telecast from wherever you are.
Our priests perform it at our Yagna Ashram, beginning with achamana, Ganapati puja and punyahavachana, then the sankalpa in your name, gotra and nakshatra. A kalasha is installed and Santhana Lakshmi invoked in it. Agni is kindled in the kunda and the ahutis follow, every priest making their own offerings of cow ghee, milk, honey, banana, lotus petals, navadhanya, durva and samidha, and the prescribed verses are recited in her honour. Purnahuti, deeparadhana and prayer for your family close the rite. All samagri is arranged by us, and you watch it all on live telecast.
You can book the Santhana Lakshmi Homa with one, three or five priests. Each package is the complete homa, with the same ritual stages and the same kinds of offerings, performed privately for you and up to four family members and never combined with another booking. What changes is the number of priests: every priest makes their own ahutis, the offerings into the fire, and all of them perform at the same time, in one ceremony. An ahuti count is a count of these offerings, not a japa count, which measures repetitions of a mantra. Each priest makes 108 ahutis: 108 in all with one priest, 324 with three and 540 with five, in approximately 1 hour. A larger package adds priests and offerings, not a second ceremony. Choose the scale that fits your intention, preference and budget; the one-priest homa is complete in itself, and no package guarantees a particular result.
Yes. Our listed Santhana Lakshmi Homa packages specify standard ahuti counts and priest numbers. If your astrologer has prescribed a different count, we can arrange a customised homa following review by our priests. Please share your requirements with our Devotee Relationship Team on +91 96295 55442. The team will confirm the ahuti count, number of priests, approximate duration and total price before you book. Your customised homa remains a private ceremony dedicated to your sankalpa, never combined with other customers' bookings.
About an hour, whichever package you choose: the priests perform together and make their offerings at the same time, so three or five priests do not lengthen the ceremony. Your muhurta, the date and time, is confirmed by email within 24–48 working hours of booking, and the live telecast link arrives the day before, so you can follow every stage wherever you are.
You do not need to wait for an auspicious day. 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 prefer one of the days traditionally sacred to Santhana Lakshmi — a Friday in the bright fortnight, Purva Phalguni, Rohini or Pushya nakshatra, the Panchami or Ashtami of the waxing moon, Varalakshmi Vratam, or Navaratri — tell us in the notes at checkout and we will fix the muhurta within it. Our Panchang shows the tithi and nakshatra for any date.
Yes. What directs a homa is its sankalpa: the solemn resolve the priest makes before the fire is kindled, stating who the homa is for and what it is offered for. The deity invoked and the ritual remain the same; the purpose is yours, as your astrologer has advised it. So if you have been advised the Santhana Lakshmi Homa for a reason other than those on this page, write that purpose in your own words in the “Your sankalpa” box on the birth-details page, straight after payment, and the priest will state it in the sankalpa with your name, gotra and nakshatra. If the advice also names a date, a number of ahutis or a number of priests, mention it in the notes at checkout, or call our Devotee Relationship Team on +91 96295 55442 before you book.
Book the Santhana Lakshmi Homa online on this page, from India or from any other country; devotees living abroad book it the same way, and prices are shown in your currency. Choose one, three or five priests, and straight after payment add your name, gotra if you know it and your birth star, with your prayer for the homa in the “Your sankalpa” box. Your muhurta is confirmed by email within 24–48 working hours and the live telecast link arrives the day before, so you can watch the entire homa live, wherever you are. Afterwards, prasadam and your energised Santhana Lakshmi Yantra are couriered to you anywhere in the world, free of shipping cost.
Every Santhana Lakshmi Homa package includes the energised Santhana Lakshmi Yantra: a copper plate of about 1–2 inches, consecrated over three days and present in the fire through your homa. It is then rolled and sealed inside a silver amulet of about 2–4 inches, made to be worn, and couriered to you with your prasadam, free of shipping cost, usually reaching you in 1–2 weeks within India and 2–4 weeks internationally from the homa’s completion; the tracking email gives your personal time to wear it. If you add the optional 48-Day Anushthan, the yantra is also worshipped daily in our consecrated sanctum for 48 days before it is sealed.
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.

Your ritual date is an auspicious muhurta calculated personally for you — not a slot on a rota. Once it is confirmed, rescheduling from the customer's side is not available, and cancellation does not carry a refund. If we ever have to move your ritual for unforeseen reasons at the ashram, we will inform you immediately and provide a fresh auspicious date at no cost — and your telecast, recording, prasadam and yantra remain exactly as promised.
