( The Nine Planets (Navagraha) · Suryanar Kovil, Kumbakonam )

Done to pacify malefic planetary periods and balance the nine grahas in your chart.
( What happens )
Each of the nine graha deities is invoked individually with its own mantra and offered flowers, rice, turmeric, sandalwood paste and a graha-specific coloured cloth, closed with a havan of at least nine ahutis (traditionally up to 108).
( Samagri )
( Context matters )
Suryanar Kovil, administered by the Tamil Nadu HR&CE department, is the only temple in Tamil Nadu with a separate shrine to each of the nine planetary deities — the reason it, rather than a general Vishnu or Shiva temple, is the traditional seat of this specific rite.
