About the ruling planet Saturn

The ruling planet of the 17 Mukhi Rudraksha is Saturn, known as Shani or Sauri in Vedic astrology. Saturn is the planet of discipline, karma, justice, and endurance. It represents the earth element and the color black. Saturn can bring hard work, responsibility, patience, and perseverance to one’s endeavors.

It can also help enhance the positive qualities of Saturn, such as wealth, success, and longevity.

Story about the presiding deity:

Vishwakarma is the creator of the architectural splendor of the golden city of Lanka. What was originally designed for Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati was eventually given to the Asura King Ravana as Dakshina. When lord Shiva reduced Kamdev to ashes with the fire emitted from his third eye it was Lord Vishwakarma who collected the ashes and made a doll with it. Lord Shiva breathed life into this to give rise to the mighty Bhanda (Bhandasura). When the radiance of Suryadev was too much for his wife to bear, Lord Vishwakarma collected the excess to craft celestial weapons from them thereby making Surya’s radiance bearable.

The splendor of magnificent architecture and creativity with a purpose is the blessing of Lord Vishwakarma. The 17 Mukhi Rudraksha encases this magical blessing. Women who wear the 17 Mukhi Rudraksha are blessed with a lovely marital life. It is known to bless them with an appropriate spouse, good children, happiness, and a prolonged life for the spouse. The mantra for Katyayani Devi can be chanted by women to seek her blessings.
