Causes
Is Shrapit Dosha in your chart?The guide explains how Shrapit Dosha is read from a kundli. Mangal, Kaal Sarp and Pitru dosha are checked free at the top of this page.
A remedy, an upaya, is a practice kept with devotion over time. The texts give four kinds, and a priest or astrologer chooses among them for a chart.
A remedy is kept on its day, after a bath and with a calm mind, for as long as the period asks. A gemstone is worn only after a full chart reading.
The graha's beej mantra or a stotra, counted on a mala.
Worship of the deity who rules the afflicted graha.
Gifts of grain, cloth or food on the graha's day.
A fast on the graha's weekday or tithi.
Vaani reads your actual kundli and tells you which of these remedies apply, plus what the classical texts recommend for your specific placements.

On the weekday of the graha concerned, in the bright half of the month, after a bath and with a clear intention. Many families begin on a muhurta their priest chooses.
Mantra japa is often kept for 40 days, or for a set count such as 108 a day. Weekly fasts and charity are kept for as long as the period asks. Steadiness matters more than intensity.
No. The texts list many; one or two kept faithfully are enough to begin. A reading of your chart can name the ones it asks for.
Only after a full chart reading. A gemstone strengthens its graha, which helps only when that graha is a friend to your lagna.
Mantra, fasting and charity can be kept at home. Larger rites, such as a Kaal Sarp puja or Narayan Bali, are performed by a priest at the temples the tradition names.
