Lord Hanuman (Anjaneya, Bajrangbali, Pawanputra) · Sacred Geometry
Hanuman Yantra
हनुमान यन्त्र
The Hanuman Yantra is the geometric representation of Lord Hanuman's divine energy — the deity of strength, devotion, protection, and courage. Hanuman is one of the most widely worshipped deities in India, and the Hanuman Yantra is one of the most powerful protective yantras available. Tuesday and Saturday are the primary days for Hanuman worship, and the Hanuman Yantra is one of the most widely recommended remedies for Saturn's Sade Sati — because Hanuman is revered as one of the few beings that Saturn himself respects and cannot fully influence. The yantra encodes Hanuman's energy in a form that can be continuously present in the home or on the person, providing sustained protection without requiring daily ritual.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Hanuman Yantra good for Sade Sati?
Yes. The Hanuman Yantra is one of the most prescribed remedies for Saturn's Sade Sati. According to the tradition in the Ramayana and related texts, Shani (Saturn) attempted to trouble Hanuman but was subdued. Hanuman's energy is considered one of the few forces that mitigates Saturn's challenging influences. Worshipping the Hanuman Yantra on Saturdays, combined with Hanuman Chalisa recitation, is a widely recommended Sade Sati remedy.
Can Hanuman Yantra be kept at home?
Yes. The Hanuman Yantra is one of the most auspicious yantras to keep at home. Place it in the south direction or at the main entrance facing south. The south is considered the direction of Yama (the lord of death), and Hanuman as the protector faces this direction to guard the home. Keep it in the puja room, prayer space, or at the entrance — not in the bedroom.
