Worship method to please Shanidev and Bholenath
Wake up early in the morning, take bath and wear clean black or dark blue clothes. Take a pledge to fast. First of all, go to the temple and offer water and black sesame seeds on Shivling. Offer Belpatra while chanting the name of Bholenath. Go to Shani temple in the evening. Offer mustard oil on the rock of Shani Dev. Remember, do not look directly into their eyes, but look at their feet. Light a mustard oil lamp under the Peepal tree. Add some black sesame seeds in it. Circumambulating the Peepal tree seven times is very auspicious.
Do these special measures on the day of Shani Trayodashi
- Reading of Shani Chalisa: Recite Shani Chalisa and Hanuman Chalisa during the puja. This reduces the effect of Saturn’s Sadesati and Dhaiya.
- Importance of donation: On this day, donate black sesame, black urad, umbrella, shoes or black clothes to any needy person.
- Mantra chanting: For peace and mental peace, chant this Shani Dev mantra 108 times.

This day is also considered auspicious for getting freedom from the bondages of Pitra Dosh and karma. By worshiping on this day, the ongoing obstacles in life are removed and problems related to money, health and job are reduced.
