How to spot problems caused by weak planets and eliminate them Part VIII – Mercury



Remedial measures for Problems caused by Mercury
To propitiate Mercury, chant the following Mantra everyday in the morning either 28 or 108 times. Another very effective way is to recite the entire 1000 names of Lord Vishnu given in Vishnu Sahastra Nam Stotra. If you find it difficult to do this every day due to paucity of time, it must be done at least every Wednesday.
Padm Puran has a Stotra of 25 names of Mercury, and its daily chanting is extremely helpful in propitiating Mercury.
As mentioned above, Mercury is the planet of trade, commerce and accounting. His weakness can therefore result in shortage of finances. If you find that money does not stay in your hands for very long, chant the following Mantra from Rig-Ved at least 10 times before and after recitation of Shri Sookt.  
भूरिदा भूरि  देहि नो मा दभ्रं भूर्या भर भूरि देधिन्द्र दित्ससि। 
भूरिदा हयसी  श्रुत पुरुत्र शूर वृत्रहं आ नो भजस्व राधसि।।


BHOORIDA BHOORI DEHI NO MA DABHRAM BHOORYA BHAR BHOORI DEDHINDRA DITSASI
BHOORIDAHAYASI SHRUT PURUTRA SHOOR VRITRHAN AA NO BHAJASV RADHSI
 
Shri Sookt is available in booklet form from all bookstores selling religious books.
 
Mercury is the planet of intellect and his affliction can results in interrupted sleep and nightmares. In such cases the chanting of the eight names of Lord Vishnu every morning, afternoon and night proves very helpful. This is taken from Vaman Puran.

Badly placed Mercury can cause stage fright and inability to express oneself freely. Daily recitation of Budh Kavach removes this problem from the root by increasing self confidence. This especially true of Gemini and Virgo ascendants where Mercury becomes the ascendant Lord. 

Stammering, inability to speak clearly, attention deficit disorder and carelessness are completely removed by ten daily chantings of Kartikeya Stotra. This should be done in the morning sitting under a Peepal tree. Start when moon in Pushya Nakshatra and end when it enters Punarvasu Nakshatra after twenty seven days.  

Pimples, acne and loss of skin tone is speedily cured by chanting Sheetla Devi Mantra. This is easily found in book stores near temples.
 

Budh Gayatri

ॐ चन्द्रपुत्राय विद्महे रोहिणी प्रियाय धीमही तन्नो बुधः प्रचोदयात 

OM CHANDRA PUTRAYE VIDMAHE ROHINI PRIYAYE DHEEMAHI TANNO BUDHA PRACHODAYAT.

Donation
Moong Dal(Green lentils), Ghee, blue cloth and silver artifacts should be donated to people less privileged than one self. This removes all problems connected to Mercury.
 
Budh Mantra (Mercury Chant)
Chant the following Mantra 9000 times in 40 days.
OM BRAM BREEM BROM SAHA BUDHAYE NAMAH and wear the following Yantra on a gold plate.
 
Keep fast for 21 consecutive Wednesdays. Start from the first Wednesday in the waxing Moon fortnight Shukl Paksh. On the day of fasting bathe, wear green clothes and recite Vishnu Sahastranam Stotra. Chant above Mantra 108X3 times. Take only one time meal without salt. Donate Halwa made from Moong Dal. Feed greens like Palak or Sarson to a cow. Donate green fruits, and yellow-green colored clothes. On the last day of fasting perform a Havan and offer Madhu-Sarpi, yogurt, and ghee along with Havan samagri to the sacrificial fire.
