Boat nail & black horse shoe Both these remedies are folk remedies and have been

done for centuries to nullify the malefic effect of saturn specially during its Sade satee [ 7 and half years ] Neither of the two find a mention in the Lal Kitab. But that does not mean they do not have any astrological logic behind them. As we believe that most of the folk remedies have some astrological meaning and purpose behind them, so do have these two remedies. We believe that these two remedies are to cool down the saturn so that the native is saved from the wrath of the saturn. Let us examine the two remedies : Nail [ saturn ] of the boat which had been immersed in the water [moon ] for years represents a cooled Saturn and wearing a chhalla made of that nail would mean establishing on your person a cooled saturn to counteract the malefic saturn. Black [ saturn ] horse [ moon ] shoe[ saturn], once again an item of saturn which has been in the association of moon [ horse ] for all these months would be taken as a cooled saturn. establishing a chhalla of such a shoe would nullify the maleficity of saturn by cooling it.
