Charms, Remedies And Good Conduct

The evil effects of planets can (or cannot) be diminished in some cases. (1) If a planet placed in a particular house gives the effect of that house, then there is the possibility of reducing its evil effect. (11) If that very planet gives its own malign effects, then any remedy is riot possible. There are three kinds of remedies suggested for the first kind which would diminish the evil effect. (a) Charms They give instant relief Just like an injection. (b) Precautions They give long term relief like effective medicine. (c) Good Conduct It gives life long effect. For instance. if Mercury is affected by Moon in a horoscope then the person is likely to suffer from diseases related to lungs. The mother shall often remain ill. Three forms of cures and precautions are suggested in this case. (a) Keep a pot filled with water at bedside. Pour out the water on the roots of a Keekar plant in the morning; this shall give instant relief (b) Give green coloured clothes to unmarried girls as gifts. Avoid drinking milk before retiring to bed. It has a long term effect. (c) Worship the family deity. Follow a good conduct by touching the feet of the elders in salutation thereby seeking their blessings. This shall eventually have a permanent effect. The person shall get rid of the evil effect of the planet for ever.

In case of a weak or afflicted Mercury , it may help to drop green things or a copper coin with a hole in running water. Fasting on Wednesdays is also recommended. Giving bangles and clothes of green colour to eunuchs is also said to propitiate Mercury.
