Astrological Benefits of Hanuman Chalisa

Author: Mogana Thasan

The Shri Hanuman Chalisa is often touted as a spiritual prescription for those who suffer from unnamed fears and lack of confidence.

Shri Hanuman Chalisa is a well-known devotional hymn comprising 40 verses in praise of Lord Hanuman. Hanuman is a key character in the Ramayana epic. He belonged to the tribe of Vanaras or monkeys, and played an important role in helping Lord Rama rescue his wife, Sita, from captivity in Lanka.

Hanuman represents many sterling qualities like valor and strength. Those who wish to be like him try to please him by chanting Hanuman Stotras like Hanuman Chalisa, Hanuman Ashtothram, etc. He protects his devotees from evil spirits and negative energies. He also gives them the confidence to overcome problems and progress in life.

Hanuman Chalisa was composed by the great saint and poet Tulsidas, who is believed to be a manifestation of Saint Valmiki, who wrote the Ramayana. Tulsidas wrote the Hanuman Chalisa when he was in captivity. He was imprisoned by the Mughal emperor, Aurangzeb. He also declared that those who recited the hymn would receive many blessings from Lord Hanuman.

Astrological Benefits of Hanuman Chalisa

Astrologers claim that reciting or listening to the Hanuman Chalisa brings many benefits. Let us see what they are.

It can reduce Shani’s influence

Shani or Saturn is a dreaded entity in astrology. This slow-moving planet can bring many hardships and sufferings in a person’s life if it is not well-placed in their horoscope. Reciting Hanuman Chalisa for 40 days supposedly reduces the adverse impact of Saturn, and is an oft-prescribed astrological remedy. People who have a malefic placement of Saturn in their charts must recite the Hanuman Chalisa many times on Saturdays. This can eliminate the harmful effects of Saturn by removing obstacles and problems.

It can reduce Mars’s Influence

Like Shani, Mars or Mangal too can cause havoc in one’s life if it has a malefic placement in one’s birth chart. This causes Mangal Dosha, which gives rise to myriad problems like debts, troubled relationships, marital problems, divorce, separation, etc. In such cases, one can gain relief by reciting the Hanuman Chalisa regularly.

This can boost the positive influence of Mars. The good qualities of Mars are energy, courage, strength, and an indomitable spirit. Such traits can be imbibed by chanting the Chalisa. If you are suffering from the negative influence of the planets, you can experience many benefits by chanting the Hanuman Chalisa 8 times on Saturdays.

Others can recite the Hanuman Chalisa in the morning also at night. You need only around a few minutes to do this practice, but its benefits are many. Hanuman Chalisa recitation can also help to cleanse the body and mind. It protects one from all kinds of danger and gives one the courage to face anything in life.

The human body is made up of 60% water. Every word that we utter has its own vibration and has an effect on us at both the conscious and subconscious levels. When we repeat a Mantra or holy name, we can experience bliss due to the significant patterns of each vibration. All bad words vibrate in different ways, and so do good words. So, the vibrational patterns formed in our bodies by sacred names or Mantras are very different from those created by bad words.

It brings spiritual wisdom

Reciting the Hanuman Chalisa in the evenings creates positivity and wards off negativity. Regular practice can make a discernible difference in one’s life. It imbues us with courage, confidence, and optimism to tackle even the toughest challenges that life throws at us.

For those who seek enlightenment, reading Hanuman Chalisa is a good way to acquire spiritual knowledge and wisdom. It will remove bad influences in your life that causes distractions. It removes disagreements and creates happiness and unity. Unnecessary arguments and strife can give way to peace and harmony.
