When is Janmashtami Puja?

Janmashtami Puja – 16 August, 2025

The Deep Link with Number 8

In numerology, Saturn connects with the number 8. Lord Krishna also has a special bond with the number 8. People believe Krishna is the eighth incarnation of Lord Vishnu. He was also born as the eighth son of Mother Devaki. He took birth on the eighth day (Ashtami) of the dark fortnight in the month of Bhadrapada. After seven parts of the day passed, Lord Krishna was born in the eighth part. The number 8 stayed with Him throughout His life. That’s why people believe Saturn becomes happy through Krishna’s worship and doesn’t trouble His devotees.

Janmashtami Puja – Shani Maharaj’s Kokiladev Temple

People believe Saturn is a devoted follower of Lord Krishna. To get Krishna’s darshan, Saturn did deep penance. At a place called Kokilavan, 60 km from Mathura, Lord Krishna appeared before Saturn in the form of a cuckoo bird. Even today, a fair takes place here every Saturday. People walk around the temple on foot for about 3 to 4 kilometers. Around 400 years ago, the King of Bharatpur rebuilt this temple. Garuda Purana and Narada Purana also mention this temple. After visiting Mathura, visiting this temple is believed to end all of Saturn’s problems.

Krishna’s Blessings Remove Planet Troubles

Along with Saturn, even good planets like Jupiter and Mercury, and tough ones like Rahu and Ketu start giving good results. During Jupiter’s period, if someone worships Krishna in His Vishnu form and chants Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya, they see great results. Lord Vishnu once took the Mohini form and cut a demon’s throat with His chakra. The demon’s head became Rahu and the body became Ketu. Krishna’s worship and mantra chanting also bring peace from Rahu and Ketu.
