The Origin of the Navagraha Temples

The Navagraha temples in Tamil Nadu are a cluster of nine Hindu temples, each dedicated to one of the nine celestial deities (Navagrahas). The Navagraha deities are: Surya (Sun), Chandra (Moon), Angaraka (Mars), Budha (Mercury), Guru (Jupiter), Shukra (Venus), Shani (Saturn), Rahu, and Ketu. Each temple is associated with one of these celestial bodies and is believed to hold immense astrological power. Visiting all nine temples, performing specific rituals, and offering prayers is said to remove negative planetary influences as per the astrological chart, improve health and prosperity, and promote spiritual growth.
