Hasta is the nakshatra of the hand — the palm held open, the fingers that shape, count, heal and give. Its presiding deity is Savitr, the impelling Sun, the one who sets things in motion at dawn. The Hasta Nakshatra Homa is the fire rite offered to that star and that deity, performed for a devotee born under Hasta or passing through its dasha or transit periods.
In the tradition, your janma nakshatra is not merely a label on a horoscope. It is the doorway through which your prarabdha reaches you. When that doorway is honoured with fire, mantra and offering — on the day the Moon returns to Hasta, or on your birth-star day each month — the classical texts prescribe it for protection, for clarity of purpose, and for the steadying of livelihood. Our priests perform the hasta nakshatra homam on your behalf at the Yagna Ashram and telecast it to you, wherever you are.
ॐ सवित्रे नमः । तत्सवितुर्वरेण्यं भर्गो देवस्य धीमहि । धियो यो नः प्रचोदयात् ॥ We meditate upon the radiant glory of Savitr, the divine impeller; may he set our thoughts and our work in right motion.
Why Devotees Book This
Devotees turn to the Hasta Nakshatra Homa when they wish to align with their birth star and ask Savitr for protection and steady prosperity.
Birth-star alignment
Offered for those born under Hasta, to honour the janma nakshatra and settle the influences it carries through a lifetime.
Protection through Hasta periods
Traditionally prescribed when the Moon, a dasha or a difficult transit moves through Hasta, and you want the fire to stand between you and the turbulence.
Skill and livelihood
Hasta rules the hand and its crafts. Artisans, surgeons, writers, cooks, traders and healers offer this homa for steadiness in the work their hands do.
Clarity and right effort
Savitr is the impeller of thought. The rite is offered for focus, for decisive action, and for effort that does not scatter.
Prosperity that holds
The open palm of Hasta is the palm that receives and the palm that gives. Devotees offer this homa for sustained wealth rather than sudden gain.
For children of Hasta
Parents book the homa for a child born in Hasta — as a blessing at naming, at Aksharabhyasa, or on each returning birth-star day.

What you receive
The sealing of the yantra
When your homa concludes, the yantra that stood in the fire is rolled and locked inside its silver amulet according to Agama vidhi — the practice by which the energies raised in a ritual are held within a consecrated object rather than dispersing. It is why a homa performed at our ashram can still reach a devotee ten thousand miles away: what the fire raised travels to you, sealed.
Personal sankalpa
Your name, gotra & nakshatra — for you and up to five family members.
Live telecast
Watch your own homa in real time from the ashram. Streamed openly on our YouTube channel by default — or request a private, unlisted telecast at checkout.
Free energised Savitr Yantra, sealed in a silver amulet
Consecrated over three days — Jala (holy-water consecration with mantras), Prana (life force through pranayama & chants) and Jeeva Pratishta (awakened with 108 recitations & offerings) — then present through your homa, receiving the energies raised in the fire. Immediately afterwards it is rolled and sealed inside a silver amulet by Agamic rite, locking those energies within, and shipped to you with your prasadam.
Prasadam, shipped free
Sacred vibhuti, sandalwood powder & kumkum from your fire — delivered to any country.
48-Day Anushthan (optional)
Daily temple worship for 48 days — the 27 Nakshatras + 12 Rashis + 9 Planets — then sealed in a silver amulet of approximately 2–4 inches.
A note on sacred tradition
As per strict Agama vidhi, no videography is permitted inside the temple sanctum — this preserves the pure sacred energies and undisturbed divine focus of the ritual. The main homa is respectfully telecast live from outside the sanctum; the daily rituals of the 48-day Anushthan are performed with full devotion but are not telecast.
Homas are telecast openly on our YouTube channel so that devotees everywhere may witness the rituals — and because we believe you should be able to see our work before you trust us with yours. Your sankalpa names you and your family, so if you would rather your ceremony were not public, choose the private telecast option at checkout and it is streamed as an unlisted link visible only to you.
We state this plainly — transparency about what tradition forbids filming, and about what is public, is part of performing these rituals honestly.

Who is invoked
Savitr — the goddess of knowledge itself
Savitr is one of the Tridevi and the mother of the Vedas — the presiding deity of knowledge, learning, memory, speech, music and every art. She is depicted in white upon a white lotus, holding the veena, a book, a rosary and a water pot, with the swan of discernment beside her.
In this homa, her grace — Savitr Kataksham — is invoked through fire with your own name and birth details spoken in the sankalpa.

Yes. Hasta is a benevolent nakshatra, classed as light and swift, and favoured in the tradition for skill, healing, craftsmanship, trade and quick intelligence. No nakshatra is unlucky — each carries its own strengths and its own tests. Hasta natives are known for dexterity and resourcefulness; the homa is offered to strengthen those gifts and to steady the periods when the star's influence feels strained.
Hasta is the thirteenth nakshatra, spanning 10°00' to 23°20' of Kanya (Virgo). Its symbol is the open hand or palm, its presiding deity is Savitr — the impelling Sun of dawn — and its ruling planet is Chandra, the Moon. Its five stars form the shape of a hand in the sky. Hasta governs skill, craft, healing, precision work and the ability to hold what one has earned.
The Hasta Nakshatra Homa is a Vedic fire ritual dedicated to Hasta and its deity Savitr. Offerings are made into the consecrated fire with the nakshatra's own mantras while the devotee's name, gotra and birth star are invoked. Its significance lies in aligning you with your janma nakshatra — the tradition prescribes it for protection, for clarity of purpose, and for the steady prosperity that comes of skilled, sustained effort.
The tradition prescribes the hasta nakshatra homam for birth-star alignment, protection during Hasta-related dashas and transits, steadiness in work that depends on skill and the hands, clarity of thought under Savitr's impelling grace, and sustained prosperity. It is also offered as a blessing for children born under Hasta. The rite is an offering, not a guarantee; devotees perform it as an act of faith and sankalpa.
Anyone born under Hasta nakshatra, or with the Moon, Lagna or a significant planet placed there. It is also offered by those running a Chandra dasha or bhukti connected to Hasta, by parents on behalf of a Hasta-born child, and by those in hand-skilled professions — surgeons, artisans, musicians, cooks, therapists, traders. You do not perform it yourself; our qualified priests perform it on your behalf at the Yagna Ashram.
The day the Moon transits Hasta is the most fitting, and it recurs each lunar month. The dawn hours are preferred, since Savitr is the deity of the rising light. Many devotees fix it on their own birth-star day, before a new venture, or annually near their birthday. Share your birth details when you book and our panchanga desk will fix and confirm the muhurat.
The priests begin with achamana, Ganapati puja and punyahavachanam, then take the sankalpa in your name, gotra and nakshatra. The kalasha is established, Savitr and the Hasta devata are invoked, and Agni is kindled in the kunda. Ahutis of ghee, samidha, havis, grains, sesame and the nakshatra's prescribed vanaspati are offered with the Hasta and Savitr mantras. The rite closes with purnahuti, arati, prarthana and the blessing of prasadam and the yantra.
Book online from any country on this page. Give your name, gotra and birth star, and choose your preferred date. Our priests perform the homa at our Yagna Ashram in Coimbatore on your behalf and telecast it live to you, so you can sit with the fire wherever you are. Prasadam and an energised yantra are couriered to your address worldwide, free of charge.
