The Pratyangira Devi Homa is a Maha-tier fire rite offered to Atharvana Bhadrakali Pratyangira, the lion-faced form of the Mother who is invoked when a household feels besieged by what it cannot see. The tradition prescribes it for the pressure of the evil eye, for abhichara and black magic worked with ill intent, for psychic disturbance, and for hostility that follows a family without explanation. Her name means she who turns back — the force sent out is returned to its source, and the devotee is left covered.
Because this is a Maha homa, the fire is raised with fuller sankalpa, longer mantra japa and a wider offering than an ordinary archana. Our priests perform it at AstroBhava's own Yagna Ashram in Coimbatore, in your name and your gotra, while you watch the live telecast from wherever you are. Nothing is asked of you but your name, your star and your intention. The vibhuti, kumkum and the energised yantra from the altar are couriered to your door.
ॐ ह्रीं क्षौं प्रत्यङ्गिरे नरसिंहि आत्मरक्षां कुरु कुरु स्वाहा Om, Pratyangira, lion-faced Mother, protect me — turn back all harm sent against me; this offering is yours.
Why Devotees Book This
Devotees turn to the Pratyangira Devi Homa when protection is the whole of the prayer. These are the intentions the tradition assigns to the rite.
Shield against the evil eye
Offered when drishti or envious attention seems to be shadowing a home, a child or a new venture.
Reversal of abhichara
The classical purpose of Pratyangira worship — to send back hostile mantra, black magic and deliberate ill-working to where it began.
Relief from psychic disturbance
Sought by those who feel watched, drained or unsettled at night without cause they can name.
A guarded household
The rite is done for the protection of the whole family, the dwelling and its threshold, not the individual alone.
Steadiness against hostility
Prescribed where opposition, litigation or persistent enmity presses on a person's work and peace.
Purification of the space
The fire, the mantra and the energised yantra are traditionally used to clear the atmosphere of a home or workplace.
Brahmashree ShivaayaGuru, Head of Astrological & Spiritual Solutions
Who performs your homa
Under the guidance of Brahmashree Shivaaya
Every priest who performs your Pratyangira Devi Homa is trained in a traditional Padashala and personally recruited by Brahmashree Shivaaya — Guru and Head of Astrological & Spiritual Solutions at AstroBhava. Your ritual is conducted at our own Yagna Ashram — never a rented venue — with temple rites performed across our seven temples in Tamil Nadu and Kerala.
Not every fire ritual is performed at the same scale. A Maha Homa is our largest form — more priests, a longer fire, and the complete chanting sequence the rite prescribes rather than an abridged one. This is what that means in practice.

TelecastEvery minuteNothing is performed off camera
A Maha Homa is performed for one devotee and their named family, the same as any homa we conduct. What the scale changes is the weight of the offering — ten trained voices holding one hymn for two hours is a different undertaking from one voice for an hour, and it is reserved for the intentions that warrant it.

Both packages are the same rite. The complete Pratyangira Devim, all thirty-one verses, over approximately two hours, with the same offerings, the same free energised Surya Yantra sealed in its silver amulet, and the same live telecast. What changes is how many trained voices carry the hymn at once.

Sacred Timing
Pratyangira is a night deity. Her homa is traditionally raised in the darker half of the month and in the hours after dusk. Our panchanga team fixes the muhurat for your booking.
Amavasya and Krishna Paksha nights
The new moon and the waning fortnight are the classical window for Pratyangira upasana, especially the pradosha and midnight hours.
Ashlesha and Bharani nakshatra
These stars are held favourable for the fierce protective forms of the Mother and are often chosen for this homa.
Tuesdays and Fridays
Mangalavara and Shukravara are the weekdays associated with Shakti worship for protection and turning back harm.
Rahu Kala on a Tuesday
Some lineages offer Pratyangira specifically in this period; where your chart supports it, the priests will schedule accordingly.
Every package, and the 48-day option
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 Pratyangira Devi 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
Pratyangira Devi — the goddess of knowledge itself
Pratyangira Devi 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 — Pratyangira Devi Kataksham — is invoked through fire with your own name and birth details spoken in the sankalpa.

A full Pratyangira homam is not usually done at home. It is a fierce, Maha-tier rite with a fixed kunda, precise mantra count and strict ritual discipline, and the tradition asks that it be performed by initiated priests in a consecrated yagna space. You can certainly keep a simple lamp and prayer at home. The homa itself we perform for you at our Yagna Ashram and telecast live, so you take part without needing to raise the fire yourself.
The Pratyangira Devi homam is a Vedic fire ritual offered to Pratyangira Devi, the lion-faced protective form of the Divine Mother. Ghee, herbs and specified offerings are given into the fire while her mantra is chanted, with a sankalpa taken in the devotee's name. It is prescribed for protection from negative energy, evil eye, black magic and psychic harm.
Yes. Daily prayer to Pratyangira Devi at home is welcome and needs nothing elaborate — a lamp, a clean space, her image or yantra, and her mantra chanted with a steady mind, preferably in the evening. What tradition reserves for trained priests is the homa, with its fire, its samagri and its mantra discipline.
Pratyangira homam is the same rite, named for the deity alone. It is the fire worship of Pratyangira — she whose name means the one who turns back — performed to return hostile forces to their origin and to place the devotee and the household under her protection.
Pratyangira Devi is the Mother in her lion-faced, night-dark form, worshipped as Atharvana Bhadrakali. The Puranas describe her as arising to absorb the fury of Sharabha and Narasimha, and she is invoked in the Atharvanic tradition as the guardian who neutralises abhichara. She is fierce to what threatens her devotee and utterly gentle to the devotee.
Keep it simple and sincere. Bathe, light a ghee lamp in a clean corner facing east or north, place her image or yantra, offer red flowers, kumkum and a fruit, and chant her mantra a fixed number of rounds — the same count each day. Evenings are preferred. Do not attempt homa, tantric prayoga or fire offerings at home; leave those to the priests.
It is a Maha homa in AstroBhava's Protection and Negative Energy category, offered to Pratyangira Devi for relief from unseen harm. Its significance lies in her nature as the reverser: what has been sent is turned back, and the devotee is covered. Families book it when they feel the effects of the evil eye, of black magic, or of sustained hostility they cannot trace.
The Pratyangira Devi homam benefits described in tradition are protection from drishti and evil eye, the turning back of abhichara and black magic, relief from psychic disturbance and unrest, a guarded home and family, steadiness in the face of enmity, and purification of the living or working space. The rite is offered as prayer; outcomes rest with the Mother.
It is booked by anyone who senses negative energy around their home, health, work or children, by those facing persistent unexplained obstruction or hostility, and by families advised by an astrologer to seek protective remedy. The homa itself is performed only by qualified priests trained in her upasana — never by the devotee.
Amavasya and the Krishna Paksha nights are the classical window, with Ashlesha and Bharani nakshatra, and Tuesdays and Fridays, held favourable. Evening and night hours are preferred over daylight. When you book, our panchanga team fixes the muhurat against your nakshatra and confirms the date and time with you in advance.
The pratyangira devi homam procedure runs in order: purification of the space and the priests, Ganapati puja and punyahavachanam, sankalpa in your name, gotra and nakshatra, kalasha sthapana and invocation of Pratyangira into the yantra, her mantra japa to the prescribed count, then the homa proper — offerings of ghee, red flowers, dry coconut, black sesame, mustard, specified herbal samagri and dravya into the fire with each ahuti. It closes with purnahuti, deeparadhana, rakshabandhana and prayers for your family. The energised yantra and prasadam are then packed and couriered to you.
Choose the homa on this page, share your name, gotra if known, and birth star, and complete the booking online from any country. We confirm the muhurat, send you the live telecast link so you can watch the fire raised in your name, and courier the prasadam and the energised yantra to your address worldwide at no extra cost.
