Also spelled Saptamatrika Homam
सप्तमातृका होमSeven Mothers stand around the fire, one at every direction, and the ash they leave is asked to guard your home and your name.
The Saptamatrika Homa is offered to the seven Mother energies — Brahmani, Maheshwari, Kaumari, Vaishnavi, Varahi, Indrani and Chamunda — who, in the Puranas, emerged from the great gods to encircle the battlefield when a single form was not enough. Each Mother carries the weapon and the vahana of the deity she springs from. Together they form a closed ring. That ring is what this rite asks for: a boundary drawn in fire around a person, a household, a lineage.
Tradition turns to the Saptamatrika pooja when the trouble has no visible cause. Sleep that will not come. A house where quarrels start over nothing. A child who fades after being admired too loudly. Work that unravels at the last step, again and again. In such seasons the Matrikas are invoked as fierce guardians rather than as distant goddesses — mothers who do not negotiate with what threatens their children. As a Maha homa, the Saptamatrika puja carries an extended japa count and separate offerings for each of the Seven, which is why the rite is set aside for concerns of weight.
ब्राह्मी माहेश्वरी चैव कौमारी वैष्णवी तथा। वाराही च तथेन्द्राणी चामुण्डा सप्तमातरः॥ Brahmani, Maheshwari, Kaumari, Vaishnavi, Varahi, Indrani and Chamunda — these are the Seven Mothers, and we bow to them as our guardians.The Saptamatrika homa is prescribed in the tradition for these concerns. What follows is what the rite is offered for, in the words of those who keep it.
The Seven are invoked at the seven directions of the kunda, so the household is placed inside a guarded circle rather than left in the open.
Offered when a person, a child or a new venture seems to falter after drawing attention — the classic reading of evil eye in our households.
Chamunda and Varahi are invoked specifically as the Mothers who face black magic, prayoga and deliberate ill-will directed at a family.
Sought when sleep is broken, when dread arrives without reason, and when the mind will not settle — the traditional signs of psychic disturbance.
Offered for houses where friction keeps returning, where guests feel uneasy, or where a new property is being entered for the first time.
The Matrikas are also honoured as protectors of children and continuity, which is why families book this Saptamatrika puja on behalf of the whole household, not one person.
Every priest who performs your Saptamatrika 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.
Meet our priests →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.
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 Saptamatrikam, 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.

You book — and send birth details at checkout.
Within 24–48 working hours — your muhurta is confirmed by email.
The day before — your telecast link arrives by email.
After the homa — tracking email with your personal time to wear the yantra.
Our priests fix the muhurat for your Saptamatrika homa after reading your birth details. These are the windows the tradition favours.
The eighth and ninth lunar days belong to the Mother forms. Krishna Paksha Ashtami is especially held for rites of protection.
Both Sharada and Vasanta Navaratri carry the strongest current for Matrika worship, and the Ashtami of Navaratri is the most sought date of the year.
Mangalvara suits the fierce aspect of the Mothers; Shukravara suits their nurturing aspect. Many devotees choose one or the other by the nature of their concern.
These stars are associated with the Matrika energies and are chosen when the concern is longstanding rather than recent.
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.
Your name, gotra & nakshatra — for you and up to five family members.
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.
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.
Sacred vibhuti, sandalwood powder & kumkum from your fire — delivered to any country.
Daily temple worship for 48 days — the 27 Nakshatras + 12 Rashis + 9 Planets — then sealed in a silver amulet of approximately 2–4 inches.
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.
The energised yantra is carefully rolled and sealed inside a sacred silver amulet before shipping. Wearing it is itself a small ritual — and even its timing is set for you personally.
Our astrologer marks the auspicious date and time to wear the yantra according to your birth details — sent to you in the email carrying your shipment's tracking number.
Dip the silver amulet in raw milk or Ganga jal for an hour before wearing, then clean with normal water.
Perform the wearing process facing east or north for maximum benefit.
Show lamp and incense to the amulet before wearing it.
Around your neck or waist, on a thread or chain.
Repeated offering of dheep and dhoop keeps the energisation alive.
Place the amulet at your puja altar, or keep it in your wallet.
The priest states your name, gotra and nakshatra — and those of up to five family members — with the intention this homa is performed for.
The customary invocation to Ganapati, clearing obstacles before the goddess is approached.
The fire is consecrated in the homa kunda and Agni invoked as the carrier of every offering that follows.
The Saptamatrika Sukta and Saptamatrika Gayatri are chanted, inviting the goddess's presence into the fire — by one, three or five priests as your package sets.
Ghee, white flowers, akshata and honey are offered in sequence with mantra — the offerings traditional to her worship.
The final complete offering seals the sankalpa stated at the opening.
Aarti is performed live on your telecast. Vibhuti, sandalwood powder, kumkum and your energised yantra are then packed and shipped free to your door.
Saptamatrika 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 — Saptamatrika Kataksham — is invoked through fire with your own name and birth details spoken in the sankalpa.
