What is Gand Mool Shanti Puja?
In Jyotish tradition, six nakshatras at the junctions of water and fire signs are known as Gand Mool nakshatras: Ashwini, Ashlesha, Magha, Jyeshtha, Moola and Revati. When a child is born in one of these, many families perform a Gand Mool Shanti Puja.
The puja is usually done when the same nakshatra returns, about 27 days after birth. It includes Ganesh puja, worship of the nakshatra devata, Navagraha puja, mantra jaap for the relevant nakshatra and a havan, often with the family and the baby present for part of the ritual.
If the shanti could not be done at that time, families often perform it later on a suitable muhurat. The Pandit will look at the birth details and advise on timing and vidhi.
Significance
Gand Mool shanti is a long standing family custom in many North Indian households. It is seen as a way of welcoming the child with prayers for a smooth and protected life.
The ritual focuses on prayer and blessings rather than fear. A Pandit can explain what the nakshatra means for your family's tradition and whether a shanti is customary.
ब्रह्मा मुरारिस्त्रिपुरान्तकारी भानुः शशी भूमिसुतो बुधश्च।
गुरुश्च शुक्रः शनिराहुकेतवः सर्वे ग्रहाः शान्तिकरा भवन्तु॥
