Why Hanuman Ji Is Worshipped to Reduce Shani Dev’s Negative Effects?

In Vedic astrology, Shani Dev (Saturn) is considered the planet of karma, discipline, and life lessons. Phases like Shani Sade Sati and Shani Dhaiya are often linked with delays, emotional stress, financial challenges, and tests of patience. To face these difficult periods, worship of Lord Hanuman has been recommended in Hindu tradition for centuries, and this belief is strongly rooted in scripture.
