As an Aries (Mesh Rashi), you are born with the fire of the universe inside you. Ruled by Mars (Mangal), you are a powerhouse of energy, ambition, and courage. You are the person who starts the fire, leads the charge, and breaks barriers. However, even the brightest flames can flicker in the wind.
Because Aries natives operate at such a high frequency, they are often susceptible to "Nazar" (Evil Eye), burnout, sudden bouts of anger, and unseen obstacles. When Mars is afflicted or when negative energy accumulates, you might feel like you are running on a treadmill—expending massive energy but going nowhere.
If you have been feeling irritable, facing sudden health issues, or encountering unexpected blocks in your career, it might be time to spiritually cleanse your aura. In Vedic Astrology, there are potent remedies specifically designed to balance the intense energy of Aries. Let’s explore how you can remove negativity and reclaim your power.
Why Aries Attracts Negative Energy
Before diving into the remedies, it is crucial to understand why you are facing these blocks. Aries is a "Movable Fire" sign. This means you are constantly in motion.
-
Envy: Your natural leadership and quick success often attract jealousy from others.
-
Mars Imbalance: An unchecked Mars can lead to internal heat—manifesting as fevers, accidents, or explosive anger that damages relationships.
-
Impulsiveness: Your speed often means you skip spiritual protection, leaving your aura open to attacks.
The goal of these remedies is not to extinguish your fire, but to control it—turning a wild forest fire into a focused laser beam.
1. The Divine Protector: Worship of Lord Hanuman
For any Aries native, Lord Hanuman is the ultimate protector. Mars (Mangal) finds its highest expression in Hanuman Ji—strength, devotion, and controlled power. Worshiping him helps channel your aggression into productivity and removes fear.
How to Perform this Remedy:
-
The Tuesday Ritual: Tuesdays are ruled by Mars. Make it a habit to visit a Hanuman temple every Tuesday. Offer "Sindoor" (vermilion) and Jasmine oil to the deity. This is known as Chola offering and is incredibly powerful for removing bad luck.
-
Hanuman Chalisa: Recite the Hanuman Chalisa daily, preferably in the morning. If you are facing severe distress or legal issues, recite the Bajrang Baan on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
-
The Benefit: This practice creates a spiritual shield (Kavach) around you, protecting you from accidents and enemies.
2. Vedic Mantras for Mars (Mangal)
Sound vibrations have the power to change your frequency. Since Aries is ruled by Mars, chanting specific mantras can pacify the malefic effects of the planet and strengthen its positive traits.
The Beej Mantra: The most effective way to connect with Mars energy is through its Beej (Seed) Mantra.
“Om Kram Kreem Kroum Sah Bhaumaya Namah”
Instruction:
-
Chant this mantra 108 times (one round of a rosary/mala) on Tuesday mornings.
-
Use a Red Sandalwood (Rakt Chandan) mala for the best results, as red sandalwood resonates with Mars energy.
-
Chanting this clarifies the mind, removes hesitation, and helps in winning over competitors.
3. Gemstone Therapy: The Red Coral (Moonga)
Gemstones are cosmic amplifiers. For Aries, the primary gemstone is the Red Coral (Moonga).
How it Helps: Red Coral balances the Mars energy. It is known to boost self-confidence, improve physical health (especially blood-related issues), and provide protection against the evil eye. It also helps in stabilizing the wandering mind of an Aries.
Wearing Guidelines:
-
Metal: Copper or Gold.
-
Finger: Ring finger of the right hand.
-
Day: Tuesday morning during the waxing moon (Shukla Paksha).
-
Activation: Before wearing, dip the ring in raw milk and Gangajal, and chant the Mars Beej mantra.
Note: Always consult a qualified astrologer before wearing a gemstone to ensure it aligns with your specific birth chart degrees.
4. Donations and Charity (Daan)
In the Vedic tradition, giving back is one of the fastest ways to clear karmic debt. For Aries, donating items related to Mars helps in pacifying aggression and accidents.
What to Donate:
-
Masoor Dal (Red Lentils): Donating red lentils to a temple or a needy person on Tuesdays is highly auspicious.
-
Sweets: Distributing "Boondi" or "Laddus" (orange/red sweets) to the poor helps in reducing conflicts.
-
Blood Donation: Since Mars rules the blood, donating blood (if you are physically able) is considered a supreme remedy for Aries. It symbolically satisfies the energy of Mars and saves lives, earning immense good karma.
5. Lifestyle Remedies: Managing the Fire Element
Sometimes, the remedy isn't a ritual but a lifestyle change. Aries natives need to physically release energy to avoid spiritual stagnation.
Physical Exertion: Negative energy in Aries often manifests as physical tension in the head and neck. You must sweat it out. High-intensity interval training, boxing, or running allows the excess Mars energy to dissipate harmlessly. If you don't move your body, that energy will turn inward and cause anxiety.
Fasting (Upvas): Fasting on Tuesdays is a traditional remedy. You can consume a meal once a day (preferably without salt) consisting of wheat and jaggery products. This cools down the system and teaches the Aries impatience the valuable lesson of discipline.
6. Color Therapy
Colors carry frequency. As an Aries, your power colors are Red, Orange, and Saffron.
-
When to wear them: Wear these colors on days when you need confidence, vitality, or are starting a new project.
-
When to avoid them: If you are feeling particularly angry, anxious, or have high blood pressure, avoid wearing too much bright red. Instead, opt for calming shades like white or light pink to balance the fire with some cooling energy.
7. Arghya to the Sun (Surya Namaskar)
The Sun is exalted in Aries. This means the Sun is happiest when it is in your sign. A strong Sun gives fame, vitality, and immunity.
The Ritual:
-
Wake up before sunrise.
-
Offer water (Arghya) to the rising sun from a Copper vessel.
-
Add a pinch of Kumkum (red powder), a red flower, and some rice grains to the water.
-
Pour the water slowly while looking at the sun through the stream of water.
-
Why it works: This aligns your soul (Sun) with your action (Mars), ensuring that your efforts lead to success rather than frustration.
Conclusion: Reclaiming Your Inner Ram
Being an Aries is a gift. You are the pioneer of the zodiac, capable of achieving greatness that others can only dream of. However, this power comes with the responsibility of maintenance. Just as a high-performance sports car needs regular tuning, your fiery energy needs regular spiritual cleansing.
By incorporating these remedies—worshiping Lord Hanuman, wearing Red Coral, or simply donating red lentils—you are not just following rituals; you are tuning your internal frequency to the cosmic rhythm.
Don't let negative energy dim your light. Perform these remedies with faith, and watch as the obstacles melt away, leaving the path clear for your next great adventure.
