The embodiment of time, karma, and justice in Hindu astrology
Shani is one of the nine primary celestial beings in Hindu astrology, known as the Navagraha, and is revered as the god of time, karma, and justice. He is often depicted as a dark-complexioned man with a bow and arrow, riding a vulture or a crow, and is associated with the planet Saturn. According to Hindu mythology, Shani is the son of Surya, the sun god, and is known for his slow and deliberate movements, which are said to influence the course of human life. His powers are believed to bring about both good and bad fortune, depending on an individual's past deeds, and he is often worshiped to mitigate the negative effects of his influence.
