I invite you to visit the newest Sacred Images gallery of planetary yantra. Here you will find yantra representing Sun, Moon, Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, Venus and Mercury.

Plans are to expand the planetary selection with Ketu and Rahu, along with adding additional interpretations of the various planets. A planetary yantra, used alone or in conjunction with specific corresponding individual planetary mantra, can be effectively used as a propitiatory device to either enhance beneficial possibilities, or to aid in circumventing less favorable tendencies according to oneʼs individual Vedic astrological chart.

These yantra can be ordered as prints in the standard sizes offered by Sacred Images. If the size desired is not met by the sizes listed, please feel free to contact me at: pennylea@sacredimagespublishing.com, so that the appropriate size can be ordered on an individual basis.

To learn more about Vedic astrology, or to determine which planetary yantra is most appropriate for you, please visit the website of the Northwest Institute of Vedic Sciences.

New also you will find additional images available in both the original Yantra and Sacred Images Collection galleries.

A Yantra is a geometric composition that reveals a particular energy configuration whose power increases in exact proportion to the abstraction and precision of the diagram. Used together with mantra, or seed sound syllables, each Yantra displays the patterns of force heard in the mantra.

         

The discipline of Yantra has its roots in the ancient vedic traditions of southeast Asia, or present day India. A Mandala is a structural matrix, through and from which flow a succession of changes. It consists of a series of concentric forms representing a passage, or a portal to the Self. The mandala form exists in the visual healing traditions of the majority of indigenous cultures globally.

         

Following the patterns within a Yantra or Mandala while moving towards the center-point, enlivens in our consciousness corresponding experiences, feelings and recognitions of harmony with the eternal rhythms of nature and the cosmos.

The Yantric images presented here were created following the rules and precepts consistent with this ancient discipline.
