Mothers observe the Jitiya (Jivitputrika) fast for the longevity, protection, and prosperity of their children. Worshipping Lord Jimutvahana holds special significance during this sacred fast. If mothers observing the fast perform specific remedies and acts of charity in their child's name on this day, the benefits are multiplied manifold.

Through these simple astrological remedies, various issues—whether related to the child's health, the evil eye (*Nazar Dosh*), or obstacles in education—can be effectively resolved.

According to astrologer Chandresh Sharma of Astropatri, on the day of the Jitiya (Jivitputrika) fast, performing specific acts of charity and worship—aligned with the child's Moon sign or name sign—alongside listening to the legend of Lord Jimutvahana and the Kite and Jackal (*Cheel-Siyari*), helps eliminate all misfortunes, health-related hurdles, and educational obstacles facing the child.

**Specific remedies for mothers based on the child's zodiac sign:**

**Aries (Mesh):** If the child belongs to the Aries sign, the mother should offer red flowers and jaggery to Lord Jimutvahana during the Jitiya worship. After the ritual, wave the jaggery over the child's head seven times and feed it to a cow.

**Taurus (Vrishabh):** For the child's excellent health and longevity, offer *Mishri* (rock sugar) and white sweets as *Bhog* (sacred offering) and donate them to a young girl after the worship.

**Gemini (Mithun):** To enhance the child's concentration and intellectual growth, offer 21 pairs of *Durva* grass to Lord Jimutvahana and have the child donate green fodder.

**Cancer (Kark):** If the child is emotionally sensitive or frequently unwell, donate raw milk and rice on the day of Jitiya. Have the child wear a small square piece of silver or a silver coin.

**Leo (Simha):** For the child's success and protection, donate wheat and a copper vessel at a temple. Apply a *tilak* of red sandalwood paste to Lord Jimutvahana. Virgo: To remove obstacles regarding your child's education and career, offer whole green gram (moong dal) and green cardamom during the Jitiya worship.

Libra: To protect your child from the evil eye or frequent accidents, offer white clothing or *kheer* (sweet rice pudding) during the ritual and distribute it among young girls.

Scorpio: For your child's excellent health, place honey and a red sacred thread (*kalava*) at the feet of Lord Jimutvahana; later, tie this thread around your child's right wrist.

Sagittarius: For your child's holistic development, tie split Bengal gram (*chana dal*) and a turmeric root in a yellow cloth, place it at the place of worship, and later donate it to a Brahmin.

Capricorn: To keep your child free from chronic ailments or obstacles, light a lamp using sesame and mustard oil on the day of Jitiya and donate black sesame seeds.

Aquarius: For stability and longevity in your child's life, donate *Saptadhanya* (seven types of grains) and light a mustard oil lamp beneath a Peepal tree.
