Every couple dreams of hearing the laughter of a child in their home. In Hindu tradition, the Santan Prapti Puja is a sacred ceremony that invites divine blessings for healthy offspring and a blissful family life. Rooted in ancient Vedic wisdom, this powerful ritual calls upon the gods to bless couples with fertility, protect unborn children, and ensure a harmonious household.
But what makes this puja so special? How does it work? And how can you perform it even if you can’t visit a temple? Let’s explore the divine magic of Santan Prapti Puja—and how Utsav App can bring these sacred blessings to your doorstep with online puja bookings!
What is Santan Prapti Puja?
Santan Prapti Maha Puja is a holy ritual dedicated to seeking blessings for childbirth and parenthood. This puja is deeply connected to:
Lord Shiva & Goddess Parvati (the divine parents of the universe)
Lord Ganesha (remover of obstacles in childbirth)
Moon God (Chandra Dev) (governor of fertility in Vedic astrology)
The puja involves chanting sacred mantras, performing havans (fire rituals), and offering prayers to remove astrological doshas (like Pitru Dosha or Naga Dosha) that may delay childbirth.
When Should You Perform Santan Prapti Puja?
This puja is ideal for:
Couples struggling with infertility or delayed pregnancy
Those with recurrent miscarriages or child health issues
Families seeking divine protection for an unborn child
Anyone wishing to strengthen their family bond & happiness
The best time to perform it is during:
Shukla Paksha (waxing moon phase)
Mondays (Lord Shiva’s day) or Fridays (Goddess Lakshmi’s day)
Auspicious nakshatras like Rohini, Pushya, or Uttara Phalguni
Purnimas, Fridays and Navratris

Miraculous Benefits of Santan Prapti Puja
1. Removes Obstacles to Parenthood
Many couples face unexplained delays in conceiving. This puja clears karmic blockages and neutralizes negative planetary influences (like Shani or Rahu-Ketu dosha) affecting childbirth.
2. Blesses with a Healthy & Virtuous Child
The rituals invoke deities to bless the child with good health, intelligence, and a divine purpose—like the blessings given to Abhimanyu (from Mahabharata) before birth.
3. Strengthens Marital Harmony
The sacred vibrations foster love, patience, and understanding between partners, creating a nurturing environment for the child.
4. Protects from Evil Eye & Negative Energies
Special mantras create a shield around the mother and unborn child, guarding them from black magic and ill wishes.
5. Fulfills Ancestors’ Unfulfilled Wishes
If Pitru Dosha (ancestral curse) is causing delays, this puja pleases the ancestors, releasing their blessings for a new soul to enter the family.
How is Santan Prapti Puja Performed?
Step 1: Purification
The couple takes a holy bath and wears fresh yellow or white clothes (colors of purity and prosperity).
Step 2: Invocation of Deities
A priest conducts:
Ganesh Puja (to remove obstacles)
Navagraha Shanti (to balance planetary influences)
Mantra Jaap (like the Santan Gopal Mantra)
Step 3: Sacred Offerings
Milk, honey, and ghee poured into the holy fire (Yajna)
108 recitations of the Santan Prapti mantra
Offering flowers to Maa with name and gotro of the family
Step 4: Blessings & Prasad
The priest blesses the couple with sweets, mala, churni, nariyal, akshat (rice grains) and fruits, symbolizing fertility.
