Different animals in Hinduism are the vahana of different gods.

 Harming or hurting animals, therefore, displeases gods and planets and the results are very bad. 

Feeding animals astrology is a very vast branch and this is the branch that we are going to explore in this guide.

Animals Vahanas of Different Gods

1. Rat is the vahana is lord Ganesha.
2. Dogs represent Shani Dev, Rahu, and Ketu.

Needless to say, if these or any other innocent animals are harmed, Gods and Planets punish the guilty.

Having said that, feeding animal astrology that has been listed in this guide will take you through the different ways in which you can feed these animals to please the Planets and Gods. Let’s get started without any further ado.

1. Feeding Rats
   

People, at times, do end up associating rats as the bringers of ill-health. However, it’s not true. Seeing a rat is actually a good omen. In fact, a temple of Karni Mata in the interiors of Bikaner, Rajasthan is known to have rats on the premises of the temple. These rats are worshipped with full dedication.

Here’s what people usually feed them.

1. Modak, since modak is considered to be the favorite food of lord Ganesha.
2. Sweets of all kinds.
3. Mustard, barley, and coconut.

2. Feeding Birds

Like we already mentioned that birds like peacocks, crows, and swans are vahanas of Planets, Gods and Goddesses. Similarly, many other birds are either associated with the Shadow Planet or Planets like the Sun and Moon. So, instead of feeding only some specific types of birds, astrology insists on feeding all birds.

Here’s what you can feed them.

1. Keep a bowl of water in the open.
2. Offering millets to pigeons can please the Planet Mercury.
3. Feeding Lentils is known to please Planet Jupiter.

And like we said, do not differentiate between birds. Whilst some birds do please some planets, but feeding all birds daily actually adds to good karma.

3. Feeding Dogs

Dogs, no matter the color, represent the most feared planets – Saturn (Shani) and the Shadow Planet (Rahu and Ketu).

Saturn is the planet of fury and the shadow planet is the planet of karma and justice. Needless to say, pleasing them will make you fearless, wealthy and influential, and will also cut down the ill-effects of bad karma. In order to appease these planets, you must feed dogs.

Here’s what you can feed them.

1. Buttered or oiled chapatis.
2. Buttered bread.
3. Milk.

There are some precautions too.

1. If you keep a dog as a pet, never leave it.
2. Mistreating a pet dog and not taking care of it displeases Shani dev and leads to Graha dosha.

Remember, happy dogs bring blessings and protect a house from evil spirits and bad luck.
