Lord Shani loves taking bath in mustard oil. Offer mustard oil to the deity and get the blessings from him. Saturday is considered to be his day, hence you can make a regular practice of visiting him every week. Chant the given mantra while offering him the mustard oil.
Shani Dev believes in karma. The malefic effects are due to the bad karmas done by us in our previous birth. In order to neutralize them, you can perform certain activities. Prefer donating Urd, oil, sesame, amethyst gemstone, black cow, buffalo, black blanket or cloth, iron to a Brahmin. For even better results you can do fasting on this day.
According to the Hindu mythology, Lord Hanuman saved Shani from the clutches of Ravana in Ramayana. Lord Shani then promised to reduce the malefic effects of Shani on individuals if they worship Lord Hanuman. Hence worshipping Lord Hanuman will help you a lot.
