International Yoga Day 2026 6 Best Yogic Kriyas To Ground Intense Mars Jupiter Transit Energy On June 21

. While this kind of energy can be exciting, it can also make you rush decisions, take on too much, or react before thinking things through.

Astrologically, the combined influence of Mars and Jupiter can create exactly that kind of atmosphere. Mars encourages action, ambition, and courage, while Jupiter expands everything it touches, including thoughts, emotions, and expectations. Together, they can inspire growth and confidence, but they can also leave you feeling overstimulated if that energy is not directed wisely.

This is where yogic practices can help. Ancient yogic traditions have long emphasised the importance of grounding yourself before taking action. When your breath slows, your body relaxes, and your mind becomes calmer, it becomes easier to move forward with clarity instead of impulse. According to astrologer Sidhharrth S Kumaar of NumroVani, these six yogic kriyas may help you stay balanced and centred on June 21.

Prithvi Vardhak Kriya is traditionally practiced to strengthen the earth element within you, helping create a sense of stability and emotional balance. If you find yourself feeling overly excited, restless, or mentally scattered, this practice may help you feel more rooted and steady. Even a few mindful minutes can leave you feeling calmer and more centred.

Mars is often associated with heat, drive, and intensity. Sitali Kriya offers a gentle way to cool that energy. This breathing practice is known for calming the nervous system. It may help reduce restlessness, ease mental tension, and bring a greater sense of relaxation. Practising it before an important conversation, meeting, or decision can help you approach situations with a clearer mind.

Not all energy needs to move upward. Sometimes, balance comes from bringing energy back down and staying grounded. Apana Mudra, combined with slow, conscious breathing, is believed to support release and stability. It can be especially helpful when you feel mentally overwhelmed or emotionally charged. Instead of holding onto every thought or feeling, this practice encourages you to let go of what no longer serves you.

When life seems to be pulling you in different directions, balance becomes more important than speed. Nadi Shodhana is a simple yet powerful practice that helps create harmony within the body and mind. Also known as alternate nostril breathing, it is traditionally used to balance energy channels and improve focus.

Sometimes, the mind becomes so busy that even small thoughts start to feel overwhelming. Bhramari Pranayama, often called the humming bee breath, uses a gentle humming sound to calm mental chatter and draw your attention inward. Many people find that after a few rounds, their mind feels quieter and less reactive. It creates space between your thoughts and your responses, allowing you to act with greater awareness.

Some of the most powerful yogic practices involve doing less, not more. Sitting quietly in Vajrasana while practising Gyan Mudra for five to ten minutes can create a deep sense of stillness and clarity. This simple combination encourages self-awareness and mindful observation. Mars brings courage, Jupiter brings wisdom, and stillness helps you use both in a balanced way.

When powerful planetary energies are active, it can be tempting to keep moving, planning, and doing. Sometimes, however, the wisest thing you can do is pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself before taking the next step.
