Budha, the celestial deity of the planet Mercury, is honored in Vedic astrology as the lord of intellect, communication, and logic. As the son of Chandra (Moon) and Tārā, Budha is associated with learning, speech, analytical thinking, business acumen, and quick wit. He governs over Wednesday and is especially important for those seeking clarity in thought, effective expression, and success in education or commerce.
The 108 names of Budha (Budha Aṣṭottaraśatanāmāvaliḥ) glorify his divine qualities, planetary influence, and spiritual attributes. Chanting or meditating upon these names helps to pacify negative effects of Mercury in the horoscope and enhances memory, speech, negotiation skills, and mental clarity.
Whether you are a student, a speaker, an entrepreneur, or a seeker of astrological harmony, these 108 sacred names offer a powerful way to align with Budha’s wisdom, eloquence, and sharp intellect.
