ज्योतिःशास्त्रम्
धेनुः शङ्खस्तथाऽनड्वाहेम वासो हयस्तथा ।कृष्णा गौरायसश्छाग एता वै दक्षिणाः क्रमात् ॥
In the full Agni Purana this is chapter 164, verse 12.
A cow, a conch, a bull, gold, cloth, a horse, a black cow, iron and a goat: these are the gifts in order.
Simple meaning: The gifts for the planets in order are a cow, conch, bull, gold, cloth, horse, black cow, iron and goat.
यश्च यस्य यदा दूष्यः स तं यत्नेन पूजयेत् ।
If a planet troubles you, worship it with care. Worshipped planets favour the worshipper.
ग्रहाधीना नरेन्द्राणामुच्छ्रयाः पतनानि च ।
Kings rise and fall by the planets, so the planets deserve worship.
वारव्रतानि वक्ष्यामि भुक्तिमुक्तिप्रदानि हि ।
The weekday vows start here. On a Sunday in Hasta or Punarvasu, a bath with all herbs is good.
