Pallippurathu Kavu Sree Nagaraja Naga Yakshi Temple, situated in Trivandrum District, is renowned as one of the most prominent Naga temples in South Kerala, devoted to the worship of snakes. This temple is distinguished for its swift responses to prayers and offerings, providing a remedy for various issues. Participating in the worship of Nagaraja and Naga Yakshi, the temple's deities, is believed to offer relief from problems, and frequent visits may bring a sense of healing to ailments. The primary deity of the temple is Vasuki, the sacred serpent associated with Lord Shiva, alongside Naga Yakshi, a favoured deity among women seeking the well-being of their families. more Both idols are revered for their size and divine presence. A unique feature of the temple is that both idols are housed and worshipped within the Sreekovil (Sanctum Sanctorum), distinguishing it from other temples where serpent deities are typically placed outside in a corner of the premises. The worship of snakes has ancient roots in India, with serpents holding significant roles in Hindu belief and mythology. In astrology, Rahu, represented by the serpent, plays a crucial role, in influencing various aspects of life. Blessings from the Naga God are believed to bring prosperity, good children, a secure job, and overall well-being. Conversely, curses or unfavourable alignments with Rahu in one's horoscope can result in health issues, financial difficulties, mental unrest, and challenges in having good children. The temple offers solutions for such problems through daily worship (Nithyapooja), providing flexibility for visitors who may miss a chance to visit on a particular day. The temple also addresses Sarpadosha (Anger of the Snake God) in one's horoscope, which can be caused by disrespect, whether intentional or unintentional. Sarpadosha may also be attributed to the disrespectful actions of forefathers. Worshipping and offering prayers at this temple are believed to relieve individuals from such curses and bring about positive changes in their lives.
