The Raaghu Sannathi (Nagaraja Shrine) is usually on the South-West direction of the second prakara. It is believed that performing abhishekam to Rahu (well known as Thirunageswaram Raghu Pooja) with milk will clear all blockages for marriage. Many people believed and it proved good results. Milk turns blue when it is flowing through Rahu and turns back to white when flowing out.
Special Pooja and Homam will be performed whenever Rahu switches from one planet to another planet. This happens once in every 18 months, during this time Rahu Idol is taken our for procession.
