Shiva Purana — Vayaviya Samhita, Shloka 67
मन्त्रसिद्ध्यर्थं गुरुपूजा–आज्ञा–पौरश्चर्यविधिः / Guru-Authorization, Offerings, and Puraścaraṇa for Mantra-Siddhi
न लग्नतिथिनक्षत्रवारयोगादयः प्रिये । अस्यात्यंतमवेक्ष्याः स्युर्नैष सप्तस्सदोदितः । न कदाचिन्न कस्यापि रिपुरेष महामनुः । सुसिद्धो वापि सिद्धो वा साध्यो वापि भविष्यति
na lagnatithinakṣatravārayogādayaḥ priye | asyātyaṃtamavekṣyāḥ syurnaiṣa saptassadoditaḥ | na kadācinna kasyāpi ripureṣa mahāmanuḥ | susiddho vāpi siddho vā sādhyo vāpi bhaviṣyati
يا حبيبة، لا حاجة في هذا الأمر إلى التدقيق في الطالع، واليوم القمري، والنجمة، واليوم، واليوغا وما شابه؛ فهذه المانترا العظمى غير مقيّدة قطّ بتلك الاعتبارات السبعة في كل حين. وهي لا تكون عدوًّا لأحدٍ أبدًا. سواء كانت مُنجَزة تمامًا، أو مُنجَزة، أو ما تزال تُنال، فإنها حقًّا تمنح الظفر.

FAQs
It teaches that Shiva’s mantra-power operates by the Lord’s grace (Pati) rather than by worldly constraints; sincere japa is never obstructed by astrological calculations and inevitably leads toward siddhi and liberation.
It supports Saguna Shiva worship through accessible daily practice: one may worship the Shiva-linga and perform mantra-japa without waiting for “perfect” timings, trusting that Shiva accepts devotion at all times.
Regular mantra-japa (especially the Shaiva great mantra such as the Panchakshara) done with steadiness and devotion—optionally alongside linga-puja with bhasma (tripundra) and rudraksha—without anxiety about auspicious dates.
