Regarding shiv upasna

Can I chant pashupatastra stotra of shivji daily? Actually I do eat meat occasionally few times a month nd I've heard most upasna of shivji happens in his satvik form unlike his fierce forms like bhairav ji , where I come from meat eating is quite common nd still people are really religious nd worship shivji a lot,too much heed to diet was not paid , so I wanted to ask if I'm allowed to practice it or not or if vegetarian diet is non negotiable.

Hi , I have been worshipping hanumanji for quite some time now though it has been on nd off my practice was not consistent , the thing is I want to switch my upasna nd take ma durga or forms of devi as my ishtha devta , I have repeatedly tried to worship hanumanji with consistency but haven't been able to , I believe my temperament doesn't suit him he's a staunch bramhchari nd vaishnava nd I think of women very often 😅 nd hv a high s@x drive even though I've never indulged in it also I'm a non veg eating brahmin so even that is an issue I've tried to leave everything nd go full into satvic upasna but it doesn't really help I try for a few days nd falter , I believe forcefully trying to bottle up my urges don't help I just become frustrated nd irritable afterwards I might seem satvic nd holy from outside but from I side I'm exhausted it's like trying to stop a volcano from erupting , growing up shivji and hanumanji were my favourite deities I hv worshipped them since childhood I come from a brahmin family (yes we are non veg eating brahmins ,from generations) so puja paath was regular at home I was very physically weak as a child so my mother taught me hanuman chalisa , she's really devoted to him , never in my life have I seen her recite hanuman chalisa when we were in trouble nd we are not helped In some way or other some help would come some my devotion from him came from there but now I believe I'm not really cut out for his path even if follow by force I wouldn't be able to go deeper in his upasna , I know a little bit of astrology so when I had checked my kundli by the sutras of rishi jaimini the 12 th from karakamsha technique my istha devta came out to be ruler of mars , then I understood why I feel attracted to him and other ugra Martian devtas like narsingh ji , baglamukhi mata and skandha bhagwan I have always had liking for more ugra devtas since childhood , last year I had tried a bit of durga upasna nd did a small anusthana of her 32 names dwatrinshnamawali in Sharad Navratri I was surprised to find I was able to maintain bramhacharya much more easily nd I enjoyed her sadhna nd didn't feel drained or tired those were one of the most beautiful 10 days of my life , sitting in a dark room with just the light of the deep nd the only faint sound of her names in her room , I loved doing her sadhna after that I wasn't consistent with her upasna due to my work I've decided to worship her seriously nd consistently as my ishtha from now on since her sadhna already feels fun nd joyful to me , since my istha graha is mars as seen from 12th from my karakamsha in my d9 I am thinking to worship her chamunda aspect , durga in my opinion is an umbrella term a lot of devis are termed as durga a lot of them hv their further categorization nd specifications , since she is the combined shakti of mahakali Mahalakshmi mahasaraswati the 3 moola shaktis I believe all other forms of bhagwati are incorporated inside of her though I'm not sure if im incorrect you can correct me if I'm wrong . Even her navarna mantra is actually the mantra of ma chamunda , isolated specialized worship of bhagwati chamunda as I've heard is very rare these days nd most of her upasna happens in her durga form only since her true form is extremely ugra nd fierce one can tell from the skeletonized iconographyonly, so I'm planning to worship ma durga nd keep intention in mind that it is her chamunda form I'm worshipping , please guide me what stotrams nd stutis , I can use to worship her in a structured nd proper way with rules regulations etc.😊 and if there's something which I have said wrong I'm sorry nd please feel free to correct me.

I was trying to find what diff diff technique jyotishas use to find istha deva , in my search I came across many techniques like 5th nd 9th house of d1 , 5th house sign , vimshansha d20 5th and 9th technique, but one technique I came across that I found actually to be very accurate was the Jaimini technique of karakamsa , in which the atmakarakas position is found in d9 navamsha which is called the karakamsha, then 12 house from it is the istha devta , if the house has 1 planet ruler of that planet is the istha deva , if there is influence of multiple grahas on the 12th house from karakamsha then the strongest among them nd their ruler is taken as istha , if the 12th house from karakamsha has no planet lord of that house is istha deva , my question is in previous techniques even the nature nd gender of the diety can be told like odd rashis for male deities nd even rashis for female dieties nd good grahas for saumya devtas nd paap grahas for ugra devtas my question is , is this technique valid in the karakamsha technique as well , for example my atmakaraka Is sun and in my navamsha it is situated in the 7th house in Taurus, 12 houses from it is aries in 6th house there is no planet in it so lord of thehouse is to be taken which is mars , who lies in virgo in 11th house , so can I apply the technique mentioned above to find the gender nd nature of devta since house lord mars is in even sign it should be a female diety nd since mars is a paap graha the dietys nature should be ugra , I'm asking this to help me discern which particular diety is it since there are many devi devtas related to mars like hanumanji, skanda, baglamukhi, chamunda,bhadrakali etc.
