Guest guest Posted March 28, 2003 Report Share Posted March 28, 2003 These are mostly planetary rulers. Rudrakshas also have numerolgical associations with certain deities. One face brings blessings from ParaBrahman. Two faces brings Ardhanarishvari's blessings. Three faces brings Agni's blessings. Four faces brings Brahma's (and by extention, Sarasvati's) blessings. Five faces brings Sada-Shiva's (and by extenstion, Parvati's) blessings. Six faces brings Skanda's blessings. Seven faces brings Lakshmi's (and her son Kama's) blessings. Eight faces brings Ganesha's blessings. Nine faces brings Durga's blessings. April 2nd this year begins the springtime Navaratri (Nine nights of Goddess Durga). I have a 9-faced rudraksha that I wear during the holiday. -- Len/ Kalipadma On Thu, 27 Mar 2003 15:52:17 -0800 (PST) SY Zenith <syzenith writes: > > Rulers of different Rudraksha Mukhi > One mukhi - ruled by the Sun. > Two mukhi - ruled by the Moon. > Three mukhi - ruled by Mars. > Four mukhi - ruled by Mercury. > Five mukhi - ruled by Jupiter. > Six mukhi - ruled by Venus. > Seven mukhi - ruled by Saturn. > Eight mukhi - ruled by Rahu. > Nine mukhi - ruled by Ketu. > Ten mukhi - No ruling planet, pacifies all negative planetary > energy.

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2003 Report Share Posted March 29, 2003 Hi Len Kalipadma, Thanks for sharing the numerolgical associations. Wonderful information, printing it out to keep for reference. Appreciate the reminder too about the 9 Night of Durga. You lucky boy! You've got a 9-face rudraksha! Just wondering if you only wear it during special occasions?
