Natural Emerald - The Gemstone of Mercury - By Guruji Sri Arnav

 

The gemstone representing the positive powers of Mercury according to

Vedic Astrology and Navagraha Gemology is Emerald. Mercury is the

planet of business, communication, intelligence, education and

intuition. This planet is often referred to as the prince among

planets for it takes the characteristics of the planet with which it

is posited in a horoscope.

 

This planet signifies love and relationships also and it is said that

if a man and a woman present each other with an Emerald their Love

grows and becomes permanent. Mercury is also the planet of public

relations, modes of communication and publishing.

 

It is also a well-known fact that if one ties an emerald to a Lady's

waist during delivery, the delivery is normal and without pain.

 

We will analyze ascendant wise the combinations in which this gemstone

is suitable.

 

Aries Ascendant and Emerald

Emerald is not an auspicious gemstone for this ascendant ruled by

Mars. Firstly, Mercury is not compatible planet with the ascendant

lord Mars. Secondly Mercury in this ascendant becomes the lord of the

third house of short distance travel, courage, relationships with

siblings and the 6th house of diseases, debts and enemies. Emerald

should only be considered when the major period or the sub period of

Mercury is operating in an individual's life and Mercury is posited in

3rd, 7th, 10th houses. Mercury's placement in the 6th house for

wearing an Emerald should be considered only in the condition of

litigation activity or excessive competition faced by the individual.

The placement of Mercury in other divisional charts should also be

analyzed before the individual is advised to wear the Emerald. Remove

the Emerald once the Mercury period is over.

 

Taurus Ascendant and Emerald

Mercury is an important and an auspicious planet for the Taurus

ascendant. Firstly, it is a friend of the ascendant lord Venus and

secondly it owns power creating and auspicious houses in the Taurus

ascendant. In this ascendant, Mercury becomes the Lord of the 2nd

house of wealth, bank balance, speech, domestic atmosphere and the 5th

trine house of higher knowledge, speculative profits, power of

negotiation and diplomacy, public relations, fame and gain from

mantras. Individuals with the placement of Mercury in the 1st

house/ascendant, 2nd house, 5th house, 9th house and 10th house should
