Guest guest Posted August 23, 2003 Report Share Posted August 23, 2003 Here is the article on Jupiter and yellow sapphire. VRIHASPATI Jupiter is the most auspicious and beneficent planet. Wealthy and influential individuals generally possess a strong Jupiter in their horoscopes, and this reflects the rich rewards of positive karma accumulated in previous lives. Jupiter governs religious activity, financial affairs, personal happiness, and teaching. Jupiter also determines one's spiritual orientation. It is associated with the color yellow, the bodily fluids, education, pilgrimage places, and transcendental wisdom. The Sanskrit name for Jupiter is "guru," indicating a source of divine knowledge and spiritual insight. If Jupiter is exalted one will be a leader of men, powerful, respected, although susceptible to anger. But if the position of Jupiter in a person's horoscope is debilitated Jupiter can cause personal unhappiness, egotism, sloth, and legal problems. LIGHT BLUE is the cosmic color transmitted by yellow sapphires and other yellow gems. Light blue color waves, being very cold, relate to the ethereal nature and are helpful in curing diseases of the glands, the fat system and bodily cavities. Jupiter astral talismans are known to enhance spiritual understanding, facilitate pregnancy and childbirth, improve marital relations, increase one's fortune, and help balance the endocrine system. Jupiter jewels are known to be especially favorable to women by enhancing their happiness and contentment. Gemstones Jupiter's energy is transmitted by natural yellow sapphires, topaz, citrine, heliodor, and other flawless (eye-clean) yellow gems.

Ritual A yellow sapphire should be bought on a Thursday, in an ascending cycle of the Moon and when Pushya Nakshatra is present. If the nakshatra is not Pushya, then Punarvasu, Vishakha, or Purva Bhadrapad are also auspicious for buying a yellow sapphire. The gem should be given to the jeweler on the same day, between sunrise and 11.00 A.M. The best time to wear a yellow sapphire ring is in the early morning. Before wearing the ring for the first time it should be immersed in cow's milk for a few minutes and then it should be washed in rainwater, spring water, or water kept in a copper pot over night. After it has been washed, the ring should be placed on a yellow cloth upon which a Jupiter Yantra has been drawn with roli and a yantra (or idol of Jupiter in gold) engraved on a silver plate should be placed on the same cloth. One should offer flowers and incense to the engraved yantra and to the stone that has been set in the ring and then recite the mantra of Jupiter. Mantra Aum Brim Brahaspataye Namah Aum The mantra should be recited either 108 or 19,000 times, as prescribed, and then the wearer should meditate on the gemstone as a symbol of Lord Jupiter. After meditation the ring should be worn on the first finger, which is the Jupiter finger, otherwise on the ring finger of the right hand. The yantra that needs to be drawn on the cloth and on the silver plate is the same numerical yantra and is as follows: 10 5 12 11 9 7 6 13 8 A ring worn in the manner brings good luck, peace and prosperity. Pukhraj (yellow sapphire) bestows vigor, vitality, wisdom, longevity, name, and fame. If someone is having problems to finding a good mate for their daughter that problem will also be solved. One who wears yellow sapphire progresses in the spiritual field and becomes free of all fears of evil vibrations, ghosts, and genii. Disease and madness caused by afflicted planets also are cured. As long as the ring is on one's hand one will never die an accidental death. Source The primary sources in India, as mentioned in its ancient scripture, are the Mahanadi and Brahmputra rivers, the Himalayas, the Vindhyachal Mountains, Orissa, Bengal, and Kashmir. Sri Lanka produces sapphires in yellow, light green, and colorless varieties in sufficient quantities. Yellow and white varieties are also found in Indochina, in New South Wales and Queensland in Australia, and in Zimbabwe. Yellow, smoky yellow, blackish, and colorless white sapphires are also found in Thailand. Tanvir <tanvir wrote: Salam.
