Salam to all members

I am ali khan from karachi pakistan i have seen that many persons are asking

regarding how and when to wear stones .so i had written an article to help all

persons . read it and pray for me.

ALI MUHAMMED KHAN

 

 

First an explanation of

Anukul / Pratikul

 

The Planetary Gemology World is divided into two (2) opposing philosophies,

viz., Anukul-vad v/s Pratikul-vad:

 

ANUKULA-VAD: A Jyotish Gem will act "SAME" as it's planet - So gems should be

chosen for Anukul (favorable) grahas

 

PRATIKUL-VAD: A Jyotish Gem will act "OPPOSITE" of it's planet - So gems should

be chosen for Pratikul (unfavorable) grahas

 

 

 

 

Anukul Planet's gem choosing method for resorting to or harnessing one's

auspicious (Anukul) planet(s) (exalted, mulatrikona, own sign, benefic, great

friend, good house, owner of good house, etc.) based on the concept that lucky

planet = lucky gem! In Jyotish there are basically two broad categories of

planetary position, viz., favorable (to the chart) (Anukul) OR unfavorable (to

the chart). One should avoid their weakness and cultivate their strengths.

"Ratna-anukul" means the auspicious gem of strongest most desirable planet.

Example: One has Leo Lagna - their lagna lord is Sun, who is exalted (100%

strength) and posited in the 10th house which is all very auspicious. That

person would be advised to use a fine ruby, the Sunís gem, to attract or harness

his auspicious influence. On the other hand if a person had Saturn debilitated

(0% strength) and in the 8th house they would be advised to avoid Saturnís gem

blue sapphire and all other Saturnine things or activities. And better

still they could donate a blue sapphire to pacify Shanideva. The followers of

Anukul-vad believe that the pratikul-graha color is the unlucky color, and to

magnify that bad color will simply increase the problems caused by that unlucky

Planet. Both methods believe that gems increase cosmic colors of their planets,

thus for an Anukuli it is considered to be suicide to increase a

pratikul-graha's color. In Anukul there is never a case where a Pratikul

(harmful to the chart/native) planet's gem should be worn as it will surely

increase the ill fortune; but such gems for a Pratikul planet can be used by

DONATING them - giving them AWAY - according to Shastric directions. A pure

anukuli believes that a pratikul-gem is NEVER good to use; it is increasing the

cosmic poison, and ill fortune (a person's bad cosmic vibes) should NEVER be

increased. Anukul means a planet that is beneficially disposed either by being

strong in own sign, good house, ruler of houses which will bring positive

results, or otherwise not ill disposed nor inclined to produce evil influence.

A planet which is good for the chart either naturally or by house ruler ship yet

somewhat weakened by placement may be strengthened through the gem, or a planet

which already is strong and giving benefic influence may be further strengthened

for gains in particular areas of life by wearing the gem.

 

 

 

 

Pratikul Planet's gem choosing method for overcoming a weak or evil planet,

based on the misconception that a 'pratikul' (inauspicious) planet is

strengthened by wearing it's gem and there by it changes from being inauspicious

(pratikul) to become auspicious (anukul). ILLOGIC: By providing the gem for a

malefic planet, benefic results will follow. Example: A person has Jupiter

debilitated and a malefic which is inauspicious or pratikul, but by wearing

Jupiter's gem, yellow sapphire or another yellow Jupiter jewel, it is believed

that the 'weak' (troublesome) Jupiter gets strengthened and REVERSES to become

auspicious. Some persons opine that a harmful planet means that the planet's

"cosmic color" is weak. The gems for the planets are concentrated essential

cosmic color rays; so by wearing the gem for the weak, Pratikul (harmful) color

that weak color is strengthened, and when the weak color is stronger then the

harmful influence will be REVERSED, removed or mitigated. Pratikul means

a planet that causes evil influence or suffering to the native as seen through

the horoscope. This may be a debilitated planet who is in a dusthana and enemy

of the lord of the lagna, or otherwise disposed that the influence simply causes

suffering.

 

 

 

 

Before describing the most popular methods, let me first say that choosing gems

which are favorable (Anukul for the native's chart) as well as clean (amala) and

auspicious, these two are a MUST in planetary gemology. Of the 6 PGA CODES the

prohibition against astrological use of synthetics is the least of all PG evils

as synthetics have no harmful effect because they have NO effect whatsoever. The

most important considerations are Anukul-graha gem choosing and flawless gems -

100% loupe clean down to 80% loupe clean is an acceptable range in our

experience. Always exercise CAUTION with any gem that has clarity below 80%

loupe clean. Very flawed gems are dead due to serious life-ending defects, and

according to Shastra, "If anyone wears a gem with many flaws (even) out of

ignorance, then grief, anxiety, sickness, death, loss of wealth and other evils

torment them."--- Sri Garuda Purana:1.70.19

 

When choosing gems we must add up the pluses in a chart. For example, one chart

has Venus exalted in a good house but a malefic for the Lagna and lord of a bad

house, so on the surface we have two pluses and two minuses or "+ + - -" , i.e.,

a good sign placement, a good house placement, but it is unfavorable by nature

for the native, and is lord of a bad house. Another chart might have a

debilitated planet as lord of their Moon sign, that is a benefic for the Lagna,

and in a good house, and lord of a good house, so that means a "- + + +" In the

first example we could rule the planet as borderline unfavorable (pratikul); but

the 2nd case has the planet mostly favorable (anukul) - so that weak, beneficial

planet could be made stronger. A strong anukul planet can also be made even

stronger to attain certain goals, like making an exalted Sun even stronger

because the native desires fame or increase in stature (provided the native HAS

the karma to achieve that, because we cannot do BETTER

than our karma).

 

Taking this further one could see house ownership, functional nature, periods in

motion, movements of Saturn, Yogini-dashas, as well as aspects, navamsa

positions, etc. to first of all conclude if the planet in question is FAVORABLE

- OR - UNFAVORABLE for the chart, all things considered. It doesn't matter if a

planet is strong or weak, it only matters that the planet is judged as favorable

(anukul-graha) or unfavorable (pratikul-graha). An anukul-graha can always be

strengthened, but a pratikul-graha should never be strengthened

 

That gems for Pratikul-grahas may be DONATED or GIVEN AWAY in a form of Vedic

charity to achieve Graha-shanti is another subject known as, "Ratna-arpana."

Using gem donations is he ONLY time an UNFAVORABLE planetary gem should be used

by the native - by giving it AWAY. The native should be informed what planets

are most FAVORABLE for them and then the native may choose from among their

Anukul-graha-ratnas or favorable planetary gems.

 

Adding the plus and minus points to determine which planets are most favorable

to the native enables us to proceed further.

 

1. First look to the lagna or rising sign and then check the lord of the rising

sign to see if it is in an auspicious condition in the rasi and navamsa charts.

If this is the case then we wholeheartedly prescribe the gemstone ruled by the

lagna's lord. Example: If one has Leo rising we look to the position of the Sun

(Lord of Leo) in the chart. If the Sun is posited in an auspicious sign, e.g.,

sign of exaltation, own sign, trine, or at least a friendly sign, it will act in

a beneficial way. If any of these are the case then we may recommended ruby or

another "Sun jewel" as one's first gem choice. NOTE: If the birth time is

unknown or unsure then skip this method...

 

A list of the primary rising sign gems is given as follows:

RISING SIGN (Lagna) RULING PLANET GEMSTONE

Aries

 

Mars

 

Red Coral

 

Taurus

 

Venus

 

Diamond

 

Gemini

 

Mercury

Yellow Sapphire

 

Capricorn

 

Saturn

 

Blue Sapphire

 

Aquarius

 

Saturn

 

Blue Sapphire

 

Pisces

 

Jupiter

 

Yellow Sapphire

 

 

 

 

2. Next check the position of the planet ruling one's mahadasha or major

planetary period. If this planet is well-placed in the rasi chart then prescribe

that planet's gemstone(s) for use during the duration of the mahadasha period.

Example: If one is in or entering a Jupiter mahadasha and if Jupiter is posited

in an auspicious sign and/or house position (unless otherwise afflicted) then

recommend yellow sapphire or another natural yellow gemstone.

 

 

 

 

3. Also look to one's birth sign or Moon rasi , i.e., the sign in which the Moon

is posited at the time of one's birth. In sidereal astrology the Moon's sign

position is considered very important. Example: If one's Moon sign is Leo, a

sign ruled by the Sun, then look to the sign and house position of the Sun in

the horoscope. If the Sun is located in an auspicious position in their chart

(unless otherwise afflicted) then one can recommend a ruby or other red Sun

jewel as one's "birth stone."

 

Here is the list of primary Vedic "birthstones"

Cat's eye

 

 

 

Ketu

 

 

 

N/A

 

 

 

 

4. Then check the janma-naksatra or the constellation in which the Moon is

posited at birth. Each of these 27 birth stars is ruled by one of the nine

planets recognized in sidereal astrology. Example: If one's birth constellation

is "punarvasu" (the 7th constellation), which is ruled by Jupiter, then look to

the position of Jupiter in the horoscope. If Jupiter is located in an auspicious

sign and/or house position in the rasi chart (unless otherwise afflicted) then

recommend yellow sapphire or another yellow "Jupiter" jewel.

 

Following is a list of the 27 constellations, their ruling planet and

corresponding primary gemstone:

Ketu (Moon's South Node)

21. UTTARSHADA

26. UTTARBHADRAPADA

 

Saturn (Shani)

 

Blue Sapphire

 

27. REVATHI

 

Mercury (Budha)

 

Emerald

 

 

 

 

5. Next examine all the nine planets in the rasi chart to see if any are

exalted. Planets which are in their sign of maximum strength (exaltation) give

positive and beneficial results, and their gemstone(s) may be used with

advantage.

 

 

 

 

6. Another consideration is sign ownership . A planet which is located in it's

own sign will give beneficial results, and that planet's gem can also be used to

advantage.

 

 

 

 

7. A further consideration is any planet which is in it's sign of mulatrikona or

trine. A Planet in mulatrikona gives beneficial results similar to an exalted

planet, and their gem(s) may be used to advantage.

 

 

 

 

8. A planet which is located in a friendly sign can also give beneficial

results, and it's gemstone may be used to advantage.

 

 

 

 

9. The final consideration is 'preference' based on the characteristic

"planetary influence." Example: If a person wishes to use a Sun jewel like ruby

or red spinel to increase their name and fame, then they can use that stone

provided the person's Sun is not located in an unfriendly or inauspicious sign

and/or house position in their sidereal horoscope.

 

 

 

 

SPECIAL: Using Planetary Gems by DONATING them. It is our experience that fine,

natural gemstones do indeed "strengthen" or magnify the influence of their

associated planets. Therefore, lucky planets = lucky gems. If a person intends

to wear their lucky gemstone then they should only use gems which are related to

planets that are considered to be "lucky" or posited in an auspicious rasi

(zodiac sign) and/or bhava (house) in their sidereal birth chart. Gemstones do

not alter or change the angle, position or condition in which planets are placed

in one's horoscope. Methods for propitiating or reducing the harmful effects of

evil or malevolently placed planets in one's birth chart include the chanting of

planetary mantras, prescribed sacrifices and charity. These may be performed

along with the use of associated planetary gemstones to help "magnify" the

prayer. A person who is unwilling to perform these meritorious acts should not

use gems for unlucky planets.

[Guest guest]

salam ali sahab,

your article on gems is very much educational, it really help us,

understanding the concepts and philosophy behind the gem therepy

But there are few things i dare to ask you

1) how the gems are affecting the planets? whether they influnce the

planets or they changed our chemistry to best suit the dasas of

nakshtras/planets

2) Was there any scientific reseach done on this subject

3) You are also requested to give the common name of the stone cats eye

with regards

pankaj

Dear Ali Ji,

 

Many a thanks for your lucid and clear explanation in the matter

 

regarding

 

(1) strengthening the strong planets

 

(2) strengthening the weak planets

 

 

A planet gives the result of its sign/navamsa/constellation

dispositors during its dasa/antardasha/transit.

 

Situation (A)

--------------

In majority of charts- it may not be possible that all the 3 factors

above influencing the planets are good/ strong.

 

What should be done in such a situation.

 

 

Situation (B)

--------------

A planet may be good relative to Lagna but at the same time it

can be harmful to other bhava/ house matters- say if it is highly

inauspicious of children/ wife/finance.

 

How to solve such a tricky situation ?

 

Situation ©

----------------

A planet say Sun for Leo lagna exalted in Aries (say in 9th or 10th

house)- is most favourable for the lagna, but at the same time may be

posited in 6/8 position from other planets say an exalted

Mercury/Saturn in the 2nd/3rd house.

 

Then being posited in 6/8 houses from Mercury/Saturn,

this Sun is not expected to give favourable results during its

Antardasa periods being placed in a bad housed from the Mahadasa

lords.

 

What to do in this situation ?

 

With thanks in advance for a lucid reply,

 

Srikanta

experience that fine, natural gemstones do indeed "strengthen" or

gemstone then they should only use gems which are related to planets

that are considered to be "lucky" or posited in an auspicious rasi

(zodiac sign) and/or bhava (house) in their sidereal birth chart.

Gemstones do not alter or change the angle, position or condition in

which planets are placed in one's horoscope. Methods for propitiating

or reducing the harmful effects of evil or malevolently placed

planets in one's birth chart include the chanting of planetary

mantras, prescribed sacrifices and charity. These may be performed

along with the use of associated planetary gemstones to

help "magnify" the prayer. A person who is unwilling to perform these

meritorious acts should not use gems for unlucky planets.

Salam pankaj jee.

Thanks for appreciating . i have studied a lot than i think and a theory came

to my mind which is "planets emits special type of electromagnetic radiation as

you cant hear on radio any other frequency except which you select so the stones

are formed when that planet is forming an aspect with earth so its radiations

are absorbed by mother earth so after millions of years diferent changes and

heat under the earth changes that area which absorbed the radiation of that

planet so that forms stones which works as conductor to absorb the radiation of

that particular planet". so we recomend the stones to absorb that planets

radiations. and the common name of cats eye is lahisineya.

your article on gems is very much educational, it really help us,

understanding the concepts and philosophy behind the gem therepy

But there are few things i dare to ask you

1) how the gems are affecting the planets? whether they influnce the

planets or they changed our chemistry to best suit the dasas of

nakshtras/planets

2) Was there any scientific reseach done on this subject

3) You are also requested to give the common name of the stone cats eye

dear ali khan,

Namaste.

Your article on ratna dharana is well written, giving

all the views on the subject. It is heartening to see

that you have good knowledge in vedic astrology. Your

quote from Garuda purana is very apt. By the way,

consider the gem of Atmakaraka also as of prime

importance, since Atmakaraka is given utmost

importance by sage Jaimini.

regards,

satya
