Guest guest Posted February 9, 2003 Report Share Posted February 9, 2003 Jaya JagannathDear Jyotisha, Pt. Sanjay Rath's VRA is mine of information for gemstones too. I am giving you a ready rekoner from that Book, which may guide you in selecting the right stone. Best Wishes Sarajit Birth No. Ruling Planet Prescribed Gem Hindi Name Nature of the Gem Finger to wear [1] Remarks Day to start wearing the gem Preferred Metal Weight When the planet is unfavorable [2] When planet is in fall [3] Gem Substitutes 1 Sun Ruby Manik Hot 3rd Passion under control Sunday Gold 3 or 5 Rattis Cat’s eye Corundum, Red Garnet, Star Ruby 2 Moon Pearl Moti Cold 4th or 3rd Monday Sliver 2, 4, 6, 9 Rattis should not be 7 or 8 Ratti Moon stone Blue Sapphire Moon stone, 3 Jupiter Yellow Sapphire, Topaz Pukhraj Cold 3rd Thursday Gold 7 or 13 Rattis should not be 6, 11 or 15 Rattis Lt. blue Sapphire White pearl Citrine, Yellow Garnet 4 Rahu Hessonite Gomed Cold 2nd or 4th Saturday Sliver 6,11 or 13 Ratti & should not be 7, 10 or 16 Ratti Yellow Sapphire Hessonite Brown Tourmaline 5 Mercury Emerald Panna Cold 4th or 2nd Not for newly married couples Wednesday Gold 3, 5, 7, 10 Ratti Peridot Ruby Aquamarine, Green Tourmaline, Beryl 6 Venus Diamond Hira Hot 3rd Friday Gold or platinum ¼ or ½ Ratti (Min) White coral White Sapphire Zircon, Pearl (4th finger) Quartz, white coral 7 Ketu Cat’s eye Lahsanya Very Hot 2nd or 3rd Tuesday Gold 3,5 or 7 Ratti Emerald Topaz Lapis lazuli, Tiger’s eye Turquoise, Agate 8 Saturn Blue Sapphire Neelam Very Cold 2nd or 4th Saturday Gold 5 or 7 Ratti Blue Sapphire Lapis lazuli Amethyst, Lapis lazuli 9 Mars Coral (Red) Moonga Hot 3rd or 2nd Tuesday Sliver or Copper 7, 9 or 11 Ratti Red coral Ruby Corundum [1] Counted from the index finger (Tarjani). Thus, index finger=1, Middle finger (Madhyama)=2; Ring Finger =3; Little finger=4. Shri L.R.Chaudhry, a noted Astro-palmist has a similar opinion about the wearing of gemstones. He too does not recommend gemstones for the index finger. [2] When the planet is a malefic for the horoscope, this gemstone is for temporary use during the Dasa-bhukti of the planet. In this column (11) the opposite gemstone/ balancing planetary gem has been suggested. If instead a gem is to be worn for the main Dasa planet itself, then it should be worn in the left hand. For example, if Rahu is malefic then during its period a Yellow sapphire/topaz/citrine can be worn in the right hand ring finger or a Hessonite/Brown Tourmaline etc (See Col. 3 & 13) can be worn in the left hand middle finger. [3] When the planet is a benefic for the horoscope, but is weak like being in debility then the gemstones listed under this column are prescribed for causing cancellation of debility or for enhancing the life-forces that are being destroyed due to the debility. For example, the Moon is debilitated in Scorpio (8th house of natural zodiac) and is said to be MARANA KARAK if placed in the 8th house from Lagna. Weakness of the Moon, in any chart is not good for longevity. Hence a blue sapphire is used for enhancing the life-force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
