Rituals while wearing Gemstones

The following rituals should be followed while wearing gemstones as per Astrology:

  • The ring with the gemstone on it should be kept immersed in fresh milk (milk that was not used before and is not boiled) overnight. Avoid pasteurized milk that we get in the packets for daily consumption instead, try to get cow’s milk from a milkman.
  • The ring should be worn in the first hour after the sunrise.
  • It should be worn on the day of the week belonging to the planet, e.g. Ruby should be worn on Sunday, Neelam on Saturday and so on.
  • Gomeda (Rahu’s gemstone) should be worn on a Wednesday, Cat’s eye (Ketu’s stone) should be worn on Thursdays.
  • The mantra of the planetary deity should be chanted 108 times and the ring should then be worn.

The mantras for various planets are:

Planet Name Mantra (Sanskrit) Transliteration
Sun ॐ घृणिः सूर्याय नमः|| om grunih suryaay namah
Moon ॐ सोम सोमाय नमः|| om som somaay namah
Mars ॐ अं अंगार्काय नमः || om am angaarkaay namah
Mercury ॐ बुम बुधाय नमः || om bum budhaay namah
Jupiter ॐ वृम वृहस्पतये नमः || om vrim vrihaspataye namah
Venus ॐ शुम शुक्राय नमः || om shum shukraay namah
Saturn ॐ शम शनैश्चाराय नमः || om sham shanaishcharaay namah
Rahu ॐ राम राहुवे नमः || om raam raahuve namah
Ketu ॐ कें केतवे नमः || om kem ketave naham

Although Rahu, Ketu and Saturn are malefics, stones for them are prescribed if they are yogakaraka elements in a person’s horoscope. Astrologers do not prescribe stones for lords of 6th, 8th and 12th house lords, the planets which become functional malefics on account of ownership of these houses.

Dear Sir,

I am wearing a .91 carat diamond on my right hand ring finger and a 3.5 carat blue saphire on my right hand middle finger. I heard that the diamond does compliment the blue sapphire. I am currently going thru a phase of sadi sathi. Can you please advice if this combination will help me or will there be a conflict.

Hi,

I am Gururaj. I am very much interested in astrology. So I will be studying astrology, numerology in my free time. As far as I know, the lord of 1,5 and 9th houses are supposed to give benefic results and their respective colors will be your lucky colors, and their respective stones will be your lucky stones. But 1 exception!!!! Blue sapphire should be tested for some hours or days before worn.

Regards,
Gururaj
