HOW TO CHOOSE A GEMSTONE
There are
many branches in vedic astrology as different rishis gave their own sutras (
formulas ) and so there are different parameters for choosing a right gemstone
according to one’s horoscope. So astrologers use different parameters to study
a horoscope and decide the best suited gemstone according to one’s horoscope.
* Some of the astrologers choose gemstones according to one’s
ascendant / lagna of the horoscope.
* Some of the astrologer study the whole horoscope to find
out the planet with lowest degree, which is considered as the weakest planet need
to be strengthen.
* There are astrologers considering the sublord of the 11th
house to the best planet to give result as 11th house is considered as the
house of fulfillment of desire and so the gemstone represent that planet is
considered for wearing in the ring.
* There are astrologer who recommend to wear gemstones as per
running mahadasa period of an individual.
CASUALLY WEARING GEMSTONE CAN BE A PROBLEM
Not all gemstone suits a person according to astrology in
one’s horoscope. Unknowingly wearing a gemstone of one’s choice which if
unfortunately do not suits the individual according to astrology will create
unnecessary problems in his life, as it will activate those houses which would
give pain, frustration and problems to the individual’s life.
WRONG SELF MADE BELIEVES AND RULES IN THE SOCIETY ABOUT GEMSTONES
There is a wrong self made beliefs among people that Pearl or
moonstone and Yellow Sapphire can be worn in ring by anyone as they are very
auspicious planet and do not harm anyone.
It is a belief that any person who is very short tempered,
always in panic, gets annoyed too much can wear pearl or moonstone, which will
help them to calm down and get focused.
There are also people who feels that Jupiter being sattvic (harmonious ) planet so wearing a Yellow sapphire will
always give benefic results and so there is a understanding among the people
that anyone can wear Yellow Sapphire gemstone ring thus get benefit results in
their life.
There is one set of people in the
society according to whom wearing a Blue Sapphire ring could be very dangerous,
even if it is suggested by an astrologer. The funny believe according to them
is that the gemstone should not be worn directly in a ring. It should be tied
in a small blue fabric and need to be tied on the arm and observe if any
negative incidents or events is happening to the individual in 15 days or not.
If nothing wrong happens during these period of time then only the person can
wear the Blue Sapphire gemstone ring, otherwise not.
PROBLEMS DUE TO WEARING OF WRONG GEMSTONE RING
Some of the examples of problems
taking pear and yellow into consideration, if worn without consulting an
astrologer.
*When a person wears a pearl or moonstone ring without the
consulting an astrologer then if fortunate and moon which represent pearl and
moonstone be the lord of benefic house then would not harm the person, but unfortunately
if the moon is the lord of the malefic houses 6th, 8th or 12th house then the
person wearing this ring will welcome troubles. More over if the moon is the
lord of any of the malefic houses is positioned in another malefic house then
the problems will be more prominent. As moon governs mind so the problems will
be more pronounced on mental level concerning the house of that horoscope.
*The same kind of effect is seen when a person wears a wrong
yellow sapphire ring without consulting an astrologer. As Jupiter has the tendency
to expand, so it will activate the malefic houses and expand the problems
related to that houses and thus the individual who thinks of benefitting from
wearing a yellow sapphire ring is actually driving himself in problems.
The kind and nature of problems will differ from person to
person as there are other parameters which will determine the strength and
nature of problems according to the significations of the planets with respect
to mahadasa and some other parameters as per the branches of astrology and its
dictum.
This is not astrology shastra, but
this is an illiterate in astrology common man’s believe shastra which is dwelling
in the society and many believe it and is spreading by mouth to mouth
conversation as there is no book or literature on this sutra, neither by rishi
nor by any astrologers.
