PRECIOUS STONES GENERAL In the West people used to prescribe what are called zodiac stones: January—Hyacinth; February—Amethyst; March—Bloodstone, April—Sapphire; May—Agate; June— Emerald; July—Onyx; August—Cornelian; September—Chrysolite; October— Aquamarine; November—Topaz and December—Ruby. The important gems referred to in Hind Sastras are nine: they are: “The Diamond, Ruby, Vaidhoorya, Pearl, Gomeda, Coral, Emerald, Pushparaga and Neela are the nine respective gems.” From Sanskrit sources the following are the accredited stones for the seats of the planets according to Indian Astrology: 1. Padmaraga. (Ruby) that of the Sun;

2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.

Chandrakanta, that of the Moon; Markata (Emerald) that of Rahu; Sapphire, that of Saturn; Gomeda, that of Jupiter; Sphatika that of Jupiter; Vaidhoorya, that of Venus and Coral that of Mars.

The following gems should be gifted when the planets are adverse: When the sun, good ruby should be gifted; When the Moon is so disposed, pearl; When Mars, is unfavourable Coral; When Mercury, is unfavourable emerald; When Jupiter, is unfavourable Pushparaga; When Venus, is unfavourable diamond; When Saturn, is unfavourable sapphire; When Rahu, is unfavorurable Gomeda and When Kethu is evil, the gem to be gifted is Vaidurya.” “When planets are evil, the following gems should be worn on the body: If the Sun is evil. Vaidurya; If the Moon, the gem to be worn is sapphire; If Mars, the ruby; If Mercury is evil, ruby again; If Jupiter is evil, the pearl; If Venus is so disposed, the diamond; If Saturn, sapphire will do good, they say; If Rahu, Gomeda should be worn and If Kethu, emerald.” “For all-round prosperity, people should wear ornaments using the following gems: If one is born in the Sun’s major period, ruby; In that of the Moon’s major period, diamond; That of Mars, coral; In that of Mercury, Gomeda; In that of Jupiter, pearl; In that of Venus, Vai-durya; In that of Saturn, Neela (sapphire) and In that of Rahu, emerald (Kethu not given, but presumably emerald as in the last ease). According to Western views, silver is a better frame for the setting of gems for occult use; because, the spirits, or the powers find it a more congenial medium.

Mantras Mantras relate to the repeated chanting of auspicious lines or words to overcome the problems. Each root word produces a sound that activates a different center in the human body which correlates to the particular planet. Mantra for Improving Life (This Mantra is from Ch. IX of the Bhagvad Geeta. It is the Verse 22) Ananyaa shchinta yanto maam Ye janaah paryupaasatey Teshaam nityaa bhiyuktaa naam Yogakshemam Vahaamyaham

(It means: To those men who worship Me alone, thinking of no other, of those everunited. To those men, ever-united in love, who surrender to Me, after having done their best. I secure what is not already possessed, and preserve what they already possess). Mantra for a Peaceful Life Sarveshaam Svaastir Bhavatu Sarveshaam Shaantir Bhavatu, Sarveshaam Poornam Bhavatu Sarveshaam Mangalam Bhavatu Om Shanti, Shanti, Shanti. (May Health abound forever. May Peace abound forever. May complete abundance, abound forever. May auspiciousness abound forever. Om Peace, Peace, Peace !) Mantra for Prosperity Aayur dehee Dhanam Dehee Vidyaam dehee Maheshwari Samastamakhilam dehee Dehee mey Parameshwari. (Give me long life. Give me wealth. Give me knowledge, O Maheshwari (Mother Goddess), O Parmeshwari, give me also everything else that I desire). (This is a mantra of Maheshwari. Maheshwari is the consort of Maheshwara, another name for Shiva. It is said that Shiva always grants the boons of those that pray to him or his consort). Mantra for Success Krishna Krishna Mahaayogin Bhakttanaam Bhayankara Govinda Parmaananda Sarvey Mey Vash Maanay O Krishan, O Krishna ! Thou art the Yogi or Yogis. (Thou bestowed fearlessness on the devotees. 0 Govinda ! Thou art the giver of Supreme Bless. Bring everything to my favour). Maha Mrityunjaya Mantra Aum Trayambakam Yajamahe, Sugandhim Pushtivardhanam; Urva Rukamiva Bandhanam, Mrityor Mokshiye Mamritat. We worship Shiva - The Three-Eyed Lord. Whose eyes are the Sun, Moon and Fire. Who is fragrant and nourishes all beings; May he protect us from all disease, poverty and fear. And bless us with prosperity, longevity and health. May he liberate us from death, For the sake of immortality; As the cucumber is automatically liberated, From its bondage from the creeper when it is fully ripens.)

Bhagavad Geeta Mantra Karmanye Vaadhika-raste, Maa Phaleshu Kadachana; Maa Karma-phala-hetur-bhoorma, Te sangostwakarmini. (Your right is to work only, But never to its fruits; Let not the fruits of action be thy motive, Nor let thy attachment be to inaction). Tantra Tantra (Sanskrit : loom), tantric yoga or tantrism is any of several esoteric traditions rooted in the religions of India. It exists in Hindu, Buddhist, Jain, and New Age forms. Tantra is used when the situation becomes adverse and no solution is found even by Mantra. Yantra Yantra is a mystical diagram, an instrument or an apparatus to represent gods and deities. Yantra, the most effective remedy, is used when the process of remedy has to be followed for a longer period and when it is not possible to practice other remedies. Yantra is the visible means to gain power, wealth and nullify the malefic effects of planets. Yantra needs to be purified by auspicious mantras for effective results. The remedies do not bring about success directly but they just help overcome the obstacles and difficult situations. Remedies can not substitute the efforts that are mandatory to achieve the goals. Fasting Fasts are recommended on a specific day and on that appointed day clothes are worn according to the planet for whom the fast is observed and using crystal or Rudraksha bead mantras have to be chanted to appease the planet. Fasts observed with the proper japams give ten fold effect to the person who is observing the fast.

Worshipping the Planets On auspicious occasions and festivals Navagrahas are duly worshipped and to propitiate all the planets following Sholaka is recited. Om Brahma Muraristripurantakari Bhanu Shashi Bhoomi Suto Bhudasch. Gurusch Shukrah Sani Rahu Ketawah Sarve Grahah Shantikara Bhavantu.

It means- O' lord, Brahma, Vishnu, Mahesha, The Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu! Please bless us with peace and welfare. As a matter of fact, Navagrahas leave their impact on every human being according to his/her time of birth and Zodiac, signs at that time. Some planets cast good while some others cast bad effects on the native. To ward off evil effects of a particular planet, it is worshipped. Worship, Yajna and donation pacifies the planet and thus the native gets good results and evil days go off simultaneously. Worshipping the planets and chanting the appropriate mantras are quite helpful. In continuation, one should perform havana of dasamsa; dashamsha tarpan of havana, dashamsha marjan of tarpan and dashamsha brahman bhojan of marjan. All these must be performed under the able guidance of a Brahmin scholar to have desired result without fail. Procedure of worshipping the Navagrahas: At first, arrange all the things essential for the worship of Navagrahas. One shouldn't get up to get things once the worship begins. The native who is to worship the Navagrahas, should leave his bed meditating his own God-Goddess. He must then ease himself off and take a bath. He must sprinkle the water of Ganga in his water for bath. While performing the pooja the native should sit facing east whereas the priest must face north. Both must sit cross legged. Once again the native should sprinkle the water of Ganga on himself contemplating his '1st Deva'. He should chant the following mantra simultaneously in order to purify himself. Om Apavitrah Pavitro Va Sarvavastha Gatopi Va. Yah Smaret Pundarikaksham Sa Bahyamyantrah Shuchih. Abstract: O Lord of this Universe, Jagdishwar! We make ourselves sacred by contemplating you. After this, the following steps are performed while chanting various mantras. 1. Aasan (seat) should be purified by sprinkling water on it. 2. In various provinces sacred thread is changed during the worship of Navagrahas. The native in that case wears a new sacred thread. 3. If wife and husband sit together, the priest should tie them with their clothes 4. Now sip water thrice from your right hand and chant the mantras all the while: Om Keshavaya Namah, Om Narayanaya Namah Om Madhavaya Namah 5. Once you have done the ablution you should purify your head with this mantra: Om Hrishikeshaya Namah 6. Light up a Deep (lamp) of ghee. 7. Now take a Sankalp for Navagraha Pujan and pray - O, light like lord, kindle good ideas in my self. O lords - the Sun, Varuna, Indra, Brihaspali and Vishnu! Kindly bless us and ensure our welfare. 8. You can now start worship of Navagrahas-obviously with sankalp. 9. First of all Lord Ganesh is invoked and his worship is performed. 10. Once you are through with the worship of Ganesh, go for the worship of all the planets according to the scriptures. Worshipping the Sun Of the nine planets, the Sun is at the top. He bestows energy on one and all. Those desirous of his worship should do so on any Sunday - but after worshipping lord Ganesh.

After Sthapana of the Sun, his worship should be accomplished according to Ganesha pujan. In the course of worship one should meditate about the Sun and chant his mantras and beeja-mantras. The worshipper must recite Surya Gayatri mantra, Sri Aditya Hridaya Stotra and Surya Dwadash Naam stotra. After all these, the native should donate some wheat, jaggery, copper, clothes, ruby and red piece of cloth according to his capacity. As per the scriptures lord Vishnu too should be worshipped along with the Sun. Note that Sunday is the day of worship for the Sun and for the fast in his name. But this fast i.e. Ravivariya Vrata should commence on first Sunday of Shukla Paksha of Jyestha and be continued on 12 Sundays or till the wish is fulfilled. The worshipper should have wheat bread (rotis) along with jaggery or sugar before sun-set. He should not eat salt. Worship of Lord Moon Moon is nearest to the Earth. It has a great impact on our body and psyche. To start worship of Moon, take some white flowers in your folded hands and meditate that 'Kshirsaagar-born lord moon, along with Rohini, come and accept my offering and bless me with well-being'. Later on, perform worship according to that of Lord Ganesha. Chanting and reciting mantras of Moon, his beej-mantra, Soma - Gayatri and Chandra-Kavach stotras are must. On Mondays, one should keep fast after the worship. One should donate silver, pearl, white clothes, camphor, ghee, rice and a pot full of water. Monday fast should commence on first Monday of Shukla Paksha of Jyestha or Shravan month. Those who keep fast on four Mondays in the month of Shravana get benefits of 16 mondays' fast. Monday fast is kept in three ways: 1. On each Monday, 2. Somya Pradosha Vrata, and 3.16 Monday-fasts. On this day one should listen to Katha after worship of Lord Shiva. Remember to take your meal once in the course of day and night. Worship of Mars Mars is also known as Bhoomi-Putra i.e. son of the earth. Devotion towards Mars and his worship, fast, etc. help us achieve conjugal bliss and a peaceful life. Worshipping Lord Hanuman too helps in pacifying Mars. To worship Mars, invoke him with red flowers in your folded hands and recite, "O Lord! Descend here and drive away all our miseries". After this perform his worship as you did for lord Ganesh and then chant and recite mantras of Mars, beej-mantra, Bhoum-Gayatri and Mangal-Kavach. Keep fast on Tuesdays and donate red clothes, copper, lentils (pulse), coral and gold as per your capacity. Fast on Tuesday should be observed with one meal of wheat and jaggery products only. This fast should be kept at least 21 times. On Tuesdays Lord Hanuman should also be worshipped. Worship of Mercury Situated closest to the Sun, planet Budha leaves impact on individuality, learning, sense of hurnour and voice of a person. Invoke planet Mercury with green flower in your folded hands and pray - "O Lord! Come and rid me off my miseries." Now worship him as you worshipped Lord Ganesha. Recite mantras of Mercury and also perform japa, Budha gayatri and Budha Kavach. Observe fast on Wednesdays and donate green-clothes, emerald, bronze-vessels, gold, etc. Fast on Wednesdays should start on first Wednesday of Shukka-Paksha of Jyestha. It must be carried on to at least 21 Wednesdays. Make sure you do have only one meal in the whole day. Worship of Jupiter

Jupiter is best known as the guru of the deities and a scholar of jurisprudence and Vedas. His worship should commence only on a Thursday of any Shukla Paksha. The girls desirous of marriage, whose marriage is delayed or who face obstacles, must perform worship of lord Jupiter. To perform his worship one should keep yellow flowers in folded hands and then pray- 'O Lord Jupiter! Kindty take your seat here and accept our pooja'. Then, perform worship as you did in case of Ganesh and start reciting mantras (of Jupiter), beej-mantra, Brihaspati-gayatri, and Brihaspati-Stotra. At the end of worship donate yellow clothes, grams (pulse), topaz and gold. Observe fast on Thursdays. One should start this fast on first Thursday of Shukla-Paksha and do it at least 16 times or till wish gets fulfilled. Use yellow objects on this day. Banana tree is also worshipped on this day. On days of fast, meal must be without salt. Gram-based meal is advised. Worship of Venus Planet Venus is related to Shukracharya - guru of monsters. With white flowers in your folded hands, invoke lord Venus and pray - "O lord Venus! You are the scholar of all Shastras. Please do come, take a seat and rid us off our troubles". Now commence worship as you did for lord Ganesh and start chanting mantras, beej-mantra, ShukraGayatri, Shukra-Stotra, and Shukra Kavach. Thereafter, donate white clothes, rice, ghee, incensed-objects and cow. Observe fast on Fridays. This fast too should start on first Friday of Shukla Paksha and should be observed on 21 coming Fridays. On this day put on white clothes; offer pudding (made of milk-sugar-rice) to the lord and have it yourself thereafter. Worship of Lord Saturn, Lord Saturn, son of the Sun, is a big-eyed and over-sized god. Sadhesati of lord Saturn casts its impact on everyone's life. Worshipping and fasting for him should be done on Saturdays. During his worship take some blackish flower in your folded hands and pray "O lord Saturn! Do take a seat and rid us off our troubles". Now perform the worship the way you did for lord Ganesha and keep on chanting mantras (of Saturn), beej mantra, Shani Gayatri and Shani Kavach etc. Thereafter, according to your capacity, donate black sesame, black clothes, horse bean (Urad), oil, and gold. Lord Saturn is worshipped on this fast and so donate the items mentioned above as they are his favourite. In the night take Khichari of black horse bean (Urad). Offer the same to others as well. This fast too should commence on first Saturday of Shukla-Paksha and continue the same on coming 21 Saturdays. Worship of Rahu At the time of Samudra - manthan (churning of the ocean) even Rahu tasted some nectar along with other gods. He, too is being offered his share in Pooja from that time only. Worshipping Rahu on Saturdays bears auspicious fruit. With blue flower in folded hands Rahu is invoked - "O lord Almighty Rahu! Do appear and take your seat and free us from all our worries." Now perform his Pooja as you did in case of Lord Ganesha and then chant mantras (of Rahu), beej-mantra, Rahu-Stotra, and Rahu-Kavach. Lastly, donate oil, gold, gomed, and black clothes as per your capacity. Worship of Ketu Rahu and Ketu are called shadowy planets. Planet Ketu is offered Pooja on Tuesday. Worshipping Rahu gives result as one gets in case of Saturday fast whereas Ketu bears fruit like a fast on Tuesday. Start worshipping Ketu with some flowers in folded hands by

invoking him - "O headless, aggressive- looking God! We invoke you here. Please do take your seat and put an end to our miseries." Now perform Pooja as you did in case of lord Ganesh and then chant mantras of (Ketu), Beej-mantra, Ketu-Stotra, and Ketu Kavach. Later on donate blanket, Kasturi (musk), sesame oil and gold according to your capacity. After performing Pooja of all the planets, they are individually given a warm send off (Visarjan). We should apologise to them that if there was any mistake in course of Pooja, Awahan, chanting of mantras and Visarjan, they all should forgive us and finally put an end to all of our miseries. Make it a point to seek guidance of a qualified Brahmin to complete the affair. Yantras of the Planets Every planet or deity is worshipped with Yantras also. Yantras are prepared in such a way that power of the deities concerned is permeated in them. In this age of Kaliyug, everybody wants to achieve every thing by Yantras so that he might earn more profit in less time. Yantras act something like an armour for the mankind. There is no importance of Yantras if they are not prepared and consecrated properly. Yantras are prepared on a sheet of paper or the bark of the tree birch or on a copper, gold or silver plate. Yantras give miraculous results if they are consecrated by an able person. Mantras are used in preparing and charging Yantras. Power of Yantras gets multiplied by Mantra. Accuracy of constellations, dates (Tithis) and combinations (Yogas) should be kept in to consideration while preparing and charging Yantras. Now the question arises that as to which Yantra a native should worship? He should propitiate the fatal or obstructing planet posited in his horoscope by Yantra. The native might be saved from the malefic effect of a planet in its Vimshottori Dasha or Antardasha or Pratyantardasha if he worships the Yantra of the planet concerned by consecrating it. A consecrated Yantra is like a machine in order. So, it is advised to use it very carefully and only for one's own welfare. One, who consecrates a Yantra, should have courage, patience, tolerance and wisdom in abundance. Surya Yantra This Yantra is worshipped to ward off the agonies caused by the Sun. In our country, it is in vogue to cast the Panchadashi Surya Yantra on safe vault on the day of Deepawali right from the ancient times. On it, digits from 1 to 9 are written in such a way that if added, they make 15 from every side. It has been mentioned in the scriptures as to which digit should be written where in Yantras of nine squares. According to Garga and other Rishis like him, one can be free from ailments if he worships these Yantras.

Very often it is asked as to how does the evil effect of planets get glozed by reciting Mantras? By chanting Mantras of a planet we bow with respect to the lord of that particular planet and propitiate Him so that He might shower His benediction on the mankind. We awaken and propitiate the planets by Mantras just as a man talks to us if we contact him on a mobile phone by dialing his number. This must be noted that propitiating the Gods and Goddesses never goes in vain, sooner or later it gives result. Jap and worship of a planet is a very effective measure to propitiate Him. Effect of the Jap of the Mantra of a planet gets multiplied if it is performed before a Yantra. Jap of Qrri Namah Shivay proves to be very much effective if it is performed on a Rudraksha rosary. Likewise, Lakshmiji becomes propitiated if the Lakshmi Pooja and Mantra Jap is performed on a Kamalgatta rosary. Jap of Lord Vishnu is performed on a Tulasi rosary. While performing Jap, one should have control over ethos or conduct, contemplation and behaviour. Yantras are activated by Mantras and the power of Mantras gets multiplied if the Jap is performed before activated Yantras. Gems of Planets Gems should be selected very carefully. Gems are not only meant for adornment but they also bear celestial power in them. They bear unique capability to make the human life prosperous. Some people want to wear gems according to the signs of their names, which is wrong. It is wise to wear gems after getting the horoscope analysed. It is advised to wear the gem of -a benefic planet if it is weak. It will help increase the influence of that planet so that it may give auspicious consequences. Gems are also useful in getting some diseases cured. It should also be kept in mind which gem is prohibited from being worn with some other particular gem. Weight of a gem should be determined according to age and weight of a person. What should be the weight of the gem prescribed for a person? There is no specific method to prescribe the weight of a gem. However, some prevailing (customary) methods are given here under: Weight according to the weight of the native: A gem must be at least of 3 Rattis. But according to most of the scholars the weight should be prescribed according to the weight of the native and that is 1 Ratti for 10 kilos. So, a person of 60 kilos should wear a gem of 6 Rattis. Weight according to the age of the native: Gems of less weight are prescribed to children whereas adults are advised to wear gems of much weight.

A gem should be worn in Shukla Paksha on a specified day at a specified time to have auspicious and perfect result of the same. It should be consecrated by an able person. One should donate things related to the gem the day he wears it. Gems rivals in nature should not be worn together. Details regarding gems are given below: Planet

Relation between a gem and a finger In Palmistry it has been mentioned that every finger is associated with a planet or planets. Our hands and their fingers are a part of the most sensitive TANTRA of planets and the signs of zodiac. Rays produced by planets transmit to our body through different fingers. Gems are used to increase the power of the rays of planets. Gems are able to ward off several diseases and are used as an alternative medicine. Barring diamond, all the gems should be worn in a way that they touch the fingers so that their rays might be transmitted to our body. A table of the gems useful in the treatment of different diseases is given below: Gems Diseases the gem is useful for Ruby Heart disease, eye disease, disorder in blood Pearl Insomnia, heart and eye diseases, tuberculosis, hysteria Coral Fever, small pox, piles, impotence, disorder in blood, abortion Emerald Disorder in intestine, lungs, tongue, weakness in speech and mind Topaz Jaundice, gout, heart disease, impotence, disorder in liver Diamond Diseases related to semen, impotence, blindness Saphire Epilepsy, paralysis, deafness, baldness, disorder in nervous system Gomed Windy disorder, small pox, cholera, skin diseases, leprosy Cat's eye Cancer, asthma, superstition or confusion, paralysis, epilepsy, skin diseases.

Sarhesati of Saturn and its remedies Transit of Saturn is seen from the Janma Rashi of native to know its Sarhesati. Sarhe sati of Saturn starts when Saturn falls in the twelfth house from Janma Rashi while in transit. Saturn stays on a Sign for about two and a half years. It remains for two and a half years on twelfth house, Janma Rashi and second house from Moon sign respectively. These seven and a half years are called Sarhesati. What result will Saturn give to a native in its Sarhesati?

This table of Shubhashubha Gyanam has been drawn out from natural friendship of Saturn. The benefic and malefic impacts of Sarhesati may change according to the difference, if any, between the benefic and malefic positions of the planets in Panchadha Maitri.

It is advised to know the nature of Saturn before going for the remedies of Sarhesa'ti. Saturn is a cruel planet. Its Sarhesati puts its influence on the life of every one. Capricorn and Aquarius are the signs of Saturn. The benefic influence of Saturn reduces when its Sarhesati starts in the life of people of these signs. Saturn does not prove to be much malefic if it is benefic and Yogakark in the horoscope of a person. But its inauspiciousness enhances if it is obstructing, fatal or malefic. Saturn enhances the influence of the houses it is posited in and reduces the influence of the houses it aspects with its third, seventh and tenth viewing. Dispute, enmity, imprisonment, chronic disease, failure, hurdles, bitterness, frustration etc. are also considered by it. People under the influence of Saturn happen to be suspicious by disposition^ clever and cunning and do not expose what they have in their mind. They are sombre by nature. They possess fine imaginative faculty and they happen to be planners of big trades. They are thrifty, tolerant and they love independence. They also happen to be inventors, solitude loving and interested in Astronomy and Chemistry. They love honour. Problem in feet, accident, impotence, windy diseases, diseases in the backbone, cancer, leprosy and obstructions caused by evil spirits are caused by Saturn. Cobbler, blacksmith, carpenter, mechanic, coal dealer, driver, oil dealer, judge etc. are the subjects of Saturn. Saturn is exalted in Libra and debilitated in Aries.

Lord Vishnu beheaded Rahu with his Sudarshan Chakra since he had taken nectar at the time of Samudra Manthan (churning of the ocean). But by consuming nector, he had become Amar (immortal). The head of beheaded Rahu is called Rahu and the trunk is called Ketu. The Janma Nakshatra of Rahu is Bharani and that of Ketu it is Ashlesha. Kala is the deity of Bharani, the Janma Nakshatra of Rahu and Sarpa is of Ashlesha, the Janma Nakshatra of Ketu. This is why the Yoga created by the deities of Rahu and Ketu is called Kal Sarpa Yoga.

PGA NOTE: Most astrological practicioners agree that gems should be used to enhance a person’s good (anuku) planet. But some are should be done to appease harmful (pratikul) planets. We began searching the ancient esoteric books for the preferred method by which jyotish quality gems could be used to appease debilitated or otherwise harmful (pratikul) planet(s), and found that there is indeed one method that has been

prescribed. It is the practice of Ratna-Arpana. Or DONATING a fine gem for a harmful planet to a specified recipient at a specific time with a specific seed mantra. Using this system greatly simplifies the prescription of jyotish gems: For a good (anukul) planet, a gem is to be accepted (worn) For a had (pratikul) planet, a gem is to be donated (given away) It is amazingly simple-gems are appropriate in all cases, but must be used in entirely different ways. Everyone already understands that gems for favorable planets are to be worn, but were uncertain what should be done to appease harmful planets. The ancient texts point the way-donate the gem to a specified recipient, and solve the problem of the harmful planet. Ruby-The Sun’s Gem by Arnav Medhi, B.Com, MBA In the Navagraha system of Planetary Gemology Ruby is the Gemstone that is used to enhance the powers of the Sun. The Sun is the vital life force and represents the Soul of the Kalpurusha.An individual who s Sun is well placed in the birth chart can never be unsuccessful. He will always be in limelight whether as a Union Leader or a statesman. Ruby is not Suitable for everyone. Here we will analyze the suitability of Ruby for the 12 ascendants from Aries to Pieces. Aries Ascendant Sun becomes the fifth Lord and hence is very auspicious. Sun placed in the Ascendant in Exaltation or 5th House in own sign gives miraculous effects. In such cases wearing Ruby will bring in Special benefits especially if one is in Government service. Sun will also give good results in sixth house, 11th house and the 3rd house. Individuals with such placement should go ahead and wear a Ruby. Individuals with Sun in 11th house in Aries ascendant should tie the Ruby on the arm for trial and only after that they should wear the Ruby. Taurus Ascendant Sun is not an auspicious planet for the Taurus ascendant. Even if it is in Exaltation in the 12th House it will not give benefits as may be expected. Secondly it the enemy of the Ascendant Lord Venus. Ruby should be avoided by Taurus ascendant individuals unless Sun occupies a favorable position from the Lunar ascendant. Gemini Ascendant

Ruby should be considered in the Gemini Ascendant if the Sun is placed in the 3rd house or the 11th house and the Sun Mahadasa or the Sub period is running for the individual. Also special notice should be given to the Sun-Mercury conjunction — Budh Aditya Yoga.If the Budh Aditya yoga is occurring in the ascendant, third house, 4th house and the 11th house then both emerald and Ruby we worn by the individual for special benefits. Cancer Ascendant In Cancer ascendant Sun becomes the wealth-controlling planet. The best position for Surya in this ascendant would be in the 10th house. If such a combination is occurring in the chart then Ruby should be worn. Sun s placement in the 9th house, 5th house will also be conducive for wearing a Ruby. Leo Ascendant Sun becomes the ascendant Lord and hence is very auspicious. Sun placed in the Ascendant. 9th house, 5th house and 11th house will bring good benefits if a Ruby is worn. Individuals who are having the placement of Sun as described earlier should wear a Ruby for life. Placement of the Sun in the 3rd and the 6th house should be considered only during major period and sub periods. Virgo Ascendant Individuals with Virgo ascendant should never try a Ruby except under he guidance of a competent Astrologer. The Sun here becomes the Lord of the 12th house and the Sign of Exaltation is occurring in the 8th house. Although a Vipareeta Raja Yoga is caused still Ruby should be avoided. Whatever results the Sun has to give due to its exaltation it will give itself. There is no need to increase its power by wearing a Ruby. Libra Ascendant Libra Ascendant individuals should first see the position of Saturn and Venus. If these two are not well placed only then Sun s position be analyzed for the purpose of Gem stone wearing. Also If the Sun major period is running then Ruby can be considered. Sun in 11th house, 2nd house and 7th house can be considered. Scorpio Ascendant Sun is an auspicious planet for Scorpio Ascendant. It owns the 10th quadrant of Profession and is the friend of the Ascendant Lord. Individuals whose Sun is placed in the 10th House, 5th house, 9th house, 6th house should wear a Ruby. Sagittarius Ascendant Sun becomes a auspicious planet for this auspicious ascendant ruled by Devgum Brihaspati. Individuals who are having Sun in the 5th house, 9th house or the ascendant should wear a Ruby for life. Sun s placement in 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 7th and 10th houses should

only be considered during Sun period. Sun s placement in the 6th, 8th and 11th houses should be avoided completely. Capricorn Ascendant Sun's gemstones should be completely avoided. Firstly it owns the 8th house of losses and accidents and secondly it is the enemy of the Ascendant Lord. Sun Saturn enmity is legendary. Sun is best pacified here by giving arghya or by Surya Namaskar.Sun's placement in 4th, 3rd house can be considered for those who have interest in Occult, alternative medicine. Hatha Yoga or Teevra Sadhanas. Aquarius Ascendant During Sun Mahadasa Ruby be considered only when Sun is placed in 3rd, 7th, 10th or 11th house. First see the position of Venus. Pisces Ascendant Ruby should be considered if Sun is placed in its own sign in the 6th house or in the second house of wealth in exaltation. In rest of the positions it is not necessary to wear a Ruby. When to wear a Ruby: Ruby should be worn on Sunday in Pushya Nakshatra.Other constellations auspicious for wearing a Ruby are Krittika, Uttraphalguni and Uttrashada.The Ruby should be worn in Gold or copper in the ring finger after Prana Pratishtha as the Sun line is found on the mount of Sun located just below the ring finger on the palm. If due to some reason these constellations are not available and it is important to wear the Ruby then use any Shukla Paksha Sunday and wear it in the Hora of the Sun. Caution: Those who wear ruby should not wear a Blue Sapphire. Diamond, Gomedh along with it. The Ruby is a very auspicious Stone and if it suits an individual it gives special position in life. The individual always shines like the divine Surya himself. It is an excellent stone for Government workers, Leaders and Statesmen, Contractors and Healers. The individual is blessed with good health, eyesight, blood circulation and a Glowing complexion. Those individuals in who's chart Sun is not well placed and is giving bad results in the Mahadasa or the Antradasha should donate wheat on Sundays, perform Surya Namaskara. Chant the Surya Gayatri. Recite sage Agasthiya's Aditya Hridya Stotra and Give Arghya to the Sun God. This will ensure peace and Prosperity. Nava-Graha-Stotra By Shri Vadiraja Swamy

May the Sun god, Surya, reveal to us that wisdom of the Highest God (Lord Hari), may the Moon god, Chandra bless us with happiness, may the planetary god Mars (Mangala) provide us with good fortune, may Mercury (Budha-deva) bestow all wisdom, may Jupiter (Guru) make us great, may Venus (Shukra-deva) make us learned, may Saturn (Shani-deva) bless us with well-being, may Ketu (Moon's South Node) grant success, may Kahu (Moon's North Node) relieve us of ill health. May these planets be beneficial to us. May all our wealth, Bhakti, material assets, and wisdom, etc., increase daily. Hail Saturn (Shani) who were born from Surya, who is splendorous with all good qualities, may you destroy our bad karma, and grant our wishes, and free us from Saturn problems, so says Vadiraga. Puranic Quotes ‘against’ Flawed Gems-PGA Special EXERPTS FROM SRI GARUDA PURANA AGAINST THE USE OF FLAWED GEMS: NATURAL RUBY: Sri Suta Goswami said, "A ruby, although genuine, should not be worn if it has strong color banding, excessive inclusions within like numerous internal cracks, a sandy appearance, a rough surface, or is dull and lusterless. Anyone using such a flawed ruby, even out of ignorance, will suffer from disease, or loss of fortune." Chap. 70 NATURAL PEARL: Sri Suta Goswami said, "A pearl of the auspicious quality should be white, translucent, round in shape, lustrous, and of good weight and size." Chap. 69 NATURAL YELLOW SAPPHIRE: Sri Suta Goswami said, "Yellow-sapphires must be evenly colored, flawless and well shaped in order to be considered auspicious." Chap. 74 NATURAL HESSONITE (Karkctana): Sri Suta Goswami said, "Hessonites which are flawed, lack luster, or white or bluish in color are considered inferior and inauspicious." Chap. 75 NATURAL EMERALD: Sri Suta Goswami said, "Emeralds considered inauspicious are blackish, devoid of luster, appearing dirty inside or dried and brittle. Anyone concerned with their own well-being should never purchase or wear any oiled, dyed, or treated emerald. Also, emeralds of mixed colors are strictly forbidden." Chap. 71 NATURAL DIAMOND: Sri Suta Goswami said, "Anyone wearing a seriously flowed or clouded diamond which refracts a reddish glimmer from defective facet edges, will surely be abandoned by the goddess of fortune. A diamond containing red spots will bring ruin." Chap. 68/2 NATURAL BLUE SAPPHIRE: Sri Suta Goswami said, "Blue sapphires and all other gems should never be subjected to burning for improving their color and clarity, as misfortune will certainly befall anyone doing so.” Chap. 72

NATURAL RED CORAL: Sri Suta Goswami said, "A well polished, bright coral with rich, soothing dark-red colors and without flaws is considered very auspicious. It possesses power to increase the riches and wheat supplies of its wearer and also removes obstacles and dangers." Chap. 80 NATURAL RED GARNETS: Sri Suta Goswami said, "As with rubies, garnets colored like the petals of the red lotus are considered the rarest and most beautiful and possess the mystic virtue of increasing both the wealth and progeny of their owners." Chap. 77 NATURAL GREEN JADE: Sri Suta Goswami said, "Among all gems, fine quality jade has the greatest ability to remove negative karmic reactions." Chap. 79 NATURAL QUARTZ CRYSTAL: Sri Suta Goswami said, "Knowledgeable gemologists advise that flawed varieties that are included, fractured, or discolored should be completely avoided." Chap. 76 PGA NOTE: Although in Sri Garuda Purana, Sri Suta Goswami has said nothing about gem choosing methods nor planetary associations (except for alluding to gems for the Sun and Moon), WHAT HE DOES REPEAT IS: "Clarity, quality, purity 1.1.!" Over and over Sri Suta Goswami says to use top quality, flawless gems ONLY! As well as repeating that very flawed gems are actually considered to be harmful! Two bottles of Planetary Herbal “bhasma”, sanctified ashes of Kusa and Durva, Ashes of Kusa and Durva, The herbs for Ketu & Rahu respectively. The Planetary Herbs Information and herb samples courtesy of Dr. Mana Vajracharya, Chairman, the Nepal Ayurveda Association 1 974 A Kavacha or Vedic talisman is not only the gem, which represents the earth element. A real Astral Talisman is composed of all 5 elements, i.e., gem for earth, herb for water, metal for fire, symbol for air, and cosmic number for space. This process of "Panchaamrita" astral talisman making is the most bona fide. Even the Western alchemists are known to use herbs as the "water" ingredient in an Astral Talisman. These herbs have been ritually turned into "bhasma" or sanctified ashes. Therefore, one may understand that the gem alone is not the complete kavacha or talisman, the gems are only for one of five elements, viz., the earth element. Herb for the Sun Sanctified ashed of

Milk Weed (Arka-bhasma) Herb for the Moon Sanctified ashed of Butia Frandosa (Palasa-bhasma) Herb for Mars Sanctified ashes of Couch Plant (Khadira-bhasma) Herb for Mercury Sanctified ashes of (Apamarga-bhasma) Herb for Jupiter Sanctified ashes of Ficus Religiosa (Pippala-bhasma) Herb for Venus Sanctified ashes of Ficus Glomerata (Audumbara-bhasma) Herb for Saturn Sanctified ashes Of Prosopis (Shami-bhasma) Herb for Rahu Sanctified ashes of Cynodon Dactylon (Durva-bhasma) Herb for Ketu Sanctified ashes of Sacrificial Grass (Kusa-Bhasma) The philosopher Agrippa has nicely described in "Three Books of Occult Philosophy" the basic preparation of astrological rings as follows:

" When any star ascends fortunately we must take a stone and HERB that is under that star, and make a ring of the metal that is suitable to this star, and in it fasten the stone, putting the herb or root under it, not omitting the inscriptions of images, names and characters, as also the proper suffumigations." In 1974 Dr. Mana Vajracharya, Chairman of the Nepal Ayurveda Association, explaned which were the main "bhasma" herbs for each planet. The good Dr. prepared nine different herbal bhasmas. It took one week for him to prepare the 9 herbs and transform them into ashes or Bhasma. During each ceremony he chants specific planetary mantras while heating each astralherb in a metal pot. By indirectly burning the herb until the smoking stops,the herbs turn into sacred ashes, called bhasma in Sanskrit. At that time he also gave us rare samples of the actual herbs. Somehow we retained these rare herb samples over the years, and recently we had these nine herbs photographed by an expert. All nine herbs are available in Nepal (Himalaya) and some are quite rare even in India where they often substitute other items because of lack of the actual primary herbs named herein.

Yantras Literally ‘Yantra’ means an instrument. Sanskrit word ‘Yantra’ means ‘apparatus’. It is like microcosmic picture of macrocosm. The Yantra is a geometric design which provides you a focusing point for concentration and meditation. The Yantras are considered highly efficient because they help you do better in contemplation, concentration and meditation and the possibilities of your making mistakes or going astray while meditating also decrease with the smart use of Yantras. As Mantras are recited to attain realization of God similarly visualization or imagination of Yantra is also helpful to attain union with God. Yantras in most advanced phases are used to achieve total silence in mind where mental chatter stops completely. This is achieved by tactics of concentration. You shall have to meditate on one single object like Yantra. This Yantra shall be used till the time your mind achieves aspired silence. After achieving this silence you shall be training yourself to keep your mind empty without the help of Yantra.
