Vedic Planetary Gemology

There are 9 planets used by Vedic astrologers. Here they are listed with their main gemstone correspondences--navaratnas--as follows:

Mars (Gem = Red Coral) |information on this Gemstone |

Mercury (Gem = Emerald) |information on this Gemstone |

Jupiter (Gem = Yellow Sapphire) |information on this Gemstone |

Venus (Gem = Diamond) |information on this Gemstone |

Saturn (Gem = Blue Sapphire) |information on this Gemstone |

Rahu (Gem = Hessonite) |information on this Gemstone |

Ketu (Gem = Cats Eye) |information on this Gemstone |

The outer planets of Neptune, Uranus, and Pluto are not used in ancient classical Vedic astrology.

The main gems for these 9 planets are called the "navaratna", meaning 9 jewels, and the substitute gems are called "uparatna".

The substitute gems are not as powerful but can be so if used in larger weights.

However the precious gems are precious for a reason,

as they are more powerful and they more fully manifest the powers of the corresponding planets.

Call for a consultation to design a pendant or ring as an astral talisman

which can noticeably improve your energy and life.
