Each planet is determined by a specific gemstone and, thus, nine gemstones are related to the nine planets. What is your lucky gemstone according to your Zodiac sign?
There is a strong relationship between the human body and celestial bodies of the solar system. The movement of these planets in relation to each other has a consistent effect upon us through our lifetime. There are methods that can balance and enhance our past life actions through meditation, physical exercise (such as yoga), medicine, color therapy, prayers, and wearing of gemstones.
Astrological Horoscope is the planetary arrangement of all planets present in the cosmos at the time of our birth, placed with varied degrees of benefic, malefic or neutral results in our horoscope. The placement of all planets in any horoscope can be calculated and mapped with the astrological horoscope at the time of birth that originate due to the actions of our previous birth. It is believed universally that your past life actions are not eternal and they can be modified with Astrology and gemstones.
Gemstones and Vedic Astrology have a very close bond since spiritual rituals from the sacred books have incorporated gemstones to restore the balance of energy fields, peace of mind to strengthen love and security of relationships.
Our ancestors considered methods to combat the evil effects of negative cosmic influence by discovering the theory of gemstones. Gemstones emit positive astral light that neutralizes the negative pulls of the planets. Another striking feature has been revealed in Vedic Astrology about gemstones - when they are placed in direct contact with our skin, with the correct weight, they are very beneficial and have healing properties.
When we wear a gemstone related to a planet, it enhances the vibrations and aura of the planet in our horoscope. There are numerous opinions among astrologers in Vedic Astrology about the selection of gemstones, and several factors, such as the following, are considered in the selection:
Vedic Astrology is considered to be the mirror of the ancient scriptures ‘Vedas’ where profound information about gemstones is based on the fact that the nine celestial planets and their constellations in the cosmos represent energies. Every planet releases its own particular colour, energy, wavelength and the transmission of all these properties influences everyone’s life.
