Astrological benefit of wearing a Blue Sapphire (Neelam)

Blue Sapphire (Neelam) is ruled by Saturn (Shani Dev). Saturn controls our nerves and has quite strong effects on Kundalis. It gives good and bad effects according to your karma or deeds. Its presence is 2nd, 7th, 3rd, 10th and 11th house is considered to auspicious but in 4th, 5th and 8th house it’s inauspicious and may have malefic or bad effects. It controls life, death, wealth, home, children etc. It can bring blessing if auspicious and if inauspicious can create hurdles.

Shani Dev is god of justice and however one can see Saturn (Shani) as ‘Punisher God’ but he balances the karma and deeds. He is born from fire. He is the most feared God in the Hindu Pantheon as he is known for his terrible revenge for whatever made him upset. He is the son of Sun and disciple of Lord Shiva. Lord Shiva gave the privilege to Shani and entrusted him with delivering the fruits of all the beings of the universe on account of the karma done by them. He is considered the king of all planets and is also called the Grahraja.

Remedies to reduce the effect of Shani or Saturn:

Depending upon the placement of the Shani in lagan or kundalini chart there are various measures that could be taken to avoid the effect of Shani:

1. If Saturn inauspicious then one should avoid consuming alcohol and non-vegetarian food.
2. He can feed monkeys, black dog and could offer water or milk to the banyan tree.
3. While taking bath he should sit or a wooden plan or small wooden stool so that the water directly from the body doesn’t touch the ground.
4. He can wear natural flawless blue sapphire (Neelam) depending upon per ratti or per carat weight after consultation.
5. He can go to temple and could worship Lord Shiva ( as Lord Shiva is master of Shani and Shani is great devotee of Lord Shiva)

Gemstone Energization - Why gemstone should be energized ?

Energization of gemstone is a technique by means of which the gemstone is energized by reciting the proper mantra of the ruling planet deity, the process needs to be done by good vedic pandit with proper ritual.

Reason behind gemstone energization

Physical Aspect

The gemstone crystal have its energy vibrations. Now, most of the gemstones from the journey from mines pass through many hands before they reach is for wearing and the people touching these gemstone may bring impurities and impression from there hands and they can effect the natural vibration of the stone. How they can effect the vibration of the stone? The answer is that every person has its aura that can be negative or positive. So, to bring the gemstone spiritually to its natural state it must be energized.

Spiritual Aspect

We have nine planets physically these planets are giant celestial bodies revolving around the sun within the solar system. These planets in vedas has its deity or subtle god. The Sun - surya ( Rigveda describes about the Aditya the manifestation of God), similarly other planetary bodies have their own subtle gods. Chandra Dev, Sukra Dev, Shani Dev, Vrihaspati and others. These gods subtly rules each of the ratna so energization of gemstone means invoking the respective ruling planets god by means of mantra and proper ritual.

So, in short the energization process is purification of gemstones through which all weak or strong impressions of negative vibration  marked on the gemstones are removed  with the help of certain mantras and Vedic ritual.So, energization is performed to enhance the performance of  the gemstone.

Is It Necessary To Consult A Pandit (Astrologer) Before Wearing Gemstone Rings?

This is one of the most common questions that a native has in mind before wearing a gemstone.  

Being an astrologer, I would like to put in front, my honest opinion on this matter. In order to answer this question, we need to know whether a person is buying the gemstone to use in a jewelry accessory only for fashion purpose or she/he want an astrological benefit out of it.

If it is for the later purpose, it is always good to consult a qualified and professional astrologer before wearing a gemstone. There are few gemstones which does not carry much astrological powers like onyx, jade, turquoise, etc. Therefore, some astrologers might say that you may wear these gemstones without a consultation. However, these gemstones do possess numerous healing capabilities due to their chemical compositions which might result in good or worse effects. For example: Aventurine is said to be one of lowest order substitute gemstone for Emerald (Panna) and in astrological views, this gemstone does not have any negative effects. However, in ancient Chinese healing therapies, Aventurine crystals are considered to be very strong & effective healing elements and hence, if a native is not suffering from the specific ailment for which Aventurine is used, she/he might see negative results such as - irritation or itching on fingers, headache, numbness in the wearer's hands, etc.

Therefore, I always suggest to wear a gemstone after thorough consultation of your birth chart from a professional astrologer and even after the advice, test the gemstone's chemical suitability by wearing the ring for a week time.

In case of astrologically significant gemstones such as Sapphires, Rubies, Emeralds, Corals, etc. we always recommend that you get a detailed consultation from the astrologer and only then, you should consider buying or wearing these gemstones because these have powerful astrological effects along with strong chemical compositions which might result in Good or Bad, if worn incorrectly.

Apart from the consultation, it is always recommended that you get your gemstones energized (which is also called Pran Pratishtha) through a vedic pooja by an astrologer or a temple priest before wearing it. In case you wish to do the energization on your own, you may do that by reciting the specified mantras & rituals during the sunrise/sunset of the day when you decide to wear the gemstone. This energization is important in order to remove any negative energies from the gemstone as it travels from the mines, through different gem smiths (karigars), traders and finally reaches your home through a shopkeeper or a courier parcel. Hence, to eradicate any possible negative vibes from the gemstone, it is always suggested to energize the stone before wearing it to get its complete effect.

Significance Of Wearing Ruby & Blue Sapphire Gemstones During Makar Sankranti

Makar Sankranti, which falls on 14th or 15th of January every year, has got huge significance according to the Indian Vedic astrology.  

'Sankrant' or 'Sankranti' are the terms which refers to the transition of Sun from one Sign to another. Makar Sankranti specifically means the day when Surya (Sun) moves in Makar Rashi (Capricorn Sign). Shani (Saturn) is  said to be the lord of Makar Rashi. Hence, Sun is considered to be debilitated (Peedit) when it transits into the house of Saturn, hence becomes very weak.

This is probably, the reason why we experience sudden freeze and cold after Makar Sankranti every year. 

If a person has a weak positioning of Sun in her/his horoscope, then it becomes weaker during this period. A weak sun in a horoscope may result in bad health, loss of wealth, lower social status, loss of power & authorities, etc. In order to curb this situation, one of the best remedy is to wear a natural unheated & untreated Ruby gemstone (Manik) which would prevent the weakening of Sun's effects.

In contrary to this, if a person has a bad positioning of Shani (Saturn) in the horoscope, then this period might probably be the best period to wear a Neelam gemstone (Blue Sapphire) because during this period, Saturn is in an exalted stage and it sets the stage for Neelam to transfer best of its powers to the wearer.

Ruby - Ruling Planet Sun

Blue Sapphire - Neelam

Why Astrologers Consider Gold As Best Metal For Setting Expensive Gemstones?

Astrologers consider  gold as the best metal for setting all expensive stones because it is the metal of the Sun from which all the planets derive their light.

Their view is that the energies of the metal are overcome by the power of the stone and it serves a more or less neutral role to transmit the gem’s influence. Other astrologers point out that the heating nature of gold must be considered in its usage with gemstones. They hold that white gold (gold with silver) or gold with copper are better when the properties of gold may be inappropriate for a gemstone that is cooling in nature. Or they may recommend silver, which is cooling metal and has lunar qualities opposite to the solar nature of gold. In this way effect of gemstone can be modified according to the metals used to set them, which have their own properties. Gold promotes the stimulating, heating and fiery properties of gems. It increases the Agni (fire) in the gem and makes it more suitable for Vata and Pitta constitutions in terms of Ayurveda. It is better for ruby, cat’s eye, yellow sapphire or hessonite garnet and aids in their heating and expansive energy. It can be used for emerald and blue sapphire, which tend to be cooling but only if we want to help balance their effects. White gold has a more cooling effect. Many regard it as preferable to silver, if one wants a good metal conductor that is less heating than gold. It is better for pearl or diamond.

 Gold with copper has neutral nature and can be used for settings in which we do not want to overly increase Pitta, particularly red coral for Mars. Silver increases the sedating, cooling and watery properties of gems, but is not as powerful a conductor of planetary energies as gold. It makes gems more suitable to Pitta constitutions. Substitute gemstones, as their influences are weak, do not require gold and can be set in silver. Vedic astrologers may also modulate the effects of gems according to their colour. For example, a lighter red coloured ruby may be used when one wants to increase solar energy but not aggravate Pitta. Or pink coral may be used if one wants to increase Mars energy but guard against overheating the person.
