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.
