Comments	There is always a force that can propel you forward. There is faith and then there are the natural gemstones â€“ one of the easiest methods of tilting the cosmic forces in your favor. This is a way that does not require you to perform complex rituals. Just accept your talisman with faith and respect and its good to go. Featured today is a Natural Ceylonese Blue Sapphire Menâ€™s ring. The cushion cut gem of 2.25 carats has an intense sky blue with violet tones and is set in sterling silver. Untreated, fully natural Blue sapphires have a lot of power and according to Vedic astrology can make very significant changes in an individualâ€™s destiny. Blue Sapphire or Neelam as it is known otherwise is also basically corundum (Aluminium Oxide) which gains the color blue due to the presence of traces of the element titanium. The legendary Kashmir Blue Sapphires have been the best Blue sapphires known to mankind, but unfortunately indiscriminate mining led to complete exhaustion of the yield. They are now the stuff of legends actually and possibly reside in the private colections of connoiseurs. The richness of its color makes it stand out absolutely. Now the best blue sapphires come from Sri Lanka or Ceylon.

Comments	It is the wonderful substitute gem that can be used in place of Blue Sapphire to harness the powers of Saturn Iolite. The stone derives its name from the greek word ios meaning Violet, which is its characteristic color. Featured today is a beautiful pear shaped natural Iolite from Madagascar, free from any treatment whatsoever. This beauty with an appealing bluish violet color and good clarity is set in Sterling silver as a pendant. Iolite is great healing stone and is believed to alleviate a number of health issue from the greatly discomforting bloating and water retention to helping in case of hyper anxiety and stress. The gem is pleochroic so to say that it exhibits a slightly different color from the different angles of viewing the gem, largely due to the refractive properties. Iolite is known as Neeli and is the gem of Saturn’s consort. It is a gem that is highly favoured by the soothesayers and clairvoyants as it is known to sharpen the intuitive powers in individuals. It is a favoured gem for getting a balanced understanding of life and self thus fostering a greater harmony within the being. It should be noted that Iolite is comparatively less hard than a Blue sapphire and care must be taken while handling this stone.

Wearing a natural emerald works by channelizing this restless creative energy into good work by generating opportunities.

Mercury is the planet that determines one’s intellect. It is interesting to note that moon is the significator of the “Mind” but it is Mercury or Budha that determines an individuals ability to discriminate and make choice between good and bad options.

Incidentally, Mercury is the son of Moonâ€¦implying that intellect is born of the mind.

Comments	There is something refreshing about the color green. It is not for nothing that it is regarded as one of the most soothing colors. Featured today is a customized men’s emerald ring : a beautiful natural, untreated Colombian emerald set in 22 karat gold. The multiple prongs give it a unique design element altogether. Mercury or Budha in Vedic astrology is the Planet of communication, speech, accounting and numbers. A gem that is every businessman/ trade person’s companion, the emerald or Esmeralda or Panna or Zammrood as it is known in Persian is a powerful medium that channelizes Mercury energies. The people who have strong Mercury in their chart exhibit a lively aura, sharp intellect, quick wittedness. They are marked by a strong need for something to occupy their senses strongly. The tendency to get bored quickly is pronounced.

Comments	There is one truth about almost every individual and that is a deeply felt but hardly ever overtly expressed desire to shine. To stand out among men by virtue of some achievement and action!

We take a leaf from the Book of Possiblity that the Sun scripts everyday as he shines and nurtures life to tell you that there is subsatnce in all men to shine brilliantlyâ€¦all it takes it belief and courage.

Representing these and more powers of the Sun is this lovely natural and untreated ruby from Mozambique. Weighing 1.01 carat, this tiny oval parcel with fine color and clarity, packs in a punch as it is a completely saatvik, jyotish quality gemstone capable of harnessing the glorious powers of Surya or Sun for you.

The shanks are in silver with the symbol of the Sun standing in relief and the gemstone of the sun â€“ ruby, sits ensconed in gold seeting as should be! Uniquely implemented planetary gem therapy.

The Montepuez region of Mozambique has become hugely popular for the good quality ruby it produces. After the relative unavailability of the famed Burmese rubies, the traders have explored alternative geographies looking for this treasure of the Sun.

The photograph of the Mozambique ruby featured here is one taken by Vincent Pardieu, a demigod in the area of gemology and exploration for gems. The featured stone is a large silky ruby from Montepuez which weighed nearly 40 grams.
