Sacred Secrets of Planetary Gemology-Choosing a Cat’s Eye based on position and association.

Gem Therapy is miraculous as it holds profound secrets and it is the knowledge of these key secrets that bring in those promised key results. Sacred knowledge possessed by a lucky few and implemented correctly by even fewer people. Some of these secret tenets are so powerful that they are transferred by word of mouth in true Guru Shishya (Teacher Disciple tradition).

Out of the nine planets that affect Human destiny as per Vedic Astrology only Rahu and Ketu do not have the lordship of any of the 12 signs of the Zodiac. Their results get influenced by the planets with which they are posited and the signs in which they are placed. Jyotish Gem selection for shadowy planets is a special skill that requires specialized knowledge and correct implementation.

A greenish golden Catâ€™s eye is especially effective when Ketu is posited in the signs of Mercury- Gemini or Virgo or is posited with Mercury.

In such cases when Mercury is the depositor of Ketu, Ketu acquires many of the characters of Mercury and when a Greenish Golden Catâ€™s Eye Chrysoberyl is selected you are assured of special and extraordinary results. Generally such combinations are seen based on special objectives of the individual.

DESTINY vs. FREEWILL & the power to alter the karmic life map with the help of Jyotish gemstones.

January 8, 2013 by gemstoneuniverse Leave a Comment

DESTINY vs. FREEWILL & the power to alter the karmic life map with the help of Jyotish gemstones.

Karma is action. The choices one makes in life are Karma. Â For example if one is unwell, he has a choice to either go to a doctor or not. The act of going to the doctor is freewill, so even if it is destiny is to fall sick, it is freewill/karma to visit the doctor and overcome this sickness.

So Karma can overcome destiny to a certain extent. Our karma or the choices we make everyday changes our destiny every moment. So in times of difficulty we have a choice to either put it down to destiny and accept these difficulties or take matter in our own hand and try to change the karmic life map using paths that are listed out in the ancient and sacred Vedic texts.

Making Choices At Cross Roads represents Free Will Arriving at Cross Roads represents destiny

The ancient texts list out several paths to overcome difficulties in life, Adorning of gemstones is one of them.

For the paths that are capable of altering the karmic life map click here.

Destiny is forever changing based on the choices we make on a day to day basis. In all situations, life gives us a choice, and based on the choices we make, the destiny changes.

One must also realize that most of us do not even fulfill our destiny because of the choices we make; thereby proving that destiny is subjective to the choices made by us. One can safely conclude that destiny is ever changing, and as per the sacred texts the only 3 things that are pre destined are-the time of birth, the partner for marriage and the time of death.

Planetary Gemology is one such sacred science that offers insight into overcoming difficult situations and altering oneâ€™s karmic life map. To understand how this is possible it is important to understand a little about astrology.

Let us go into the basics of astrology.

A birth chart consists of 12 houses. There are 9 planets according to Vedic astrology.

Aries and Scorpio are ruled by Mars.

Taurus and Libra are ruled by Venus.

Gemini and Virgo are ruled by Mercury.

Cancer is ruled by Moon.

Leo is ruled by Sun.

Sagittarius and Pisces are ruled by Jupiter.

Capricorn and Aquarius are ruled by Saturn.

With the above only seven planets out of the nine planets own signs. The other two RAHU and KETU are shadowy planets and do not rule any sign.

The planets are divided into two groups.

Group 1:

Mars

Moon

Sun

Jupiter

Ketu

Group 2:

Venus

Mercury

Saturn

Rahu

It is important to note that each group of planets own six houses each.

Since the ancient texts state that Ketu is like Mars, and Rahu is like Saturn, they are grouped accordingly.

While analyzing a horoscope one must always remember that the owners of house 1, 5 and 9, which are trine houses and considered the most potent and auspicious houses in oneâ€™s horoscope, are considered the most potent planets.

And no matter what the ascendant any one group, either group 1 or group two, will own these planets. That is to say that if the ascendant or house number 1 is owned by say Mars, then houses 1, 5 and 9 will belong to the group that has Mars that is the first group.

Let us analyze this by ascendants.

In the Aries ascendant, the 1^st house is owned by Mars, the 5^th house is owned by Sun and the 9^th house is owned by Jupiter. Note that all the 3 planets belong to the same group.

In the Taurus ascendant, the 1^st house is owned by Venus, the 5^th house by Mercury and the 9^th house by Saturn, again all the three planets belonging to the same group.

In the Gemini ascendant, the 1^st house belongs to Mercury, the 5^th house by Venus and the 9^th house by Saturn.

In the Cancer ascendant, the 1^st house is owned by Moon, the 5^th house by Mars and the 9^th house by Jupiter.

In the Leo ascendant, the 1^st house is owned by Sun, the 5^th by Jupiter and the 9^th by Mars.

In the Virgo ascendant, the 1^st house is owned by Mercury, the 5^th house by Saturn and the 9^th house by Venus.

In the Libra ascendant, the 1^st house belongs to Venus, the 5^th house to Saturn and the 9^th house to Mercury.

In the Scorpio ascendant, the 1^st house belongs to Mars, the 5^th house to Jupiter and the 9^th house to Moon.

In the Sagittarius ascendant, the 1^st house belongs to Jupiter, the 5^th to Mars and the 9^th to Sun.

In the Capricorn ascendant, the first house belongs to Saturn, the 5^th to Venus and the 9^th to Mercury.

In the Aquarius ascendant the first house belongs to Saturn, the 5^th to Mercury and the 9^th to Venus.

In the Pisces ascendant the 1^st house belongs to Jupiter, the 5^th house to Moon and the 9^th house to Mars.

From the above analysis one can understand that in all the cases the trine house lords belong to the same group.

No matter what the ascendant is, the group that owns the three trine houses, i.e. the 1^st house, the 5^th house and the 9^th houses will own 6 out of the 12 houses in a horoscope.

This shows that 50% of life is taken care of by the planets that are favorable in a horoscope.

This is where the Vedic science of Astro-gemology comes into play.

Impact of Light On the Human Body

BY strengthening the favorable planets by wearing their respective gems, one can empower them to fight against the malefic and negative effects of the unfavorable planets. For example, during the Major period of planets that are unfavorable in oneâ€™s horoscope, one should strengthen the Lagna lord, or the lord of the ascendant house, which will ensure protection during these malefic periods.

There are even cases, where even though the planets of the trines are strong, but the DASHA or Major period is one of the enemy group, and the planet whose dasha is operating is placed powerfully, in such cases even gemstone of the planet can be considered, although after careful analysis by a competent Astro-gemologist.

Through the help of astrology one can understand that although certain aspects of life are decided by the Gods at the time of birth, God has also empowered us with free will to make choices in life that can overcome many difficulties through the adorning of favorable gemstones.

For gemstones to work, the most important conditions are that the gems have to be fully natural, unheated and untreated and should be free of the flaws mentioned in the ancient texts.

Use of Emerald in Mercury’s 8th house position in Gemini & Virgo Ascendant as per Vedic Astrology

January 7, 2013 by gemstoneuniverse Leave a Comment

Use of Emerald in Mercury’s 8^th house position in Gemini & Virgo Ascendant as per Vedic Astrology

Mercury in the 8th house is capable of giving Spiritual Knowledge

Can people with 8^th house Mercury wear an Emerald?

Natural Colombian Emerald of 4.60 carats Gemstoneuniverse

The 8^th house in Vedic Astrology is generally considered an inauspicious house that delivers adverse results. Among many other things connected with the 8^th house are losses, accidents, end of longevity, obstacles but also are capacity of investigation into secret knowledge, acquisition of occult powers, capacity to follow a tough and an a consuming spiritual regimen, development of 6^th sense, treasures from underneath the earth.

The single planet capable of giving good results in the 8^th house contrary to what is written; copied and pasted numerous times is Mercury- The planet of business, finance, intelligence and communication. We have statistically observed over the course of many years and analysis of several charts that if Mercury is posited in a good sign or is with a significant planet it gives very good results.

Mercury makes the individual a sharp witted individual and an investigator. If Mercury receives the aspect of the 5^th lord or aspects from Venus or Jupiter, Mercury blesses the individual with occult knowledge, can make one an expert numerologist, astrologer etc. It also blesses the individual with a keen sense of observation and blesses the individual with proficiency in Mantra, Tantra and other occult streams.

Mercury in 8^th position also gives success in forging business partnerships.

Use of Emerald in Mercury’s 8^th house position in Gemini Ascendant:

Mercury is a Key and Significant planet for the Gemini Ascendant as it becomes the ascendant lord which controls all health matters and personality and the 4^th house of real estate, pleasures, mother and comforts in life. Being the lord of two quadrants it has directional weakness and hence needs to be given strength. If it is posited in the 8^th house it shall be posited in the sign of Capricorn which is ruled by its intimate friend Saturn. As stated earlier Mercury shall give good results one can wear an Emerald throughout life.

Use of Emerald in Mercury’s 8^th house position in Virgo Ascendant:

In Virgo ascendant again Mercury is a Key planet as it owns the ascendant and hence health matters and personality and the 10^th house of career and profession. Both these quadrant houses give it directional weakness and because it is a key planet it needs to be given strength. If it is posited in the 8^th house it shall be in the house of its enemy Mars but still mercury shall still over ride Mars and should specially be considered for giving strength by wearing an Emerald if Mercury major period or Mercury sub period is in operation.

Remarkable relief and results by using a Blue Sapphire/ Neelam during Sade Sathi/ Saturn Cycle

January 1, 2013 by gemstoneuniverse Leave a Comment

Remarkable relief and results by using a Blue Sapphire/ Neelam Â during Sade Sathi/ Saturn Cycle

Natural Blue Sapphire of 2.75carats Gemstoneuniverse

Perhaps one of the most complicated, pressure creating and trying transits among all planetary transits is the Sade Sathi â€“The Seven and half year Saturn Cycle. The Saturn cycle starts when Saturn enters the 12^th position from the natal moon and operates till Saturn exits the sign second to the moon.

Some of the General Malefic results faced in the Sade Sathi are:

1) Lack of Direction and drive.

2) Unnecessary expenditures.

3) Pertinent delay even in small tasks.

4) Running Pillar to post.

5) Ill Health and aches and pains. Especially in Back, Knees and areas below the knees.

6) Weak Gastric system and problem of acid reflux.

7) Test of relationships and pressure on interpersonal relationships.

8. Lack of recognition and ill repute, being blamed for false things.

9) Lack of opportunities for career growth.

10) Lack of wealth and increase in debts Karmic as well as Material.

Individual results shall vary as per Saturnâ€™s position in the horoscope.

Even though there are remedial measures to pacify Saturn many errors creep in the Karmic Life Map and hence the individual gets little to no relief.

In many such cases we have observed that if an individual wears a Jyotish Blue Sapphire that is free from any flaws as indicated in the sacred texts and advised after accurate analysis of the horoscopes, the positive results are very forthcoming. The relief is felt almost instantaneously by the grace and blessings of Lord Saturn through the Blue Sapphire.
