Some New Insights into Wearing of Jewelry

[Khoo Hock Leong]

Hi Learned Members

Here are the insights.

Jyotisha normally only recommend South Sea Pears as a 3rd option for jyotish. They rather recommend fresh water pearls or naturally grown pearls. Both types have a closer link with the significations of the Moon - freshwater rather than alkaline and being domesticated. Also they are round and creamy white, just like the Moon, and even the growth by placing a metallic irritant in the oyster, has something to do with the heart. They also usually have no blemishes becausevof their smaller size, which is good for the Moon.

If you have good Moon and Venus contacts in your chart, then you should should go for the larger, but must be round and preferably peacock colour (a combination of red, blue, green and grey when you look from various angles and also get the iridescent feel). Venus rules the sea, and this piece of jewelry can give you a Raja Yoga.


Aquamarine gives you friendship and also overseas friends. It gives a peaceful life. Some astrologers claim it comex under Venus and Saturn, but that is more for Lapis Lazuli for healing and the occult (Saturn close ties with thr 8th and Venus for the 11th, the latter being this is the only house above the horizon which has something to with gains but no spirituality involved unlike the 9th; Venus likes to show off). Turquoise is also Venus+Saturn stone, giving protection from evils emanating from higher echelons of life, remembering that Venus+Saturn are asuras.

So Aquamarine has more to do with Mars (Hanuman) and Venus (the sea, Lakshmi emanating from the sea). You can also take it that Varuna the lord of the sea helping Hanuman to cross the sea to reach Ravana, and Venus typically represent all water spirits including the sea god.


Agate is the oldest form of stone and existed even before all the other stones. You can typically buy agate of different colours to cover different planets.

Yellow for Sun
Red for Mars
White (translucent) for Jupiter, but if Jupiter is in Aquarius, it acts like for the Moon as well
Green for Mercury
Transparent colourless (like the rock crystal) for Venus
Brown with bands for Ketu
Orange for Rahu (it acts like the orange version of Sunstone, the other colour for Sunstone is cinammon red like hessonite)


You want to open a niche in the industry? Wear the 20 face Rudraksha. The deity is Brahma who holds the knowledge of creation in his hands.

20 divided by 12 is 8, add up the digits you get 2. The 2nd-8th house axis represrnts skills, talents, tappung into the semi-conscious to get the legacy bequeathed to mankind, like vedic astrology.

10x2 gives 20. So from the 10th bhava you end up in the 11th bhava.

10 house is your career and karma. 11 house is gains, knowledge, results, things that can be used by humanity in genera.

Hi Khoo, very interesting information indeed!

I have Japanese akoya pearl necklace which is also small in size(unlike south sea pearl) . Is there any interesting facts about akoya pearls?

And I also bought a nice sized(bigger than green peas) lapis beads necklace without knowing anything about that. Later only I came to know about it’s importance.

Also please share some interesting information about 7 muki Rudraksha!

[ashtalakshmi]

This is not to brag but I also do have beautiful coral beads, Jade bead necklace, ruby beads, emerald beads, sapphire beads, turquoise beads, pearls . For some reason I am extremely fond of these semiprecious beads.

Well akoya pearls are also from the sea but is found in the Sea of Japan where the waters are warm, the pearls are firmer and smaller in eize. Warmth means the nacre has evaporated, just like water has changed to steam. There is an element of the Sunhere, so the colour of akoya pearls is not limited to white.

7 mukhi rudraksha has a combination of Venus and Saturn where Venus is the karaka of the 7th and Satyrn is digbala. It quells the suddenness of the 7th so that one can concentrate on making a living using one's own effort (the Lagna).

Thank you very much Khoo !

I read somewhere that 7 muki Rudraksha is associated with Sun which makes me wonder which is correct.

[Khoo Hock Leong]

7th bhava corresponds to the natural sign Libra where Sun is at its fall. Sun is thus very weak in the 7th, more so than in the 12th.

Many years back, I wrote a post that anyway in a person's chart, 7th to where his Sun is placed, because of the relatively weak sunshine, supports life rather than kill it (you can take the analogy as if the infra-red and ultra-violet radiations have gone down in intensity, which normally is detrimental to all forms of life).

So by putting a 7th face rudraksha, it gives you a not so strong Sun, which sustains you throughout life. That is another way of looking at it.

One of my Chinese Singaporean past colleague around my age who does not know anything about astrology, mentioned that what he find striking about the younger generation is that they are a mixed bag lot. Different grades and varieties .........

I was amazed on his power of observation.

At that time, those born with Pluto in Sidereal Scorpio (1994 inclusive onwards with some moving forward and backward for the years just before) were still not adults, so he was referring to those with Pluto in Sideral Virgo (Mercury ruling) and those with Pluto in Sidereal Libra (Venus ruling).

What are the gems representing Mercury and Venus? They are Emerald and Diamond respectively.

Emerald is the stone that comes with a WIDE price range depending on the quality. They also can come with inclusions or not, the degree of inclusions also vary widely. Other factors which vary widely for emeralds are their cut and clarity.

Diamonds as you know are graded by their 4Cs. Cut, clarity, carat and colour. For Jyotish, colourless, transparent diamonds are superior, which is also the higher end of the colour spectrum, although in the Western and cosmopolitised Eastern societies like Singapore and Hong Kong, red diamonds are also prized but not by Jyotish.

So you can see there are different grades of Mercury and Venus, MORE SO than any other stone anyway.

As you know from my earlier post, the gemstones chosen for Mars, Moon, Rahu and Ketu should be opaque based on a famous Nadi Astrologer book.

These 4 planets based on Nadi Astrology teaching are obstructive, they prevent you from fulfilling your karma obligations (except ketu who can grant you moksha once you can complete all your karma).

Opaque version of their gemstones become in Physics what is known as "blackbodies" (perfect absorbers and radiators) of their respective rays.

So this would help deflect their respective rays, your aura is not contaminated by them because they are perfectly absorbed by the stone, and neither does your body absorb them because the stones are perfect radiators.

Bloodstone, red coral, pearls etc. are examples of stones that should be opaque.....but South Sea pearls being iridescent as mentioned earlier does not condone the principle of the pearl being translucent either : they are separate issues.

Now how about Rahu and Ketu stones? Let's talk about Ketu first.

Ketu stones can be black or dark shades of the Earth or red etc. and opaque but the dividing line (cat's eye) must be clearly visible. Basically it means that although ketu's rays are harmful (that is why an opaque stone), you want to be detached from materiality. The underlying stone details are not important, because whether material or spiritual, we ultimately come from darkness (Shiva), although Vishnu (the light) fashion us from pieces of the darkness through Brahma.

But ketu's stone can be translucent too like the chrysoberyll cat's eye. This is for people who have higher spirituality and is quite clear what aspects of materiality are holding them back, for their own individual particular case, so this stone can help them detach with an accelerative effort, meaning fewer re-births.

Rahu's stone? Its opaque version like the black onyx, engender us to be devoted to God whatever the circumstances. God would take care of us as Yama would record whatever deeds we do on Earth through his aide Chitragupta.

But the translucent Hessonite gives us the vision to think big (and earn more karma through big deeds and actions), yet we still do not have to worry so much about our deeds and actions too, so long we walk on the path of dharma.
