There is a differenee of .oplnion


regarding the substitute gems for Gomedak. Generaliy the substitute or Coral, Gomedak and the Cat's Eyes are not advised. firstly because they are not that much costly as to

Our revered Guruji l-ate Prof. K.S. Krishnamurthy has guided in the lllrd Readei. that only when the sub-lord of the Ascendant andior 1 I th cusp are NOT AT ALL conRecied to houses 6th, or 8th or 1 2th, then the Gems indicated by them can be used. He further
clarifies that in case either of the sub iord happens to be signifcator of 6th or 8th or 12th the the Gems, Meta], Colours etc indicated by them should not be used.

cther these substitutes have not proved to be that much effective, based on my personai
experience.

As an aiternative when the minute calculation can not be done then has guided that the sign of the Ascendant only be hoted and the gems be seiecied a.^:,utngly.

To Understand the principle for prescription of the gems the sugge$tions made by Prof . K.S.Krishnarnurthy with some additioi"rai informations are tabulated as foilows in an easy manner.

Noie(*) With Difference of Opinions the rulership oi Turquoise is assigned to Venus

as well are available mainly in three colours Sapphires as Saturn by Astrologers. Since the -'colours. Generally, as mentioned- in the table the rulership differs depending on gamelogy. it to Astro Sciences and is used context to whenever the term Sapphire princlple governed by Saturn. in the which is But is referred to as Blue Sapphire, classification should be done categorically and the prescription be made.

Hence keeping in view the basic principle given to us that the lord of the gem should in no way connected to 6th or 8th or 12th drouse,;vve'should for the best services to the humanity through his divine science, prescibe. (a) the white sapphire for Virgo Ascendant as the lord of the gems Venus owns / rules the houses 2nd (wealth and family) and the 9ih house indicating the Bhagya.

(b) for

Libra Lagna the Lapus Lazuli can also be prescnbed which rs governed by Saturn, the Yogakaraka for the Libra Lagna - with a clear exception that Satur:n should not be either
20

placed in 6th or 8th or 1 2th house nor it

is in the star/sub of planets owning or occupying the 6th or 8th or 1 2 th house / cups.

(c)

For Aquarius lagna the yellow sapphire be prescribed which is governed by

the planets owning or occupying the 6th or 8th or 12th house. ln alternative the gems prescribed as per rising sign in Ascendant read with the above discussions/arguments and the benefits bre derived. ln addition the following may also be tested which I have found to be beneficial to the native(s) at various occasions and whenever I have prescribed them it has revealed good results.'{a} the gem indicated by the sublord of l Oth cusp be saf ely prescribed in case it is significator of 2nd and 6th and 'lOth and 11th house and in no way connected of the Bth cups to have uninterrupted service and favqurs frcm superiors. ln case the sublord of l Oth cusp is connected with 3rd and gth and 12th but not to 8th cusp then erren gem should not be prescribed because it rnay lead of frequent
t ra

Jupiter, who is lord of 2nd {wealth and family) and 1'!th (fulfillment of desires and gains) houses. White sapphire equally suits them as Venus, the governor of .the gem is 'owning 4th {happiness, assets etc.) and 9th {the, house denoting the destiny or bhagya).

(The prescription of Garnet, substitute Gem for Sun's Ruby is nbt understandabrle

rather clear, for Capricorn Lagna as the Sun rules the 8th house and it goes against the principai of dictum provided by Prof,K.S. Krishnamurthy. lt should have been either the Gems of Venus, rry.hrch rules over 5th. the

nsfe rs

Gyana, and the 1 Oth, the house for name and fame and Karma, or of Mars which rules over the 4th house denoting happiness. assets etc.; and 1 1th house denoting fulfillments of desires, gains etc.; instead of the Garnet the gem of the Sun. The Savants of astrology may please 4nalyse it and guide.

ib)

and 1 'lth then the gem indicated by that sublord be prescribed to have good financial and business benefits, provided " it is not connected to 5th house denoting

of 11th is connected with 2nd and 7th

For business people. in case the sublord

lhave personally prescribed, the


Gomedak to Kumbha lagna/Rasi persons and .cat's eyes to Scorpio lagna/Rasi born per:sons in accordance to dictum in chapter 6, Stranza 2O of Uttat Kala-amritam.by Sage Kalidas,

gain to partner and opponent, and Bth house denoting finance of the partner(s) and opponent.

(as I am of the opinion that our Guruji has simplified and adopted some of its dictums at many places) and have found them beneficial of the wearer.
Summarisingly, while prescribing gems
th.e preference should be given

Precisely the prescription of gems should be done after tholough and detailed analysis of horoscope and in accorrJance to the needs of the native telling him frarrkly and the adverse nature it may affect in, as every'house becomes 8th house to one or other house in the horoscope.
At last, it is to state the Gems be worn only on the day ruled by the corrcerned gems lord and in its Hora, preferably when the Moon is travelling the star area and the sub area ruled by the Gem lord.
Good Luck. OM TAT SAT
