The human body works in harmony with celestial bodies of our solar system. Vedic Astrology caters to this consensus, a science originated 4,000 years ago during pre-Vedic civilisation of ancient India.
During the birth of an individual , there exists a particular planetary arrangement in the universe. This Planetary arrangement may bring dreadful results or wonderful results to the person in physical front but also challenges a person on the mental front. And, these malicious planets may create trouble in the personal and professional life of an ascendant by introducing obstructions in their personal and professional life.
However, in order to abate or emancipate these malefic results , the gemstone which is suggested by the astrologers is to be worn . The gemstone eventually penetrates down inside the human body to dispel all the negative forces that are residing inside.
The gemstones are known to hold effective rays that combat against negative energies and aid a human being to get rid-off these negative forces and eventually spread happiness in their lives.
There are 7 visible and 2 invisible planets in our universe which act upon us throughout our lifetime. Visible Planets – Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, and Saturn Invisible Planets – Rahu and Ketu All the celestial bodies in the universe emit certain energies i.e., magnetic and electric fields. Each planet has its own cosmic colour, vibrations, and influence. These attributes play a significant role in an individual’s life. The planetary arrangement at the time of a person’s birth can have negative or positive effects on his/her lifetime. Gemstones are proven to have similar vibrations, cosmic colour spectrum and energy as that of their corresponding planets which can affect an individual’s life in a similar way. Therefore, they are capable of correcting and balancing planetary setting as the human body reflects and absorbs the rays and vibrations.
