Hi,
I received a Siddhi mala from Rudrakshanepal.com and it was on red thread. i took it out of the box and chanted the mantra for Shiva as directed. We are in a drought and there was a water restriction. So I said, "Shiva, make it rain, please."
Rain it did-totally unexpected per the weathermen. Messed up some Memorial Day weekend picnics as well.
It is an amazing piece. The thread broke three times while in India however. I think red is good for rudraksha-just based on the results.
