Guest guest Posted March 19, 2002 Report Share Posted March 19, 2002 Hi Rick, Many thanks for sharing the wonderful link. Love it! I feel its one of the best. Do you happen to know anything about Nav Ratnas? They are the rings with 9 gem stones set in gold (for the 9 planets). Would be grateful if someone can shed some light or information on Nav Ratnas, thank you. By the way, does anyone here happen to own and wear a Nav Ratna? Do you feel its helped you?

Guest guest Posted March 20, 2002 Report Share Posted March 20, 2002 Namaste Rick, Just been surfing around the great url you'd posted for Leopard Skins and its absolutely fantastic! Found information on "Navaratnas". I am amazed how thorough the site is. One of the best. Copied a snippet for those who may be interested: http://www.p-g-a.org/talisman.html "Ayurvedic Astrological gems, especially when combined in nine gem bangles (navaratnas), are a uniquely powerful way to mitigate and nullify the unpleasant effects of past wrong actions (negative karma). Astrological jewelry, whether in the form of bangles, rings, bracelets, or necklaces, when made and worn correctly, can potently benefit a person's psychological tendencies, physical health, business affairs and relationships, while helping to minimize the impact of a wide range of negative conditions and situations. Prices on request. By Nick Hodgson of Ayurvedic Astrological Jewelry, USA" ================ Aum Ganesh, Sy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 20, 2002 Report Share Posted March 20, 2002 Hello Sy, Maybe you can set me straight on this but I thought it wasn't advisable to wear gemstones not specifically prescribed for you according to your chart. I read something similar somewhere about the 'dangers' of wearing Navaratnas. I am as interested though on whether it is possible to wear these or not. Find below some other US Vedic navaratnas related sites: http://www.jyotisha.com/GemElixirs.htm (essences) http://www.planetarygems.com/pendants&navaratnaspage.htm http://www.astrogems.com/faq21.htm http://www.astrogems.com/navaneck.htm http://www.agt-gems.com/AGTagt/agt-navaratna.html And in India: http://www.vedicsolutions.com/navaratnaseting.htm http://www.astralgems.com/navratna.htm Best wishes, Rick , "syzenith" <syzenith> wrote: > Namaste Rick, > > Just been surfing around the great url you'd posted for Leopard Skins > and its absolutely fantastic!

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2002 Report Share Posted March 21, 2002 Namaste Rick, To the best of my knowledge, Navaratnas are suitable for anyone worn on the middle finger of the right hand. I have not actually heard of any damage. In South India, Nav Ratnas are made and collected at a pre-determined hour and taken to a Ganesh temple for a special Puja performed by a priest to bless them. This is usually done on a Wednesday. Of course it is always best to consult a Jyotish practitioner. However I have never heard of any negative effects from those I met who own NavRatnas. Hence the curiousity and initial question in my other post.

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2002 Report Share Posted March 21, 2002 Hi Rick, Me again, I forgot to thank you for posting links for various other sites for gems and Nava Ratnas, much appreciate them and will scour through them gradually. Shall get back on the subject when I find something of relevant interest.
