Question on usage of gems vis a vis Astrology

[Guest guest]

Hi,

Gems are worn based on astrological reasons and as ornaments.

My question is how does one determine which gem should be worn to

strengthen the benefics in the chart?

-- Is it only for the benefics that are weak?

-- Each planet owns two signs..what if the benefic that is being

strengthened owns one good house (1,4,7,10,5,9) and one bad one

(6,8,12)??

-- also, what if strengthening of the planet helps in one area of

life and causes trouble in another?? does one have to wear it and

observe or can this be determine before hand??

-- finally how does one who wears gems for ornamental value

determine what can be worn without causing any negative effect??

does size matter??

 

Hope someone with interest in gemology will chose to answer these,

others kindly ignore.

thanks and regards,

Shantala

Good questions. Since a book or article written over a significant

period of time provides a better opportunity to respond to such a

poignant query, self-promotive ego-aside -- I offer the following:

 

Pt. Harish Johari's book on gemstones in jyotish -- a good general

book with specific information on the gemology aspects

and a crude but less hastily written account than a internet message:

http://www.boloji.com/astro/00314.htm

 

Of course there is a lot more available I am sure on the internet

and elsewhere but while you are waiting, you may wish to peruse

these.
