How is my lucky gemstone decided?
In Vedic astrology your safest, most beneficial stone is your "life stone" — the gem of your Ascendant (Lagna) lord. The stones of your 5th and 9th house lords (the lucky trine lords) are also auspicious. This tool reads your real chart and gives you that classic, safe set, rather than just your Sun-sign birthstone.
Which gemstones should I be careful with?
Blue Sapphire (Saturn), Hessonite/Gomed (Rahu) and Cat's Eye (Ketu) are powerful, fast-acting stones — wear them only after a qualified astrologer tests them against your chart, ideally trying the stone for three days first. The Ascendant-lord life stone is the safest to start with, and a matching Rudraksha is gentle and safe for everyone.
On which finger, day and metal should I wear it?
It depends on the planet. For example Yellow Sapphire (Jupiter) is worn on the index finger in gold on a Thursday morning; Pearl (Moon) on the little finger in silver on a Monday; Ruby (Sun) on the ring finger in gold/copper on a Sunday. This tool gives the exact finger, metal, day and mantra for each stone it recommends.
Is a Rudraksha better than a gemstone?
A Rudraksha is gentler and safe for almost everyone, while a gemstone is more powerful but must match your chart correctly. If you're unsure or can't get a stone tested, the matching Rudraksha is the safer choice — this tool lists the right mukhi for each planet.
