Cosmic
Jewels
Introduction Gems are the wonders of nature available in various colors
representing the
quality of the nine planets that influence our earth and living
things,
especially human beings. The sages who lived even before Christ
have clearly
stated the color of the planets and their radiance etc without
any gadgets
by sheer clairvoyance. Incidentally, gems have similar radiance
attributed
to a particular planet. For example, Saturn was represented by
blue
sapphire, Jupiter by yellow sapphire, Mars by red coral etc.
Role of
The Gems In horoscopes, we find that some of the planets have lesser
strength due to
various types of afflictions. In order to offset these
afflictions and to
enhance the strength of the planet, a particular gem is
prescribed like a
medicine to cure the particular deficiency.
