How To Select The Right Gemstones To Wear?


Welcome to the world of gemstones! This colorful world indeed provides you with a lot of options to choose from. But the question always remains the same which one should you wear? Of course, you might want to wear your birthstone. You might even choose the stones based on beauty or color or one might even select something according to its healing properties. But is that the right way?

Gemstones are considered as a means to combat planetary issues and defects but they are also the ones that are the most misunderstood. It is often seen that people wear a gemstone without having proper knowledge about the same. When you should wear gemstones? Why you should wear gemstones? Is wearing gemstones good or bad for you? These are some of the questions that one must have the answers to before making a gemstone an integral part of your life.

If you go to an astrologer and they prescribe you the gemstones, it is often seen that many of us tend to take their advice and wear that gemstone. But sometimes what happens is you often go by the things you hear from friends or family. Like for example, it is very commonly heard that if you are not feeling well wear a pearl; if you are feeling angry wear Corals; if you are facing any financial issues you can resort to wearing Emerald or Pukhraj (Yellow Sapphire) as Jupiter is the ruler of wealth in the horoscope. But is that even real? Many times, in life you will come across people wearing 4-5 stones in their hand? Does that mean that all their planets are in alignment?




So how does this work?

Gemstones are always to be prescribed after seeing the condition of a planet otherwise the results could be not so fruitful for some people. The gemstones you wear should align with your aura, only then you will be able to see the desired results. You should analyze your horoscope to know whether the gemstones are good for you or blocking all your doors and stopping you from moving ahead in life.


So, let us begin by answering a simple question for you:

How does gemstone work?

It is often noticed that some people like to resort to their astrological charts before choosing a gemstone while others do this selection based on their liking. If you are a master of your choice then we recommend you to do some research before making a gemstone a part of your life. But, on the other hand, if you are into the astrological procedure, before choosing a gemstone here is what you should keep in mind while selecting the correct stone for you:

It is often known that if some planets do not suit our life and are known to bring some obstacles in our astrological chart, wearing a gemstone will fix that and will help conquer that planet. But is that the truth? You will be surprised to know that it isn't the case. Gemstones increase the potential of a planet whether good or bad. So, if a planet is good it becomes better and if a planet is bad it will further worsen the case.

There are functional benefic and functional malefic planets, there are normal benefic and normal malefic planets in your horoscope, and there are time-bound benefic and time-bound malefic planets in your horoscope. All you got to do is that you have to carefully identity, read, and analyze and then only come to a conclusion of whether to wear a gemstone.



Now before going ahead, let us talk about a few cases where people are generally driven to wear a gemstone and they should not!

1. People are generally drawn to wear a gemstone when they find out that some of their planets are malefic. But should you do that? The answer is no! Wearing a gemstone knowing that your planet is malefic will only give power to the negative energy of that planet. This will only tend to destroy your life and push you towards negativity.


2. The next scenario is when a planet is weak and the planet is negative. So, if a malefic planet is weak it is good for you. It is acting like a vaccine for you. It will work as immunity for your horoscope. It might be that you are facing certain issues because of that planet or that planet might be making you uncomfortable. Then there are other ways of pushing those problems away from your life. You cannot just wear a gemstone of a malefic planet and expect to get things fixed.


3. The third scenario is when the planet is neutral. In such a case you have to check whether a neutral planet is giving you a good result or a bad result. If the planet is giving you good results you can wear the gemstone if the planet is giving you a bad result you cannot wear it.


4. The fourth scenario is when the planet is strong and positive and is already giving you positive results. This is the worst case to wear a gemstone. Confused? We will explain it better with the example. Think of a person having sugar and still consuming excess sweets. This will result in nothing but the person ending up having diabetes. I hope we made our point clear with this. When things are already good don't be greedy for the better, with gemstones it might even turn bad for you!


5. The fifth scenario and the only case where you should wear a gemstone is where a positive planet, a functional planet is weak. But still before wearing one you have to see that in the horoscope that the planet shouldn't fall into a house where it has a possibility of becoming negative.


The planet has to be benefic and weak, to wear a gemstone. This is the one favorable case where a person should be thinking of wearing a gemstone. Now that we have laid down the scenarios for you, we hope it will be easier for you to decide whether to wear a gemstone or not. But the question remains, how to find out which gemstone is right for you?


Picking a gemstone by intention


The easiest way to choose a gemstone is by deciding which area of your life you want to improve, then pick a gemstone that resonates with this intention. As we all know each gemstone has unique properties that change our energy field in different ways. For example, if a person is interested in self-development, protection, or general well-being, multiple gemstones can be found whose energy aligns with the desired intention.

Once you've decided on what you want to achieve by wearing the gemstone, you can go on looking at the various properties that different gemstones have to offer. But while choosing a gemstone with this scenario there might be a problem that may arise. What if you don't know what is that that you want to achieve though? Worry not we bring you a solution to that as well!

If such a situation arises then we recommended for you to choose the gemstone which resonates with your chakra. Now before going further let us throw light on what are these chakras and how can they affect our lives?

Chakras are spiritual energy centers that are often depicted as spinning wheels. If our chakras are open, they help by keeping us healthy and balanced, but problems arise if our chakras are blocked or unbalanced. Gemstones have the power of helping us deal with these Chakra blockages. We have seven main Chakras that are believed to align with our spine through to the top of the head. They are linked to our nervous system and major organs, as well as our psychological, emotional, and spiritual being. Each Chakra is connotated with a different color and thus has different stones associated with each. By identifying which Chakra is to be unblocked or needs to be balanced, you can determine the best gemstone which will help you.





Understanding Gemstones better

It is often seen that people choose to wear a gemstone according to their sign or according to where the sun is in their horoscope. It is not the correct way. Determining the right gemstone for an individual is not an easy task. All this requires a careful study by a learned astrologer. The positions of the planets affect various aspects of a person's life such as relationship, marriage, love, etc.

Choosing a gemstone can sometimes be a difficult task even with the experts. This process becomes more tedious especially when one is using gemstones for planetary benefits. Once we have decided whether we are choosing to wear a gemstone or not, then the next task comes to finding a good quality gemstone.

We have talked a lot about how to select a gemstone by consulting an astrologer or analyzing your astrological chart. Now let us talk about the readers who do not believe in the astrological drill and would like to pick the perfect gemstone for themselves. For those readers here's what they can do before selecting the perfect gemstone for themselves.

While figuring out which gemstone is the right fit for you, let us begin by answering the following questions first:

  • Whether you want to wear precious or semi-precious gems?

  • Would you want to wear your gemstone every day or occasionally?

  • Are you looking for a "statement piece" of gemstone full of color or clarity?

  • What size gemstone are you planning to wear?


After all these basic questions are answered the search for the right gemstone then begins! We are often drawn to particular gemstones at different times in our lives. Whilst sometimes it's simply because we like the color of the stone or the way the gemstone sparkles, and sometimes it is because the stone contains natural healing energy and properties that offer the healing that we require at that time. Reading about the gemstone and ways to select the right one for you will help you to understand the attraction it holds for you.
