Blue Sapphire, Gemstone for Saturn

Blue Sapphire, Gemstone for SaturnSaturn is given the post of an attender in the solar system. According to Linga Puran, Saturn was born from the extravagant light mass of Lord Rudra and according to Markendaya Purana, Saturn was born to Chhaya, wife of Sun. It moves at extremely slow momentum, and for this reason it is called `Shaneshchar`, which means `a slow mover`. In Indian astrology, Saturn is considered to be malicious amongst the malevolent, but its final effect is felicitous. Plundering man into ill luck and disasters, Saturn ultimately redeems the man. It is regarded the strongest of all planets. Saturn rules the owners of zodiacal signs Capricorn and Aquarius. Blue Sapphire is the gemstone of Saturn. It rules the western direction.

Blue sapphire is a compound of aluminium and oxygen. Due to a little mixture with cobalt it turns blue. It is the gem of Kurundan family. It is available in blue, sky blue, pink and brinjal colours. Blue sapphire found in Kashmir is the best of all, but sadly now it is not obtainable because the government has banished the blue sapphire mines. Blue sapphire found in Sri Lanka is the best- dark light coloured and transparent. But then again, blue sapphire of dark colour and transparency is found only in Thailand and Australia.

Blue sapphire demonstrates its outcome sooner than any other gem. It proves prolific or effective to the wearer. It obliterates sicknesses, mistakes, griefs, poverty and augments food grains, prosperity, strength, glory, life-span and offsprings. It also reinstates lost property, which the wearer may have lost prior to the wearing of blue sapphire. If it proved discouraging, it may make all the efforts and activities futile and may devastate every thing of the wearer.

Blue sapphire is most useful especially to transporters, property dealers, contractors, mill owners, dealers in machines, laborers, hawkers, policemen, workers of local self-government and financers.

It is also believed that it can give peace to a man if it is worn close to the heart. According to a Buddhist monk, wicked thoughts are destroyed and mind as well as behaviour remains gentle by wearing blue sapphire. Decency remains rigid in women who wear blue sapphire. A person, whose zodiacal signs are Capricorn and Aquarius, can wear blue sapphire without much indecision; it can never injure them. However, it must be taken off, if its colour changes or is cracked, because this is a cautionary to the wearer that he should change his gem.

It should be purchased in the evening. It`s weight should be at least 3 Ratti (360 mg). The more the weight, the more is its effects.

How to wear - Blue sapphire should be embedded in silver or fused five metals or iron ring. The ring should be kept in a copper bowl full of water on Friday. It should be worn in the middle finger after pouring water from the bowl on the roots of a peepal tree, two hours before the sunset, narrating "Om sham shanaishcharaye Namah Om". One should pray to Saturn to bequeath the best results and grant help to conquer difficulties. One should donate black urad, salt, mustard oil, soap, tea leaves, money (Dakshina) according to one`s capacity at the feet of a peepal tree and pray for one`s well-being. A male buffalo should also be fed with green leaves and cotton seed and a Shivalingam should be bathed with milk.

The gem continues regulating the man for five years from the time it is worn.

A person whose name starts with -bho, ja, jee, khee, khu, khay, kho, gaa, gee, and people coming under Capricorn and Aquarius with names starting with- gu, gay, go, saa, see, su, say, so, daa, should wear blue sapphire.

An individual born on 8th, 17th and 26th days of any month and born during the period between 15th January to 14th March, can wear blue sapphire. A person whose lucky number is 8 can also wear blue sapphire.

In case if one cannot afford the gem, its sub-gems like Amethyst, blue stone, Bankok Blue sapphire, sangnili etc. can always be purchased. It should be noted that these sub-gems are always advantageous. They never scathes the wearer.
