There are several methods of choosing the right gemstones. The best way is to find the key planets that will control an individual`s life and then see their position in the chart. If they are favorably placed one should wear the gemstone of that planet. The unfavorably placed planets can be pacified by chanting their mantras and stotras. Performing remedial measures and wearing stone for a particularly planet helps increase the positive aspects of the planet in the horoscope. Scientifically, recital of Mantra for a particular planet forms a protection layer around man. Stone increases the beneficent aspects by concentrating rays of the planet and causing this energy to flow into the human body. The person who wants to wear a gemstone should always use the right metal to get it set in the ring. The second important thing can be said, as the right stone should be worn in right finger as for example yellow sapphire should be worn only in the first finger.
Some gem stones have a powerful and strong healing effect. Placing an Amethyst or Rose quartz gem stone close to the bed radiates the energy to bring in love and close ties for those married. It enhances good health when placed close to the bed of elders or those who are recovering. However all crystals and gemstones need proper cleansing prior to putting them to use. Soaking them in rock salt water for a week, rinsing them in running water and charging them in sunlight are mandatory to derive the positive benefits from gem stones.
