o Do not wear stones for the lords of the 6th, 8th, or 12th houses.
o If the ascendant lord is in the 6th, 8th, or 12th house and becomes weak, you
can wear its stone to strengthen it.
2. Beneficial Stones:
o Wear stones for the lords of trine houses (1st, 5th, 9th) as they are generally
beneficial.
3. Special Cases:
o For Cancer ascendant, Jupiter is both the 9th (benefic) and 6th (malefic) lord.
Sometimes, its stone suits, but sometimes it does not.
4. Stone Weight Recommendations:
o For individuals weighing over 10 kg, one ratti per 10 kg of body weight.

(a mixture of five pure substances).

mantra.

7. Special Stones:

aspires to be an industrialist or politician.
o Wear stones during the waxing moon phase (Shukla Paksha), not during the
waning moon phase (Krishna Paksha).
8. Debilitated Planets:
o Do not wear stones for debilitated planets, even if they are the ascendant
lord.
 o For example, if Mars is the ascendant lord and is in the 8th house or a fire
sign like Leo, avoid wearing its stone.
9. Marak Planets:
o For Venus as the 2nd and 7th lord (Marak or killer houses) in the 8th house,
females should avoid wearing diamonds or solitaire.
10. Specific Planets:
o Mercury: Do not wear its stone if it rules the 3rd and 6th houses.
