Rare secrets / Gems/ Natal chart /anśa/ what is required to analyse gems?/ Varna and Gender.
A very rare manuscripts describes gems as Male, female and of neuter gender. It gives very different clues regarding the same and which coincidentally matches with my post related to value of π. It also divides stones according to varṇa. Following are some very rare secrets regarding the same.
🦜 five gems are considered mahāratna (Ruby, Diamond, Emerald, nīlamaṇi and pearl are mahāratna). Gomedaka, Coral, Cats eye and Yellow topaz (puṣparāga, Gem of Jupiter) are called Uparatnas.
🦜 Gems are recommended based on Anukūlavada, varṇa and gender. Anukūlavada refers to benefic planets (lordship & placement). Bad lordship, bad placement of planets is considered bad for gem treatment. So gems cannot be worn for lagna ruler, 5th house or 9th house ruler just because of lordship (as is usually done by pundits). Every planet needs to be analysed at individual level. Then preference can be sorted according to gender and varṇa of stones.
Ansa positions (there is no house position in anśa), daśa patterns have no value, Ārūḍha lagna, Jaimini jyotiśa has nothing to do with gems.
🦜 Male gems boons with four puruṣārthas of life (Dharma, ārtha, Kama & Ṃokśa) and these gems are based on certain criteria. So even if rule 2 above is there, you have to look for male gems in the same category. Then according to varṇa of a person the gem colour or chāyā has to be decided which is difficult even for a gemmologist unless he studies the ancient granthas.
🦜 Triangular coral is actually a Ṇapunsak by gender. According to classics such gems lead to lack of progeny and poverty. Interestingly some scholars particularly prefer triangle for coral gemstone.
🦜 Female stones help in progeny and lineage.
🦜 Ansa positions of planets is just a division. There are no houses in anśa charts as is been taught in several courses of Jyotiśa. Any scholar well versed in jyotiśa can tell you that anśa (Navmanshas etc.) are reference points for analysis. So their houses, dṛṣṭi (which is not there) is nothing but dṛṣṭibhrama coined by scholars. As such their value cannot be used for gemmological analysis.
🦜 Good gems are expensive. They are clean, clear, non-treated etc. However, they produce good results according to placement of planets. Their varṇa and gender needs to be analysed during buying procedure.
🦜 Gems are afflicted by five dośa and five guṇas. (This requires knowledge of Gemmology)
🦜 Please not that if there is red dot inside Blue Sapphire which is sold as Raktaneelam (Popular selling phrase) is considered a dośa in gems. It leads to problems with progeny and problems in completion of desires.
🦜 Ruby has four varṇa and four classifications. Every padmarāga is different. The author is talking about corundum where red is kṣatriya and dark black is ksudra ruby. Yellow sapphire is Vaisya ruby and white is Brahmin ruby. There is Sanskrit word which is similar to corundum mentioned in ancient classics.
🦜 Yellow sapphire cannot be used for Jupiter according to above and Blue corundum or Blue sapphire is not mentioned for Saturn.
🦜 According to authors (several of them) blue sapphire cannot be nīlamaṇi, because it has four different colours. If we call it corundum then there is no difference between ruby and Nīlamaṇi which seems quite contradictory. A modern research is required in this case to understand the reality of nīlamaṇi.
“श्वेतनीलं पीतनीलं रत्न)[क्त] नीलमथापि वा । कृष्णनीलं तथा ज्ञेयं … ||”
Definitely the writer is not referring to blue corundum or blue sapphire which is now used for Saturn. So stone for Saturn must have been different.
🦜 in emerald the chāyābheda is used for varṇa which requires knowledge of gemmology. It is also used in opaque gemstones for varṇa division.
🦜 Gems with panca dośa (even if worn for benefics) and of neutral gender or if worn by vijatiya varṇa, then it results in problems.
🦜 It is interesting to know that gems such as Carnelian and Firoza were considered inauspicious no matter what quality they have.
🦜 People who wear gemstones blindly or without jyotiśa consideration or those people who are selling false hopes under the disguise of wide guides should go through above.
