Do you believe that wearing a stone can alter your destiny, improve your health or make you more successful in life?  If you do, then you’re at the right place to learn more about the mystical powers of these Gemstones. If you don’t, then this will be a good place to start and understand the universal powers and how planetary motions affect our life, body and mind.

Vedic astrology believes that the position of the planets during the time of birth directly affects a person’s disposition. These planetary positions navigate strengths, weaknesses, successes, failures, financial status and health. It sounds too surreal, but like the famous American Astronomer Carl Sagan once said – “We are all made of star stuff”, and when you think of it, all the elements that make up a human body are all the elements that constitute a star. 

It has been believed for centuries that Gemstones, if worn correctly, have the power to alter our lives. Astral studies suggest that when birthstones receive cosmic vibrations from their respective planets, they enter our body and act as healing agents that eliminate the negative elements within us. This is why astrologers advise us to wear gemstones in such a way that it touches our body. This gives a path for the cosmic rays to enter the body and create positive changes. 

Each birthstone has its own specific mineral and colour with respect to the planet it represents. Wearing the right stone for the right planet at the right time can usher in immense benefits for the wearer. However, it is extremely crucial that we consult an astrologer to choose the right stone with respect to our birth charts. This is where astral services come into play. The right astral service is all about connecting the dots of destiny to unlock our minds and expand our horizons. And, all of this with the silent powers of these vibrant gemstones. 

We’re sure that you are now thinking how these different gemstones affect us. To learn about them, you have to first understand the planets and how they impact our daily lives. These ninevibrant stones and the planets that they adhere to go hand in hand to align stars and illuminate paths.
