For the last 2000 years the science of astrology particularly gemstones was used freely and effectively to rectify many illnesses and bad omens in life. The science of healing through the use of appropriate precious and semi precious birthstones eventually became an inseparable and important branch of astrology.

There is no particular proof pointing towards when actually this science evolved and became popular. However, there are many documented instances of how birthstone jewellery was put to excellent use. Some fans of gemstone jewellery have even mentioned that the science of gemology is more than 1,000-2,000 old while a few others do not shy in stating that this has its origins for more than 5,000 years ago.

These gemstones were also known to be always worn only after performing specific pujas after conducting elaborate, pious rituals and ceremonies. These stones are washed in saffron, milk and worn after chanting stone specific mantras. This knowledge has been circulated and passed on for many generations and hence even modern, urban working professionals who are not religious have used these to gain materialistic gains, wholesome health. Hence the use of gemstones is now an emerging trend among the lives of busy, urban people who certainly may or may not be believers of spirituality, alternative healing and Hindu religion.

Which gemstone is right for me?

Usually gemstones are never selected on the criteria of an individual's zodiac sign such as Leo, Sagittarius, Aries, Scorpio or Libra. A much deeper and scientific understanding goes in to deciding which gemstone will actually work well for the person wishing to benefit. Having faith in gemology is vital to receive best results. This knowledge refers to vedic astrology and knowing all the nuances of the nine planetary positions.

What is the major difference between genuine gemstones and the gems that are sold in jewellery stores?

These are definitely not the same. Planetary gemstones that are worn as healers are compulsorily unheated and untreated in any way. One must buy gemstones from genuine, trusted sources or websites that share a certificate of authenticity. Nowadays, 98% of the traditional market gemstones are subjected to treatments, which include enhancing the colour of the stone by heat, radiations, dyeing and fracture filling for drastically improving the cosmetic look of the stone. Untreated gemstones are any day more beneficial than the gemstones that are treated and marketed at local jewellery stores.

So why wait? Don a good gemstone today itself!
