One who wears a Ruby which is
unblemished, that is, which is smooth in touch, clean, of good colour and water,
has lustre, brilliance and radiance, is blessed with children, acquires wealth
and property, becomes prosperous and accumulates precious gems.
He is protected from fear, afflictions, sorrow and
disasters. He becomes fully virile and his will - power and spirit are
strengthened. He occupies a high and respected position in society.
Ruby is also of four castes. The Brahmin Ruby is
of rosy colour. The Kshatriya Ruby is red like a red lotus flower. The Vaishya
Ruby has the colour of the seeds of pomegranate or pigeon's blood. The Shudra
Ruby has a blackish or bluish hue and has no radiance.
This costly stone is worn for Sun, which emits
cosmic rays and infra - red radiation. It rules over bones, cures indigestion,
fevers and stomach pains. It is particularly recommended for occultists,
artists, architectures, legal experts, etc. Those belonging to solar sign Virgo
and who have single birth numbers 1 to 4 (born on 1, 10, 19, 28, 4, 13, 22, and
31 of any month) should put on this gemstone. It should be worn on gold on the
ring finger on Sundays within one hour of sunrise after puja (with 3 to 5 rattis
weight). The stone particularly favours those who are in key positions.
A blemished and defective Ruby brings many
troubles for the wearer. If the stone is dull, the wearer's brother gets into
distress. The milky stone destroys the cattle. Double coloured stone causes
distress to the wearer and his father. The stone with a red sign causes quarrels
and disputes.
Smoky stone attracts attack of lightening. The
stone with four spots creates fear from wounds and weapons and if it is dusty in
colour it is the cause of stomach disorders and childlessness. If there are
white, black or honey coloured sprinklings on the stone, the native is defamed
and there is less of longevity, wealth and comforts. It is also believed that if
the stone loses its colour, the wearer is about to become victim of some
distress or disaster.
It regains its colour when the trouble is averted
or is over. It is also said that Ruby fades in colour by being put close to any
poisonous substance. If there is a depression on the stone, the wearer suffers
from ill health and loses vitality and loses vitality and stamina. If the stone
is full of flaws of any kind it may bring death. |
