Ruby - Manik

Ruby (Manik) is the gemstone of the Sun (Surya) in Vedic astrology, revered as the king of all gems. A deep-red corundum mineral on the Mohs 9 hardness scale, natural Ruby is one of the rarest Navratna stones. It resonates with the Manipura (Solar Plexus) and Anahata (Heart) chakras, channelling solar fire into the wearer's aura. Vedic tradition recommends Ruby for Leo (Simha) ascendants and those undergoing Sun Mahadasha or Antardasha. It is believed to strengthen leadership, paternal relationships, government favour, and physical vitality. Natural untreated Rubies from Burma (Mogok Valley) and Sri Lanka are considered most potent. All Rubies sold by AcharyaRajMishra.com are sourced from certified origins, tested for natural origin, and accompanied by a gemological certificate. Worn in gold on the ring finger of the right hand on a Sunday morning, ideally after energising with Surya Beej mantra (Om Hraam Hreem Hraum Sah Suryaya Namah).
