  1. Ruby

Ruby is amongst the most sought-after gems in the world. It is worn on the ring finger of the right hand to appease the Sun. An astrologer can talk about the placement of the sun in the horoscope. Wearing Ruby studded in gold in the ring finger can balance the negative effect of the sun which can either be debilitated by residing in the 6th, 7th, 8th, and 12th houses in the horoscope or it is eclipsed by malefic planets like Rahu, Ketu, or Saturn.  It strengthens the sun’s power and helps in job, business, and social standing. 

  1. Pearl

Pearl is forged under pressure and throes of deep water by oysters or clams. It is associated with the Moon which represents the mother and emotions of a person. If the moon is deliciated, a person may feel easily distracted, emotionally vulnerable, and dark and irrelevant imagination will hound him. 

Moon in ‘Dushtasthana’ can cause psychiatric problems. The person may start hallucinating and believing in ghosts. They may suffer depression and anxiety all their life. Wearing pearl studded in sterling silver in the small finger of the right hand helps in keeping calm and control anger.

  1. Red Coral

The red color represents planet Mars. Ancient Vedic astrology states that planet Mars is the commander of the army of ‘Devas’. Hence, he is ascribed with fearlessness, short-temper, war, and courage. It is also responsible for vitality, blood, and ambition. 

Mars is a friend of the Sun, therefore, wearing Red Coral on ring finger strengthens Mars and dispels any negative effect instigated by it such as procrastination and lack of courage.
