Shiva Om Dear Friends,

The Yellow Sapphire ( Pushkaraj )represents the planet Jupiter ( Guru ). Regardless of whether it is a Male or a Female, the Yellow Sapphire ( Pushkaraj ) is to be worn in the Right Hand’s Index finger for the best results. There are certain prescribed ritualistic procedures which need to be adhered to in the process of wearing this Gemstone. This procedure or ritual is also the same for both Men and Women.

This distinction by a few that the women should wear it in the left hand is rather skewed and has no basis either in the classical texts to the best of my reading or on the basis of ground reality. It is simply a bias which is uncalled for. Bluntly put it is just a mindset problem.

The Yellow Sapphire knows no distinction between Male and Female. All it knows is that it needs to bestow its very best on the wearer.

I earnestly hope that this Blog has cleared any doubts that may persist in the minds of my readers.

Shivam Kalyanam.
