Ratna is a very sacred and influential gem in Vedic Astrology, representing the planet Jupiter, which is considered the symbol of Godguru, Vidya, Knowledge and Spirituality. When Jupiter is in a weak or afflicted position in the horoscope, pushparaja is worn to remove negative effects like intellectual sluggishness, hindrance in education and hindrance in luck to get auspicious results. By wearing this gem, a person increases in higher education, knowledge, interest in spirituality, conscience, religious loyalty and family happiness and peace. Especially, this gem is considered to be very fruitful in bringing sweetness in married life, getting children happiness and maintaining high respect and prestige in the society. Pusparaja should be worn on a five-metal or gold ring on a Thursday at sunrise, if possible, after getting a gem from the Guru, otherwise, the seed mantra of Jupiter should be chanted at least 108 times on the index finger of the right hand.
Gemstones are often worn according to the zodiac sign, birth chart and also according to the current dasa. However, it would be better to consult an astrologer once and get the birth chart as per the horoscope rather than just the normal horoscope.
