Planet: Mars / Mangal Gemstone: Coral

Briefing the Nature of the Planet

Mars, a powerful planet, can work out miracles for it's devotees. It can protect it's
devotees from impending dangers and blood-related ailments. It is instrumental in
the acquisition of landed properties, acquiring of status, affluence in profession/occupation and even relieves from steep debts.

Favourite Colour : Red
Favourite Day : Tuesday
Favourite God / Deity : Lord Hanuman

The ill effects of Mars can be minimized and the good effects can be increased
according to Indian mythology by doing the following tasks. Any or all of these, one
can select as per one's convenience.
• Donation of a piece of Red cloth on any Tuesday is an ideal proposition,
recommended by the astrologers, as red is the colour dear to Mars.
• Wearing of coral ring made of Gold or Copper on the Index or Ring finger on
any Tuesday and continuing to wear it thereafter is likely to appease Mars.

beneficial results.
• Offering Red Kaner (Red Oleander) in Hawan (Fire Sacrifices) is also an
effective measure to appease Mars.

Pulse) on Tuesday. This will prove to be substitutive.
• Worshipping Lord Hanuman, the mighty and powerful god and controller of
Mars Planet with Red Goolar (Ficus Glomerata) or Kaner (Oleander) for 41
days can bring fruitful results.

Mars is a masculine, dry, and fiery planet. It is said to be the commander-in-chief of the assembly of the nine planets. It is also personified as the god of war. Mars is a warrior by nature-bile-dominated in temperament – and it rules over courage,
bravery, patience, self-confidence, leadership abilities, physical strength, forcefulness, violence, animal nature, cattle, land as property, earth, fire, saffron, musk, mercury (the metal), cuts, burns, bruises, anger, hatred, impulsive nature, and insensitivity. Mars makes its natives short-tempered, argumentative; lovers of weapons, guns, and explosives; commanders; generals; soldiers; and policeman. It also gives them great technical and mechanical abilities and makes them builders, designers, engineers, and good surgeons.
Mars is fond of law and order – and arrangement. It gives energy ,determination,
great administrative ability, and independent spirit. Mars gives its best effect from twenty-seven to twenty-eight and up to thirty-two years of age. Its metal is copper; its day is Tuesday. Sun, Moon, and Jupiter are its natural friends, Venus and Saturn are neutral in friendships, and Mercury, Rahu, and Ketu are its enemies. It is powerful in Pisces and Aquarius, Mrighshira, Dhanishtha, and Chitra and its nakshatras. Leo, Sagittarius, and Pisces are friendly zodiacal signs and Gemini, Taurus, Libra, and Virgo are enemy zodiacal signs.
If Mars is afflicted or weak, it causes troubles; it makes its natives cruel, violent, aggressive, rough, and rude. It causes eczema, rashes, disorders of the blood and bile, cuts, wounds, electric shocks, gunshots, knife wounds, burns, bruises, anger, hatred, psychic disturbances, poverty, infections, smallpox, plague, tuberculosis, thirst, piles, ulcers, fevers, poisoning, surgical operations, and diseases of the stomach, liver, lungs, nose, and ears. Afflicted Mars gives lack of ambition and motivation, and success in life becomes difficult.

Mars is highly benevolent to it's devotees and equally ferocious to ignorers. To fulfill the ambitions of acquiring high status and abundant success, the blessings of Mars are very much needed. Mars softens it's irritant and ferocious nature to it's sincere devotees and he i.e. the devotee is left with no worries and fear in the offing.

Before wearing the ring for the first time, immerse it in raw cow's milk and wash it in Ganga water, rainwater, spring water, or water kept in a copper pot for some time. After being washed, the ring should be placed on a red cloth on which a numerical Mars Yantra is drawn with red sandalwood paste, gorochan (a red calcium from cowhorn), saffron, or roli.
