GEMSTONES

Gemstones are naturally occurring mineral crystals or organic materials (like pearls or amber) that are cut and polished to be used in jewelry or astrological remedies. In Vedic astrology, gemstones are believed to hold the energy of planets and are used to balance planetary effects, enhance personal energy, and manifest desired outcomes.

🔷 Types of Gemstones (Based on Astrology)

Gemstones are categorized as:

🔶 Precious Gemstones (High Value & Strong Energy):

These stones are often used for healing, meditation, or as substitutes for precious gemstones.
