How the Yellow Sapphire Gemstone should be used
Yellow Sapphire is the gemstone ruled by Jupiter. There is some difference of opinion on whether the Sapphire assigned to Jupiter is the white Sapphire or the Yellow Sapphire. Red, white, booklike red, green, yellow, and variegated is the colours from Sun to Saturn in this order. It is, therefore, clear that the colour of Jupiter is yellow and Yellow Sapphire is the appropriate gemstone for him. Yellow Sapphire will prove useful and beneficial to the natives of the birth charts in which Jupiter is lord of auspicious houses. It should not be worn by the natives of the birth charts in which Jupiter is lord of the 6th, 8th and 12th houses without the lordship simultaneously of a trine.
For the Aries Ascendant Jupiter is lord of the 9th and 12th houses. On account of his being lord of the 9th Trine, Jupiter is auspicious for this Ascendant. Consequently wearing a Yellow Sapphire by a native of this Ascendant will make him intellectual, charitable, religiously inclined, respectful towards elders and bestow on his good fortune, wealth, honours, name and fame. These results will be more pronounced in the major and sub-periods of Jupiter. If Jupiter is exalted in the 4th house it will give rise to Hamsa yoga (one of the Panchamahapurusha yogas) and will give the native an unexpected rise in life if he wears a Yellow Sapphire. If as lord of the 9th Jupiter is ill-disposed or afflicted in any way in the birth chart, wearing Yellow Sapphire will protect him from the setbacks caused by the adverse position of Jupiter.
For the Taurus Ascendant Jupiter is lord of the 8th and 11th and is, therefore, not considered an auspicious planet for this Ascendant. Apart from that the lord of the Ascendant Venus is not a friend of Jupiter. Still, if the lord of the 11th Jupiter is in the Ascendant, 2nd, 4th, 5th, 9th, 10th or 11th (in his own sign), the native will have financial gains if he wears a Yellow Sapphire in the major period of Jupiter.
For the Gemini Ascendant Jupiter will be lord of the 7th and 10th houses. As a result of this, he suffers from Kendra adhipati dosha. Still, if Jupiter is in the Ascendant, 2nd (where he will be exalted), 4th, 5th, 7th (in his own sign giving rise to Hamsa yoga), 9th, 10th (in his own sign again giving rise to Hamsa yoga) or 11th, it will be useful to wear a Yellow Sapphire in his major and sub-periods. If a native suffers setbacks in his professional life, he should immediately wear a Yellow Sapphire irrespective of the major period that may be operating at that time. Those apprehending death on account of old age or some illness or in whose horoscope there are indications of short life, should not wear Yellow Sapphire, as Jupiter is the strong death-inflicting planet for this Ascendant.
For the Cancer Ascendant Jupiter will be lord of the 6th and 9th houses. Being lord of the 9th, a Trine, Jupiter is considered to be an auspicious planet for this Ascendant. Consequently wearing a Yellow Sapphire will bless the native with good children, high education, charitable and religious inclinations, good fortune, wealth, name and fame. The results will be more pronounced in the major and sub-periods of Jupiter. If Jupiter is in the Ascendant he will be exalted and in the 9th he will be in his own sign. These dispositions give rise to powerful Raja yogas and a Yellow Sapphire will enhance the beneficial results of the yogas. The native of this Ascendant can expect more favourable results if he wears a Yellow Sapphire with Red Coral or Pearl. Mars who rules over Red Coral (and is a yoga karaka for the Cancer Ascendant) and Moon who rules over Pearl is lord of the Ascendant and both are friends of Jupiter.
For the Leo Ascendant Jupiter will be lord of the 5th and 8th houses. Being lord of the 5th house, a trine, Jupiter is considered an auspicious planet for this Ascendant. Consequently, it will be beneficial for the native of this Ascendant to wear a Yellow Sapphire, particularly in the major and sub-period of Jupiter. It will prove more useful if it is worn with a Ruby, the gemstone of the lord of Ascendant.
For the Virgo Ascendant Jupiter will be lord of the 4th and 7th houses. Consequently, he suffers from Kendra adhipati dosha. Still, if the Jupiter is in the Ascendant, 2nd, 4th and 7th (in his own sign giving rise to Hamsa yoga), 5th, 9th, 10th or 11th, Yellow Sapphire should be worn by the natives of the Ascendant in the major and sub-periods of Jupiter. But those who are in the apprehension of death on account of old age or illness or of their horoscope indicates short life, should not wear this gemstone, as Jupiter is a strong death-inflicting planet for this Ascendant. Those natives of this ascendant who find obstructions in the progress of their educational activities, or those who suffer from setbacks in property matters, should wear a Yellow Sapphire for removal of their difficulties.
For the Libra Ascendant Jupiter is lord of the 3rd and 6th houses and is, therefore, not considered an auspicious planet for this Ascendant. It will, therefore, be advisable for the natives of this Ascendant not to wear Yellow Sapphire. It may, however, be worn if necessary, in the major period of Jupiter if Jupiter is in his own sign on the 3rd or the 12th. As we have said above according to Parashara Jupiter is considered an inauspicious planet for the Libra Ascendant.
For the Scorpio Ascendant Jupiter will be lord of the 2nd and 5th houses. Being lord of the 5th house, a Trine, Jupiter is considered an auspicious planet for this Ascendant. Apart from this, Mars, lord of this Ascendant, is a friend of Jupiter. Consequently Yellow Sapphire is a very suitable stone for the natives of this Ascendant-more so in the major period of Jupiter and his sub-periods. It will prove more profitable if worn along with Red Coral-the gemstone of the lord of this Ascendant.
For the Sagittarius Ascendant Jupiter is lord of the Ascendant and the 4th house. The natives of this Ascendant can always wear Yellow Sapphire as a protective charm. The beneficial results will be felt pronouncedly in the major and sub-periods of Jupiter. If Yellow Sapphire is worn along with Ruby, the gemstone of Sun, the lord of the 9th (Bhagya) house, the results will be more beneficial.
For the Capricorn Ascendant Jupiter will be lord of the 3rd and 12th houses and will, therefore, not be an auspicious planet for this Ascendant, and it will generally not be advisable to wear this gemstone by the natives of this Ascendant. It can, however, be worn, if necessary, in the major period of Jupiter if he is in his own sign in the 3rd or the 12th. Uttara Kalamrit treats Jupiter as a yoga-giving planet for the Capricorn Ascendant but as said by Dr B. V. Raman in his comments on the role of Jupiter in the case of Libra nativity, the views of Uttara Kalamrit are against the accepted rules of astrology.
For the Aquarius Ascendant Jupiter will be lord of the 2nd and the 11th houses, Saturn, the lord of this Ascendant, is an enemy of Jupiter. Still, Yellow Sapphire can be worn in the major period of Jupiter, particularly when it is in his own sign in the 2nd or the 11th, to gain wealth, children and other comforts. However, those who are apprehending death because of old age or some illness or on account of indication of short life in their horoscopes, should not wear Yellow Sapphire as Jupiter being lord of the 2nd house, is a death inflicting planet for this Ascendant.
For the Pisces Ascendant Jupiter will be lord of the Ascendant and the 10th house. He is, therefore, an auspicious planet for this Ascendant. The Natives of this Ascendant can fulfil all their desires by wearing Yellow Sapphire. If Jupiter is in his own sign in the Ascendant or the 10th house this disposition will give rise to Hamsa Yoga and the Yellow Sapphire will help to enhance the beneficial effects of the yoga. The results will be felt more pronouncedly in the major period of Jupiter. Wearing a Yellow Sapphire with Red Coral, the gemstone of Mars, the lord of the 9th (house of Bhagya), will be an ideal combination for achieving success.
Yellow Sapphire should always be got set in a gold ring on a Monday or Thursday. The weight should not be less than three carats. It should not be of 6, 11 or 15 carats. After observing the usual rituals mand reciting the following mantra 108 times, the ring may be worn on the ring finger of the right hand on a Thursday morning of the bright half of the lunar month.
The substitutes for Yellow Sapphire are Yellow Pearl, Yellow Zircon, Yellow Tourmaline, Topaz and Citrine (Quartz Topaz).
Blue Sapphire, Diamond, Gomedha and Cat's Eye should never be worn with Yellow Sapphire.
