Manik (Ruby): Understanding When, Why, How, Where, and What

When Should You Wear a Manik Gemstone?

Manik, also known as Ruby, is associated with the planet Sun (Surya) in Vedic astrology. It is recommended for individuals who need to strengthen the Sun in their horoscope, particularly during Sun Mahadasha or Antardasha. Wearing Manik is beneficial for those who face challenges related to self-confidence, authority, career growth, or health. It is most beneficial for individuals with Leo (Simha) or Aries (Mesh) ascendants, as the Sun rules both these signs. However, wearing Manik without proper consultation can lead to excessive pride, ego issues, or health complications, so it is important to consult an astrologer to ensure its suitability.

Why Wear a Manik Gemstone?

Manik is considered the king of gemstones, symbolizing power, authority, and vitality. It enhances the positive attributes of the Sun, such as leadership, confidence, wisdom, and status. Manik can help in overcoming health issues, especially those related to the heart, spine, or eyes. It is also believed to bring financial prosperity, success in career, and enhance social standing. Ruby is known for increasing courage, strength, and mental clarity, making it a great choice for those in leadership roles, the military, politics, or business. It also promotes emotional balance, and its vibrant energy is believed to boost vitality and restore mental well-being.

How to Wear a Manik Gemstone?

Manik should be a natural, untreated, high-quality stone, ideally weighing at least 5 carats for optimal astrological benefits. It should be set in gold and worn on the ring finger of the right hand. The best day to wear Manik is Sunday, especially during the Sun Hora. Before wearing, the gemstone should be purified in raw milk or holy water and energized by chanting the “Om Suryaya Namah” mantra 108 times.

Where to Buy a Manik Gemstone?

Manik should be purchased from a trustworthy source, to avoid getting a lab grown, fraudulent gemstone. The finest Rubies come from Myanmar (Burma), Sri Lanka (Ceylon), and Thailand. It is important to choose a natural, untreated ruby as treated or synthetic rubies do not carry the same astrological power. Ensure that the gemstone is a deep, vibrant red color with no visible inclusions for the best astrological benefits.

What Are the Benefits and Risks of Wearing Manik?

When suitable, Manik can bring success in career, enhanced social status, good health, and financial prosperity. It is particularly beneficial for those in positions of authority or leadership. Ruby is also believed to boost vitality, protect against negative energy, and restore emotional well-being. However, if worn incorrectly or by individuals with a weak or malefic Sun, it can lead to overconfidence, arrogance, pride, and health issues like high blood pressure, headaches, or eye problems. A thorough analysis of the individual’s horoscope by an astrologer is recommended to determine if Manik is a suitable choice.
