In Jyotish, every rashi (zodiac sign) is ruled by a planet, and each planet is linked with certain colours and stones. Precious gems like ruby, emerald or blue sapphire are prescribed only after a full kundli reading. Semi-precious stones, often called uparatna, are gentler and widely worn for everyday support. This guide uses those popular planet-to-stone associations to suggest a bracelet for each moon sign.
How to use this guide
Use your moon sign (Chandra rashi), which Vedic astrology treats as more personal than the sun sign. If you do not know it, any kundli app can tell you from your birth date, time and place. Treat the suggestions below as a starting point. If you already follow a specific remedy from your astrologer, follow that.

Your rashi or your goal?
Your sign says something about your nature, but your current goal matters just as much. A Mesh native preparing for UPSC may get more from lapis lazuli than tiger eye. If your need is clear, choose by purpose instead: money, protection, study or career. You can also wear your rashi stone on one wrist and a goal stone on the other, as explained in our guide to wearing multiple bracelets.
Starting to wear your rashi stone
Many people begin on the weekday of the ruling planet: Tuesday for Mars, Friday for Venus, Wednesday for Mercury, Monday for the Moon, Sunday for the Sun, Thursday for Jupiter and Saturday for Saturn. Cleanse it first with our cleansing guide and wear it on the hand suggested in which hand to wear a bracelet on. Diwali is also considered an auspicious day to start any new stone; see our Diwali gift guide.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I use my sun sign or moon sign?
Vedic astrology gives more weight to the moon sign (Chandra rashi). Use that if you know it.
Can these bracelets replace a precious gemstone my astrologer prescribed?
No. A prescribed navratna depends on your full chart. These semi-precious bracelets are for everyday wear and intention, not a substitute.
Can I wear a stone that is not for my rashi?
Yes. Semi-precious stones are generally worn freely by anyone. Many people choose by goal rather than sign.
On which day should I start wearing my rashi bracelet?
Traditionally on the weekday of your sign’s ruling planet, after cleansing it.
