What is Ruby (Manikya)?
Ruby is a deep red precious gemstone that strengthens the influence of the Sun. It belongs to the corundum family, and its value is determined by its color, clarity and brilliance. A high-quality Ruby has a deep red, often called "pigeon blood red," color.
Who Should Wear a Ruby?
People whose birth chart shows a weak Sun
Those seeking leadership qualities, respect and self-confidence
People working in government jobs, politics or administration
Those currently running the Mahadasha or Antardasha of the Sun
People with Leo (Simha) as their ascendant, for whom it is especially auspicious
Note: Before wearing any gemstone, it is important to consult an experienced astrologer and have your birth chart reviewed, as planetary conditions differ from person to person.
The Right Method to Wear a Ruby
Auspicious Day: Sunday is considered the most auspicious day to wear a Ruby.
Auspicious Time: It is best to wear the stone after sunrise, during the bright lunar fortnight (Shukla Paksha), in the morning.
Metal: Setting the Ruby in gold is considered most auspicious. If gold is not possible, copper can also be used.
Finger: The Ruby should be worn on the ring finger, also known as the "Surya" finger.
Purification: Before wearing, purify the stone using Ganga water, raw milk and honey.
Worship Ritual: Place the stone before Lord Surya, light incense and a lamp, and chant the mantra given below.

While wearing the stone, it is considered auspicious to chant the following mantra:
"Om Suryaya Namah"
Chant this mantra at least 108 times. If possible, you can also have the complete Surya mantra recited:
"Om Hraam Hreem Hraum Sah Suryaya Namah"
Only after chanting the mantra should the stone be worn on the finger.
