Rudraksh and Astrological importance

• Rudraksha is actually a type of bead obtained
  from the Rudraksh tree that grows in plenty in
  Indonesia, Nepal and India. This is botanically
  termed as Elaeocarpus Ganitrus Roxb, however,
  before this was botanically identified and
  properties of the same were researched out,
  Ayurveda had used Rudraksha as the important
  healing herbs in a major way. However, not like
  other herbs in Ayurveda, the process of intake is
  not done orally. On the other hand, this is
  either preserved in a box of small type or worn,
  that should always be near the user and the user
  can keep this under his or her pillow, keep the
  same in his or her room, carry the same in his or
  her car at the time of driving a car or keep the
  same in his or her purse.

• In case you examine these beads, you would find
  that every bead contains clefts with varying
  numbers from one to twenty-one. Based on this
  cleft the usability of any specific Rudraksha
  bead is determined. From number of studies it has
  been found that there are thirty eight facets in
  respect to these beds, however, 5 cleft beads are
  the type used by majority of the users. Yogis in
  India wear Rudraksha mala since they are
  supposed to have healing elements. However, it is
  not used by yogis only but other common persons
  are found to use these beads since they are
  treated as an extraordinary healer. This specific
  type of Rudraksha garland is being used by the
  wearer that the same can protect the body, mind
  and soul of the wearer from the negative effects
  and bring about prosperity and positivity.

The amazing healing power of these beads is being
discussed in the contemporary and traditional
literatures of Asia for a considerable period of
time on various levels for convincing the people.
Lately, scientific studies are being made to
identify how this amazing healing power of these
beads actually works. This is actually very
surprising that a tiny rurdaksha bead can cause
such type of miracle while you search for other
places to find this kind of miracle happening.

Astrological importance

• Each bead of Rudraksh is demarcated by number of
  vertical lines or mukhs found on the beads. Each
  Rudraksha bead is linked with a beej mantra,
  ruling god and ruling planet. One can select a
  particular bead linked with relevant planet for
  which remedy from astrological view point is
  sought. The believers in astrology will no doubt
  believe in remedies from the astrological view
  point when they wear these Rudraksha beads. Those
  persons who are having astrological problem
  related to a particular planet may wear Rudraksh
  for getting the astrological remedy. The user
  should keep or wear rosary or Rudraksh bead that
  is ruled by a particular planet for which remedy
  from astrological view point is sought.

How the identification of a Rudraksha bead is
done ruled by a particular planet?

• Each bead of Rudraksha from one Mukhi Rudraksha
  to nine Mukhi Rudraksha is related to a
  particular ruling planet. The bead can be
  identified being ruled by a particular planet
  through the counting of vertical lines or Mukhs
  present on the bead.
