Pukhraj Yellow Sapphire For Wealth And Prosperity

Pukhraj is the Hindi name for yellow sapphire, though it is sometimes used (or misused) in India to refer to the more common yellow topaz or citrine. The exact meaning of pukhraj is important because yellow sapphire has a special place in Vedic astrology.

According to the Vedic tradition, there are nine gemstones which are thought to have special significance: ruby, pearl, coral, emerald, yellow sapphire, diamond, Blue Sapphire, chrysoberyl cat’s eye, and hessonite garnet. These nine gemstones are thought to correspond to the nine planets, with yellow sapphire being the gem associated with Guru or Jupiter, the largest graha or planet in the solar system.

Yellow Sapphire is believed to attract wealth and bring prosperity to the family. In general, Pukhraj helps to bring fulfillment of ambition. For example, it is believed that a girl who wears yellow sapphire will get married early. People aspiring to administrative and political positions should wear it to give them the benefit of fate on their side. It also acts as a protective charm. Those who find obstruction in the progress of their education, or those who suffer losses of property should wear yellow sapphire for removal of their difficulties.

Pukhraj is also said to aid in eliminating impurities from the body and stimulating the lymphatic system. Astrological gemologists recommend yellow sapphire to treat liver and gallbladder problems as well as disorders of the spleen and stomach.

Sterling Silver Roses

Roses are an overwhelming popular flower, often given to say “I Love You.” And, given just how significant they are, anyone truly fond of these beautiful blooms, would likely keep them forever if they could. With sterling silver roses, that’s even more of a possibility than it ever was before.

On your quest for sterling silver roses, you may be a little confused as to which dipped metal flowers you should choose. After all, they can be purchased in both silver and gold. Sterling is often a more popular choice simply because of its affordability over gold. Given that’s the case, you will likely be able to afford several sterling silver roses over a pricier single gold one. Gold roses could cost twice as much as those dipped in silver, thus it pays to look at the differences in cost when making a decision. Money aside, sometimes it comes down to personal taste – to some, gold may be flamboyant and flashy, while sterling silver is sleek and trendy.

Roses have been around for millions of years and while it’s true they signify many things, so too do their colors. Amongst the 3,000 varieties of roses that exist, the color red is the most common. Red roses represent love and romance and have always been the time-honored way of saying “I love you” to a special someone in your life. Don’t think if you choose sterling silver roses over the real thing, that the same sentiment doesn’t apply; a particular color isn’t needed to express both a deep and meaningful sentiment.

Sterling silver roses have been designed so they look just like the real flower; it has five petals and both short and long stems. And, while the stems are adorned with sterling leaves, unlike the real rose, thorns aren’t a worry on those dipped in silver.

The Rose Flower comes from a long and interesting history. It’s part of several stories in Greek Mythology, for example. It’s believed that the Goddess of Love, Aphrodite, created the rose which was shed from both her tears and the blood of Adonis, her lover. After turning Aphrodite into the Goddess Venus, the Romans also adopted the rose as it symbolized love and beauty for them. The rose was even offered as a bribe by Cupid to the God of Silence so as to try and cover up Venus’ many love affairs. As a result, the rose became a symbol of secrecy and went on to be used as adornments for the ceilings of Roman dining rooms where guests were reminded to keep secret all that had been discussed during dinner. To this day, sub rosa (or under the rose) means confidentiality.

Unlike ancient Rome, roses today don’t represent secrecy as they once did. Any rose, including those of the sterling silver variety, is a treasured keepsake and is meant to be on display for all the world to see and admire.
