Is my rashi the same as my Western sign?
Not always. In Vedic astrology your rashi is usually your Moon sign, the sign the Moon occupied at birth, read in the sidereal zodiac. A Western sun sign uses the Sun and the tropical zodiac, so the two often differ. If you know your Moon sign or your lagna (ascendant), use that to choose remedies.
Remedies for Mithuna rashi
- Gemstone: Emerald (Panna), the ratna of Budh. Its common upratna is peridot or green onyx.
- Rudraksha: 4 mukhi, linked with Budh in modern practice. The 5 mukhi suits everyone.
- Day: Wednesday, the day of Budh, is traditionally chosen to start a remedy.
- Mantra: the beej mantra of Budh, Om Braam Breem Braum Sah Budhaya Namah, chanted 108 times.
- Daily wear: the Gemini rashi bracelet, pendant or coin keeps the sign's stone with you.
A gemstone strengthens its planet for better or worse, so confirm it against your birth chart before wearing it. Consult Pt. Rahul Kaushl for a chart-based choice.
Compatibility bracelets
Each compatibility bracelet pairs the stones of two signs, such as Gemini with any of the twelve. They are a popular gift for couples, friends and siblings who want a shared reminder of each other.
