Western Astrology and Gemstone for Taurus

According to Western astrology, gemstones are chosen for a particular zodiac sign in accordance with the ruling planet, to ensure that the stone is able to transmit the cosmic energies of the planet or the sun sign to the wearer. Similarly, the lucky color of the sun sign is considered in choosing a corresponding stone for that particular sign.

As per Western astrology, Taurus is an Earth sign, which makes earth tones such as yellow, orange and green the lucky colors for this zodiac sign. Consequently, Western Astrology recommends emerald, sapphire, coral, agate, and carnelian as the gemstones for the Taurus zodiac sign. As per this system of astrology, emerald is linked with Venus, the ruling planet of Taurus, making it suitable for these descendants.

On the other hand, sapphire is treated as the traditional birthstone for the month of April and May as per Italian, Roman, Russian, Arabic and Hebrew calendars. Some other stones which are deemed lucky for this zodiac sign are amber, azurite, garnet and rose quartz.

Vedic Astrology and Gemstones for Taurus

While Western Astrology is more ambiguous in the sense that it treats all the persons born under the same zodiac sign as one category, the ancient Vedic Astrology is far more precise and accurate, as it studies every individual on the basis of attention to minute details such as date, time and place of birth.

These factors have a direct bearing on the characteristic personality traits as well as prediction of future of an individual. This system believes that even if two people are born at the same point in time in two different places in the world, they cannot have the same personality traits and similar fates.

This means that two people coming under the Taurus zodiac sign cannot be recommended the same gemstone, without studying their horoscope in detail.

Therefore, as per Vedic Astrology, it is recommended that the native should first have his natal chart examined by an expert astrologer and then wear a gemstone accordingly, whatever his zodiac sign may be. If satisfied, click to Get Your Astrology Consultation Report.
