Astrological significance
Red Coral (Moonga/Praval) is the planetary gemstone of Mars (Mangal) in Vedic astrology. Mars is associated with energy, physical strength, ambition, and decisive action. Wearing Red Coral is believed, per classical Jyotish, to enhance the constructive qualities of a well-placed Mars and provide courage and drive to the wearer. It is associated with the rashis Mesha (Aries) and Vrishchika (Scorpio). An astrologer's confirmation of Mars's placement in the individual birth chart is strongly recommended before wearing this stone.
