About this Ruby (Manikya) Pendant
The Ruby (Manikya) Pendant presents a natural Ruby gemstone set in silver metal, offered in a free-size format. Ruby, known in Sanskrit as Manikya, is one of the Navaratnas — the nine sacred gemstones of Vedic astrology — and is celebrated for its deep red colour and rich association with solar energy. The setting in silver creates a classic contrast that highlights the stone's natural colour while making it suitable for both formal and devotional wear.
This pendant is traditionally worn close to the heart or chest so that the gemstone maintains contact near the body. It is favoured by those seeking to honour or strengthen the influence of the Sun in their lives. As with all Navaratna gemstones, it is strongly advised to consult a qualified astrologer to confirm that Ruby is appropriate for your specific birth chart before regular wear.
Astrological significance
Ruby (Manikya) is the classical gemstone for the Sun (Surya) in Vedic astrology. The Sun represents the soul, will-power, authority, and vitality. Wearing Ruby is traditionally believed to strengthen a benefic Sun in the horoscope, supporting confidence, leadership, and a sense of purpose. It is associated with the zodiac sign Leo (Simha Rashi) and is considered particularly significant for those in whom the Sun holds a prominent or favourable position. A qualified Jyotish practitioner should always be consulted before wearing this gemstone.
