Stones for Malefics
"For, remember, all of these planets, stars, universes, were made for the ENTITY and its associates to rule, and not to be ruled by them, save as an individual entity gives itself to their influence." (2830-2) -Edgar Cayce
Sun Moon Mars Mercury Jupiter Venus Saturn Rahu Uranus Neptune Pluto Chiron
I once asked what to use in two cases where Rahu was causing problems; one had Rahu in the eighth house, and the other had Rahu in debilitation, both cases were in their Rahu Mahadasha. I was told to use lepidolite for both situations:
Use lepidolite for each, Rahu in the eighth or fallen creates much turmoil in the mind, it helps to ease this turmoil and rise the individual out of that lower mind setting and elevate that person to a more peaceful state.
What's the difference between Hessonite and Lepidolite?
Hessonite has a similar energy, it helps the individual to feel whole, to feel one with themselves where as Rahu being half an entity with Ketu the other half can make the person feel they are missing a piece.
The concept of a gemstone for a malefic planet intrigued me and I began working on finding a stone for each planet when it was in a malefic situation. In Vedic astrology it is believed that when a planet is causing trouble there are situations where strengthening it will only increase the trouble it is causing. Therefore other remedial measures are prescribed and possibly benefic influences in the chart could be strengthened with gems.
These stones work on tough placements because they work more on balancing and raising the vibration than on strengthening. They can be used alone or along with other planetary stones to empower their effects. As one works with these stones the intuition will often guide when they are to be used verse other gemstones. There is still a lot of room for intuition and expertise (we always need a good combination of the two). For example, when the Sun is too close to the Moon, do you use pyrite for the Sun, white or black pearl for the Moon, or maybe a moonstone. It depends on placement and aspects and rulerships. We could also see what the experience of the native happens to be in order to determine which part of the energy we want to work with.
Sun Pyrite- helps to bring out the more positive aspects of the Sun. It helps to raise the vibration from that of a malefic to a more balanced energy, helps the Sun to be in harmony with it's position. It is also a stone that can be used when the Sun is combust (too close to another planet). It helps to tone down the overpowering effects of the Sun.Moon Black Pearl- shields the Moon from the malefic energies which are surrounding it, thus making the Moon strong and supported.
Mars Jasper- mainly all these stones have the same effect on the planets. They are helping to heal the fallen planets, that is to strengthen their benefic qualities and raise their vibration to a higher level.
Mercury Black Tourmaline- helps one to regain the ability to express their intelligence, it stimulates the mind, helps to better assimilate knowledge, it helps knowledge to flow forth through words and writing both.
Jupiter Citrine- allows one to clear out negativity and allow abundance into their life.
Venus Danburite- helps one with a fallen Venus to channel their creative energy in a pure way. One with a fallen Venus tends to be or have more of a destructive energy than a creative energy. They can also seem to view any object or person which has a strong Venus energy as having a sexual connotation or viewed in a sexual way. Danburite helps to cleanse these images and turn the destructive energy into the creative. Danburite helps put this shift into motion and accelerate the speed in which it happens and it does this because it helps the person to channel their own higher self, and their desire and needs come from the higher self, it can be a very transformational stone.

Saturn Black Onyx- it works especially well to help keep an individual stay grounded within themselves regardless of what is going on around them. It helps to awaken a person to the knowledge that their soul or their higher being is all that needs to remain intact for them to experience peace. It helps one to drop attachments and material things and allow things to both come and go with ease.
Rahu Lepidolite- has been used through the ages for depression. It is actually its lithium content that gives it its purple color. It helps ease the mental turmoil created by Rahu, rises them out of that lower mind setting and elevates them to a more peaceful state.
Ketu Rainbow Obsidian- with a fallen Ketu in the chart, depending on its placement it can indicate that one has no ability to access their spiritual energy or to control its effects. The rainbow obsidian represents the seat of the kundalini and the colors of the rainbow are this dormant energy. The stone helps to awken this energy and raise it through the body. It helps to make one more well rounded on the spiritual realm because with a fallen Ketu one tends to develop a very narrow view of spirituality.
Additional Information:
If I asked the channel for a certain combination, many times it was "not seen". I had to discover it on my own. The channel was a guide/guru who would never give too much so that I would learn to use and trust my own intuition.
I was in Madya Pradesh, India, at a place called Omkareshwar. It is an island that is in the middle of the Narmada river, it is where they get the Shiva Lingam stones from. The little island has hundreds of temples on it, most to Shiva. One of my favorite temples had a huge Shiva Lingam about six feet tall. Once alone inside I hugged it, at that moment it told me it was for a malefic Saturn. I postulated with some friends who I was spending time on the island with about what type of stone this lingam was made of. We came to the conclusion that it was black onyx. I later confirmed this with the channel, and its relation to Saturn. I also asked about the shape and was told that the Shiva Lingam is also good for Saturn because of its connection to Shiva, the lord of ascetics.
There was a case where a forty year old man who had Jupiter in the seventh house retrograde, this had been giving him trouble with being content with one woman. Some say you can always strengthen Jupiter because of its power as a benefic, but he was a Libra ascendant, which lessens Jupiter's beneficence, and retrograde gives problems finding contentment in the house where he is situated. So I did not feel comfortable telling him to strengthen Jupiter even if other Indian Pundits had recommended him to do this. I went to the channel I had worked with and asked what he could wear?
I was told that I could consider Jupiter a malefic in this chart. When Jupiter is retrograde in transit much of its negative energies are cancelled out for this person and therefore it is the most powerful time to use a stone to strengthen Jupiter. At other times (when Jupiter is direct) it would be wise for the person to just do some type of puja to Jupiter.
