Personal Guidance, Thoughtfully Explained
Understanding Your Concern
Gemstones are the most expensive thing routinely recommended in this field, and the one most often recommended by people who also sell them. That conflict is worth stating before anything else about how they are used.
What the Tradition Actually Prescribes
Classical gemstone practice is tied to planetary strength, not to a wish. The stone associated with Venus is prescribed where Venus is genuinely weak by placement and where the chart supports strengthening it — which is frequently not the case, including in many charts where the client has a relationship question.
A stone for a planet that is already strong, or that is functionally malefic for your ascendant, is at best inert and at worst poorly advised.
- Prescription follows planetary strength, not the client's wish
- A stone for an already strong planet is not indicated
- What is beneficial depends on your ascendant, not on the question asked
- Diamond and white sapphire relate to Venus in the classical scheme
The Commercial Problem
Where the same person reads the chart and sells the stone, the incentive is obvious and the prescription rate reflects it. A practitioner who recommends a gemstone to most clients is describing their business model rather than their charts.
No stones are sold here. Where one is genuinely indicated you are told which, and you buy it wherever you like, from anyone.
- No gemstones sold by this practice, in any circumstance
- Where one is indicated, you are told which and buy it yourself
- A high prescription rate reflects a business, not a set of charts
- Most relationship consultations conclude with no stone at all
Simple & Confidential
How Your Consultation Works
- 1
Assess Planetary Strength
The chart is examined for which planets are genuinely weak, and whether strengthening them suits your ascendant.
- 2
Say Whether Anything Is Indicated
In most cases nothing is, and you are told that rather than sold an alternative.
- 3
Leave the Purchase to You
Where a stone is indicated you get the specification and buy it independently, at whatever price you find.
