Aura
It not impossible to feel the vibes that each one of us emit, both positive and negative, that people around us feel and experience. This energy extends about two to four inches around the body & possesses a light or pastel shade. According to astrology, when astrologers make your horoscope, the time, place and your date of birth is important for them to make your astro chart, so that they can understand the colours that are thrown by the planets aspecting your birth planet. These colours are generally ones contained in a rainbow, and extends to about 2-5 inches from the body.

The colors textures and patterns reveal much information about the emotional, mental physical, spiritual, karmic, environmental & relational states of a person. An Aura is like a thumb print, it is completely individual & expresses who you really are in all your splendor. So when you wear a coloured stone for astrological purposes, you are either balancing that colour in your body or enhancing it. Lets understand the effect of the "Rudraksh" in this connection.

Rudraksh according to Hindu mythology is formed by the association of two words, 'RUDRA' and 'AKSHA'. Rudra, complies is the name of Lord Shiva, one of the trinity of three Gods and Aksha means 'tear'. It is said that the plant of Rudraksh is originated from the teardrops of Lord Shiva. As per the Hindu Vedic scriptures, Rudraksh can nullify the effects of malefic planets to large extent. It is also believed that Rudraksh of any mukhis, or faces can never do any harm to the wearer unlike coloured stones that have to be worn only after consultation. No other necklace or bead is so auspicious and powerful as the Rudraksh.

Rudraksh, are really bead like seed which look too ordinary even for a second glance. They come in mukhis or the clefts or furrows on the surface. There are normally 1 to 14 mukhis used for astrological benefits. Each bead has a different effect on you, depending on the number of mukhis it has. And although it may seem harmless, each Rudraksh in actuality is very individualistic and has to be carefully matched with one's horoscope.

The seed of Rudraksh has been given a very special place and it is credited with mystical and divine properties. Its botanical name is 'ELAEOCARPUS GRANITRUS' and it has been known to have magnetic powers as well. Found in the various parts of the world, the seed of the Rudraksh contains the secrets of entire evolution of the cosmos within it.

Rudrakshas are worn for their specific benefits. These are much more powerful and can help achieve wonders, if energized and empowered in the right way. It has been proved that wearing Rudraksha controlled heart beat and had a positive effect on Blood Pressure, Stress, Anxiety, Depression, Palpitations and Lack of Concentration.

Some useful tips for High Blood Pressure Patients
Rudrakhshas have several silent beneficial effects unknown to many. For example, for people suffering from Blood Pressure, it is advised that they dip in 2 beads of 5 mukhi (faced) Rudrakhshas and let them immersed in water for whole night. Drink the water of Rudraksh beads in the morning, before any other intake. You can use any metal for the vessel except copper. Those who suffer from anxiety may keep big size 5 Mukhi Rudraksh with themselves and whenever they feel nervous, they shall hold them tight in their right palm for ten minutes. They will regain their confidence and their body would become stable.

These beads are more often worn as pendants, for their best effects, as they function best when they are away from the human sight and closer to the heart in order to regulate the blood pressure. Finally, Rudraksh Beads have Electromagnetic, Paramagnetic, Diamagnetic and Dynamic Polarity or the ability to change its polarity. Rudraksh also have Anti Ageing Properties based on their Electromagnetism.

When Rudraksha Beads are worn they interface and integrate with the Human Body at a silent subtle level of Consciousness.

As a result of this change in the electrical makeup of our body, positive change is also initiated in our Bio Chemical System.
