1. Which Blue Sapphire is best for astrological purposes?
Blue Sapphire original stone from Ceylon (Sri Lanka) is considered the best for astrological purposes. Also known as Sri Lankan Blue Sapphire, this gemstone when worn in a bright blue hue with good clarity brings immense wealth and prosperity to the native’s life.

2. How many carat Neelam stones should I wear?
Neelam stone should be worn based on the wearer’s body weight. The carat weight of this blue precious stone should be 1/12th of the body weight. If the wearer’s body weight is 60 Kg, then he/she can wear a 5-carat original Neelam stone.

3. How to check whether the Blue Sapphire stone is original?

It is important to check the authenticity of Blue Sapphire to not get manipulated by sellers. There are 3 tests that you can undertake to see if blue sapphire is original or fake:

• Fog Test: Breathe on the stone and see the time taken for the mist to be removed. A real blue sapphire is a good conductor of heat, so mist will disappear instantly. A fake one will do the same in a long time of 5-10 seconds.
• Reflection of light: Shine the light of the torch on the blue sapphire stone. A real stone will reflect back blue color while a fake stone will reflect back different colors.
• Inclusions: While for some gemstones, inclusions depreciate the value and effect, they are generally considered a mark for purity and authenticity in blue sapphire. These inclusions are present due to their natural formation process and a completely clear stone should ring a bell for being fake(rarely is it real). However, these imperfections are quite small and not visible to the naked eye. If the stone has significant liquid inclusions or air bubbles, the stone is usually fake or not effective.

4. How do you check if Blue Sapphire suits you?
The precious and authentic Blue Sapphire will start showing its effects (both Blue Sapphire side effects or positive Blue Sapphire effects) after 1-3 days of wearing. If you are not facing any health issues, then it shows that the real Blue Sapphire Neelam stone suits you. However, if you are feeling adverse health effects or experiencing huge financial losses, then you should consult the astrologer and avoid wearing a Neelam Ratan.

5. Can we wear Diamond and Blue Sapphire together?
Yes, you can wear Blue Sapphire and Diamonds together. They make a perfect combination when worn in the form of a high quality Neelam stone ring with diamonds surrounding it.
