Sun (Surya) — Vitality, Authority, Inner Fire

Surya responds to warming, energizing influences: red/orange hues, saffron, ginger, black pepper, and rituals like Surya Arghya (water offering) using copper. Ruby and gold are traditional solar amplifiers. Sunday routines—Surya Namaskar, sandalwood/saffron tilak—build clarity, courage, and “inner spine.”

Moon (Chandra) — Mind, Emotions, Nourishment

Chandra is cooled and nourished by white, soothing foods: milk, rice, ghee, coconut, watery fruits. Lunar herbs like shatavari, chamomile, jasmine, sandalwood calm the nervous system and support hormones. Silver and pearl/moonstone align with lunar softness. Monday rituals favor white flowers and gentle devotional routines.

Mars (Mangala) — Courage, Action, Blood/Heat

Mars likes red, protein-rich, strengthening foods (red lentils, jaggery, pomegranate) and fiery helpers like garlic and ashwagandha. Red hibiscus offerings, mustard oil lamps, and Tuesday Hanuman worship channel raw power into protection. Red coral (with guidance) is the classic Mars gemstone.

Mercury (Budha) — Speech, Intelligence, Trade

Mercury thrives on light, green, fresh foods: greens, moong, herbs, fennel/mint teas. Ayurvedic brain and speech allies—brahmi/gotu kola, licorice, coriander—support clarity and communication. Emerald is Budha’s gem. Wednesday practices emphasize learning, clean routines, and mindful speech.

Venus (Shukra) — Love, Beauty, Fertility

Venus responds to sweet, cooling, luxurious nourishment: dairy, rice pudding, fragrant foods, rose water. Herbs like shatavari, amla, rose, lotus build ojas and reproductive balance. Silver, perfumes, and aesthetic refinement are Venucian. Friday devotion often includes Lakshmi worship, charity, and beauty-as-ritual. Diamond (or white substitutes) is Venus’s gem.

Jupiter (Guru) — Wisdom, Dharma, Blessings

Jupiter aligns with yellow, sattvic, nourishing foods: turmeric, bananas, yellow dal, ghee, jaggery. Herbs that build vitality and digestion support Guru: ashwagandha, liver-support tonics, sacred fig. Thursday rituals favor learning, teaching, mantra, and generosity. Yellow sapphire and gold are key Jupiter symbols.

Saturn (Shani) — Karma, Discipline, Endurance

Saturn harmonizes through simplicity, grounding, and detox: black sesame, urad dal, millet/barley, bitter greens. Joint and longevity supports like triphala/haritaki, guggulu fit Saturn’s slow medicine. Saturday remedies include mustard oil lamps, service, humility, and restraint. Iron and (carefully chosen) blue sapphire are Saturn’s materials.

Rahu — Obsession, Disruption, Foreign/Tech

Rahu amplifies and distorts—so remedies focus on detox, clarity, and de-addiction: simple foods, bitter cleansing, tulsi/sandalwood, smoke-clearing rituals. Hessonite (Gomed) is Rahu’s gem (only with proper assessment). Practices reduce overstimulation and compulsive loops.

Ketu — Detachment, Mysticism, Liberation

Ketu reduces and severs, so remedies emphasize silence, fasting, simplicity, spiritual focus. Bitter/light diets, sacred grasses (like kusha), meditation, and mantra restore inner alignment. Cat’s eye (Lehsunia) is Ketu’s gemstone (with guidance).

Core idea: every planet can be met through daily choices. You don’t “fix” a chart—you train a frequency.
