Material prosperity and wealth are conferred by this Guru of the demons, if properly positioned in the horoscope. Vehicles, homes and luxuries fall under significations. Artists, painters and musicians are ruled by him.

In Astro Gemology, he is represented by Diamond, the queen of all gems. Let us see how Diamond fares for different Ascs.

For Aries Ascendant - As Venus is a functional malefic for Aries, Diamond is not generally recommended. The exception to the rule is during the subperiods/ periods of Venus' period of directional influence.

For Taurus - Yes, Diamond can be worn, as Venus is the Ascendant lord. By virtue of ownership of the First House, Venus becomes a benefic for Taurus, irrespective of the fact that he owns the adverse 6th.

For Gemini - Again, yes, Diamond can be worn, as Venus is the lord of the favourable 5th ( a Lakshmi Sthana ) & 12th. The 5th is considered to be a Hosue of Wealth.
