The rudraksha is Shiva's grace in seed form, and its mukhis (faces) map to the planets — the traditional table: 1-mukhi Sun, 2 Moon, 3 Mars, 4 Mercury, 5 Jupiter, 6 Venus, 7 Saturn, 8 Rahu, 9 Ketu. The rashi rule is the same as ever: the mukhi of your sign's lord is the base choice.
The 5-mukhi is held universal and safe for all — the best place to begin. Wearing is usually done on a Monday, after purifying with milk and Gangajal, chanting 'Om Namah Shivaya', on a red/yellow thread or a rudraksha mala.
How to identify a genuine rudraksha?
Natural mukhi lines run continuously through the seed; carved ones sit on the surface. A trustworthy source and a lab certificate are the real tests — folk tricks like the water test are not conclusive.
Does a rudraksha need a chart check like a gemstone?
It is not as sharp-acting as a gem — generally safe; still, for special mukhis like the 1-mukhi worn with big resolve, an acharya's advice is best.
What are the wearing rules?
Wear after bathing, keep distance from meat and alcohol, and tradition removes it during sleep and impurity — purity of intent is the chief rule.
