Observation Notes

• These combinations should, in most cases, be avoided, though sometimes such combinations are very necessary and recommended by a reliable astrologer with reference to the birth chart of the wearer.

• In the case of neutral or slightly compatible planets, their elemental character and the intensity of karmic mechanisms could result in unpredictable consequences.

• They can be beautiful on fashion or aesthetic grounds, but under the guise of astrological remedies, there is a danger of taking a pair of these.

The Reason Why Compatible Combinations are Important

When there is a combination of two compatible Navratna gems:  

• Their energies of planets enhance one another.

• They harmonise the emotional and physical energy centres.

• They produce a synergetic field of healing, clarity and protection.

  However, mismatched gems are not likely to interact positively; often they deny the powers altogether or, even more dangerously, they develop a clash and induce some level of emotional disbalance, health or career stagnation, which is why they should be avoided wearing together.   

Gemstone Pairs Not To Be Worn Together 

There are some gemstone pairs that you should completely avoid, because these combinations are said to bring chaos and disadvantages only. The ruling planets of these gemstone pairs are enemies and do not support each other's energies, as their energies clash, so you shouldn't wear these gemstone combinations .   

Here are the gemstones that you should not wear together as a combination:   

• Ruby + Blue Sapphire / Hessonite / Cats Eye (Sun vs Saturn / Rahu / Ketu)
• Emerald + Yellow Sapphire / Cats Eye / Pearl (Mercury vs Jupiter / Ketu / Moon)
• Red Coral + Emerald / Diamond / Blue Sapphire / Hessonite (Mars vs Mercury/Venus/Saturn/Rahu)
• Pearl + Hessonite / Cat’s Eye / Blue Sapphire /Red Coral (Moon vs Rahu/Ketu/Saturn / Mars)
• Yellow Sapphire + Diamond / Emerald / Hessonite / Cats Eye (Jupiter vs Venus / Mercury / Rahu / Ketu)
• Diamond + Hessonite (Venus vs Rahu )
• Hessonite + Cats Eye (Rahu vs Ketu)
  

Final Thoughts

It is not only a matter of aesthetics, but is a matter of alignment with gemstone combinations. When you are creating a personal talisman or want to get the powers of planets, you must understand how different gemstones become compatible.
