• Leo: Leo is governed by Surya, which also does not share compatible energy with Venus. Thus, Leo individuals should avoid wearing this stone.

• Cancer: Though Cancer is ruled by the Moon, which is a friendly planet with Venus, wearing an opal is not suitable for this rashi. This is because wearing this stone makes Venus powerful, which decreases the effect of the Moon planet, impacting the focus and concentration of the wearer.
