Origins of the Sapphire Stone
Sapphire is a variety of corundum, the same mineral as ruby. While blue is the most famous hue, sapphires actually come in nearly every color of the rainbow—except red.
Key sources of sapphire include:
- Kashmir, India: The legendary “cornflower blue” sapphires from Kashmir are rare and the most valuable.
- Sri Lanka (Ceylon): Known for vibrant, medium-blue sapphires with exceptional clarity.
- Myanmar (Burma): Produces rich, deep blue stones.
- Madagascar and Thailand: Emerging as significant sources of high-quality sapphires in various colors.
- Australia and Montana (USA): Also produce unique shades of sapphire.
What Makes a Sapphire Valuable?
A sapphire’s value is determined by the “Four Cs”:
- Color: The most prized sapphires have a vivid royal blue hue—neither too dark nor too light.
- Clarity: Fewer visible inclusions increase value, although some inclusions are common and natural.
- Cut: A well-cut sapphire maximizes brilliance and depth of color.
- Carat: Larger sapphires are rare, especially those with excellent clarity and color.
Among all, Kashmir blue sapphires are considered the most precious.
Astrological and Horoscopic Significance of Sapphire
In Vedic astrology, blue sapphire (Neelam) is ruled by the planet Saturn (Shani), a planet of discipline, karma, and long-term growth.
Who Should Wear a Sapphire?
- People born under Capricorn (Makar Rashi) and Aquarius (Kumbh Rashi) often benefit most.
- Individuals with a strong Saturn placement in their horoscope, or those undergoing Shani Sade Sati or Dhaiya, may be recommended a sapphire by astrologers.
Note: Blue sapphire is a powerful gemstone—it should always be worn after testing or astrological consultation, as its effects can be swift and intense.
