Radiating positivity, prosperity, and protection, Yellow Sapphire, known as Pukhraj in Vedic astrology, is among the most powerful and benevolent gemstones. Linked to the planet Jupiter (Guru), the largest and most influential planet in astrology, Yellow Sapphire is often recommended for those seeking success, stability, and spiritual growth.
Origins of Yellow Sapphire
Yellow Sapphire is a variety of the corundum family, like ruby and blue sapphire, and gets its golden hue from trace elements of iron. The finest yellow sapphires are known for their bright, canary-yellow or golden color, transparency, and minimal inclusions.
Major sources include:
Sri Lanka (Ceylon): The most sought-after yellow sapphires with high clarity and vivid color.
Thailand: Produces darker or golden yellow sapphires.
Madagascar and Burma: Also offer quality stones, though less common in the market.
India: Sapphires from Jharkhand and other regions are used in affordable astrological jewelry.
What Makes Yellow Sapphire Valuable?
- Color: Bright golden-yellow with minimal brown or green tints is considered ideal.
- Clarity: The more transparent the stone with fewer inclusions, the higher its value.
- Cut: A well-cut stone brings out brilliance and astrological energy.
- Carat: Jupiter is a powerful planet, and larger stones are often prescribed for full benefits.
Ceylon yellow sapphires are regarded as the most valuable and astrologically effective.
