Jupiter Mahadasha Effects and Remedies

Jupiter Mahadasha refers to the 16-year period where Jupiter enters an individual's birth chart. Jupiter, also called Guru in Hindi, is believed to be a Shubh graha in Vedic astrology. Guru Dasha benefits the person if the planet is in a good house. However, if it is present and ill-placed, it gives bad results. The best Jupiter mahadasha remedy is wearing a natural yellow sapphire stone. Let's see what the effects of this dasha are and how one can overcome its ill effects: 

What is Guru Planet?

Guru planet is one of the influential planets in Vedic astrology. It is part of the Navgraha, and amongst the Navratana, yellow sapphire, also called pukhraj in Hindi, is the gemstone for this planet. In astrology, it is believed that planets and stars in the universe influence various aspects of an individual's life. However, if any of these graha is weak in the person's birth chart, it leads to reduced effects.

• Get a Job: Jupiter+Moon/Mars/Sun is said to be "Yogkarak," which is said to be the best combination for an individual looking for a job. One significant Guru Mahadasha effect (when the planet is well placed) is that the person gets the desired job, especially the Sarkari job.

Jupiter Mahadasha Remedies 

If a Guru is afflicted, the person will undergo adverse effects during this phase. So, during Jupiter, mahadasha, one is suggested to wear a yellow sapphire gemstone. The benefits of this Guru Ratna are as follows:

Bring Wealth and Prosperity: Jupiter is the planet for Pukhraj, which signifies financial growth and abundance. In Hindu culture, yellow is said to be auspicious, and the planet Guru also has the same traits. Thus, both gemstone color and planet together bring prosperity to the wearer. 

Enhances Knowledge and Wisdom: The ruling planet Guru represents a teacher and thus guides the wearer to a successful path. During the mahadasha phase, wearing a pukhraj stone gives power to the associated planet and helps the person gain intelligence to make informed decisions. 

Improves Relationships and Marital Bliss: Yellow sapphire is the best gemstone for relationships. Wearing this gemstone during Jupiter Mahadasha will help resolve conflicts and instill peace in married life.  

Boosts Health and Well-Being: Wearing a Guru Ratna stone on the index finger of the right-hand aids in emotional and physical well-being. Individuals suffering from health issues related to jaundice or seasonal cough and flu get relief after wearing this stone. 

Bring Good Luck and Positivity: The powerful energy of Jupiter's stone keeps you positive throughout its Mahadasha.
