Benefits of Pearl for Cancer

Who should wear Moti

Pearl is especially helpful for people who feel emotionally restless, anxious, or struggle with sleep and mood. It works best when Moon is supportive in your birth chart.

How to wear Pearl

Wear a natural, untreated Pearl of about 4 to 7 carats, set in Silver, on the little finger of the working hand. Wear it for the first time on a Monday morning after washing it in raw milk and clean water, and chant Om Chandraya Namaha 108 times to activate it.

Important: Pearl is gentle and rarely harmful, but a natural pearl works best. Avoid imitation pearls for astrological use. A gemstone should always be chosen after looking at your full birth chart, not by sign alone.
