Coral, especially a red coral, when worn on person, promotes
courage and capacity to defeat enemies. It protects one from dreams and
nightmares or even ill health. A good coral should be opaque, roundish edges
and regular in shape and colour, and should be smooth surface. It should be
without a a black or a white spot or a crack or a hole.

Anyone in whose birth chart Mars is
lord of auspicious houses considered either from lagna or rashi (moon sign),
can safely wear a red coral for health, wealth and general well-being. A
guideline is presented here for deciding whether or not one can wear a red
coral.

Red Coral will go well with those
represented by Aries, Cancer, Leo Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and
Pisces. In general, however, coral must be avoided by those born in Taurus,
Gemini, Virgo and Libra.

Swadhisthana Chakra (base chakra or reproductive drive) and is useful in
treatment of problems related to stomach. It is helpful in diabetes, liver,
epilepsy, muscular pain, measles and impotency.

Coral in combination with Emerald
can help in promoting the career of chemists and druggists, surgeons, auditors,
computer related especially DTP and designing. It is great for those in telephony
and communications. A combination of diamond and coral is good for those
tending to evil in helping them in humbleness and positive attitude in life,
and an evil combination of Venus and Mars. Wearing triangular red coral in the
ring and a 3-mukhi with 1-mukhi rudraksh in the neck for self development,

can selectively be wear red coral during the operating mahadasa or bhukti
periods of Mars for ever greater heights in life in career, profession name,
fame, prosperity and felicity in life.

charts, and also the Karkamsha in birth chart, for greater success in career
and personal life felicity.

The
gem to be worn must be abhimantrit (energized) before wearing, to be effective.
Importantly, coral (moonga) is effective for wearing for full three years and
three days from the day of its first wearing, after which it losses its luster
and capacity to give auspiciousness. 
Moreso, gem’s suitability needs periodic reassessment due to changing
fortunes and operating dasa and mahadasa periods.
