Navratri is more than a festival. It is nine nights of power, devotion, and transformation. We worship the nine forms of Maa Durga, each one representing a different energy – courage, wisdom, prosperity, and protection.
Just like there are nine goddesses, our ancient shastras speak of Navratna – the nine sacred gemstones. Each ratna is ruled by a planet and carries a divine energy that aligns beautifully with Navratri.
At NVP Jewellery, we believe jewellery should not just make you look beautiful, but also make you feel powerful.
What is Navratna?
Navratna means nine gems. According to Vedic astrology, these nine stones balance the nine planets (Navgrahas) and bring harmony, luck and protection to the wearer.
The Nine Ratnas and Their Navratri Connection:
1. Ruby (Manik) – Day 1: Maa Shailputri
Ruled by Sun. Stone of confidence, leadership and strength. Just like Maa Shailputri gives us strength to begin new journeys.
2. Pearl (Moti) – Day 2: Maa Brahmacharini
Ruled by Moon. Brings peace, calmness and emotional balance. Resonates with Maa Brahmacharini’s tapasya and serenity.
3. Red Coral (Moonga) – Day 3: Maa Chandraghanta
Ruled by Mars. Stone of courage and protection from negativity. Like Maa Chandraghanta who warns away evil.
4. Emerald (Panna) – Day 4: Maa Kushmanda
Ruled by Mercury. Stone of wisdom, creativity and growth. Connected to Maa Kushmanda, the creator of the universe.
5. Yellow Sapphire (Pukhraj) – Day 5: Maa Skandamata

8. Hessonite (Gomed) – Day 8: Maa Mahagauri
