The best time to wear a ruby ring is sunrise.
Before wearing, the ring should be kept for some time in raw cow's milk and should be washed
with Ganga water (if available) or water kept in a copper pot or rainwater. After it has been
washed, the ring should be kept on a red cloth, on which a sun yantra is drawn with either red
sandalwood paste or roli or a mixture of turmeric powder. The person who wants to wear the
ring can do the rituals himself. The ring should be placed in front of the idol or engraved copper
yantra made in gold, on the red cloth on which the numerical yantra of the sun is drawn.
Flowers and incense should be offered to the engraved copper yantra and the yantra and the
gemstone mounted in the ring should be worshiped, reciting the mantra of the sun god.
Mantra
Aum Hring Hamsah Suryaye Namah Aum
The Mantra should be recited 108 times. Then the wearer should meditate on the gemstone
and wear the ring on the ring finger of the right hand.
