Emerald according to horoscope:
In astrology, gem stones are recommended on the basis of placement of planets in a horoscope. Mercury denotes intellect, wisdom, mental capacity in terms of memory and speech etc. of an individual. Emerald governs this planet who is lord of two Signs namely Gemini and Virgo of the zodiac. Mercury is nearest to Sun emitting green color and is also considered ruler of trade, business and intellect.
Negative Mercury causes lack of memory and reasoning power, problems in speech, lack of concentration and insomnia etc. If such Mercury has the aspect of malefic planets events like theft, fraud etc may take place frequently in the life of a native.

Emerald ensures confidence and enhances positive energy of Mercury. Will as well as analytic power is strengthened and the native gets success in competitive examinations. Relations with younger sisters are improved and the wearer gets co-operations from his co-borns.
