Blue Sapphire — The Stone of Saturn

Blue Sapphire, or Neelam, is the blue variety of corundum. Its colour ranges from pale blue to deep royal blue, with the finest stones valued for strong colour, clarity, and exceptional brilliance. Historically important sources include Kashmir, Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Madagascar, and other sapphire-producing regions.

In Vedic astrology, Blue Sapphire is traditionally associated with Saturn (Shani). It is considered a significant gemstone in Jyotish and is traditionally recommended only after examining the wearer's birth chart and Saturn's placement.
