Budh Yantra

Worn for a missing number 5. In numerology, where the number 5 does not appear in your date of birth, Mercury's influence is considered absent from your chart. The Budh Yantra is the traditional remedy — it supplies the qualities of Budh, Mercury, that a missing 5 is said to leave wanting.

The Budh Yantra is the classical navagraha yantra of Mercury, called the prince among the nine planets. Mercury governs intellect, memory, logic, speech and commerce.

Why 999 fine silver matters
