Mars is a very hot planet, representing physical drive and courage. Strengthening Mars with a red coral in Ayurveda promotes this heat. It is great for those needing motivation and encouragement.

It’s also important to properly dose red coral, as too much Mars can move the wearer from assertiveness to aggression. Because Mars is a natural malefic in Jyotish, we must be careful to strengthen it in moderation and with clear intentions in mind.
