Should you wear Gold or Silver? The Vedic view

In Vedic astrology, every planet (graha) has its own metal — usually the metal that its gemstone is set in. Reduced to the two everyday jewellery metals, Gold and Silver, each planet leans one way:

Gold — the warm, royal, expansive planets: Sun, Mars, Mercury and Jupiter.
Silver — the cool, watery, calming planets: Moon, Venus, Saturn, Rahu and Ketu.

This calculator reads three classic sources from your birth chart and gives a clear verdict:

Moon sign (Janma Rashi) lord — your primary lucky metal, the most widely used in Vedic tradition.
Ascendant (Lagna) lord — strengthens your overall personality and life direction.
Birth star (Nakshatra) lord — the metal of your ruling Vimshottari Dasha planet.

Planet metals

Sun — Gold & copper
Moon — Silver
Mars — Gold & copper
Mercury — Gold (or bronze/brass)
Jupiter — Gold
Venus — Silver & platinum
Saturn — Silver & iron
Rahu / Ketu — Silver & Ashtadhatu (eight-metal alloy)

Wear your metal close to the skin — ideally with the matching gemstone — especially on your lucky day. Enter your exact birth time and pick the city from the dropdown so the Moon sign and Ascendant are accurate.
