Red Coral for Mars
How can Mars affect your life?
Mars is the planet of physical energy, health, sports, skill in using your hands, leadership ability, property, confidence, courage, and determination. When Mars is afflicted — poor health, physical weakness, great fear, apathy, accidents, poor confidence, violence, and aggression can be seen.
There are multiple gemstones which can be helpful for the influence of Mars, but the primary stone for Mars is red coral. This is the most powerful; the deeper red color is most effective. Avoid uneven stones, holes, cracks and look for smooth color and texture.
