Can Aries Lagna wear Citrine?
Citrine (Sunela) is ruled by Jupiter. Here's what Vedic astrology says for Aries (Mesha) rising.
Why
For Aries (Mesha) Ascendant, Jupiter rules the 9th house (fortune, dharma, father and higher learning) and the 12th house (expenses, losses, foreign lands and liberation). This is a neutral lordship — Citrine can be used for its specific themes (fortune, dharma, father and higher learning), ideally for a defined purpose or period.
Mesha Lagna natives walk into a room head-first — direct, energetic and quick to start things. Mars as the chart ruler gives courage and a competitive streak, but also impatience when results are slow.
