Vrishabh Rashi (वृषभ राशि) is the Vedic equivalent of Taurus — ruled by Venus (Shukra), the planet of beauty, harmony and material comfort. If you were born between April 20 and May 20, this guide covers your lucky stone, the classical Vrishabh Rashi ratna, and how to wear it.

Why Selenite Is the Vrishabh Rashi Stone
Vrishabh is the most grounded sign of the zodiac — patient, sensual, deeply connected to the physical world. Venus (Shukra) rules it with the energy of love, art and aesthetic refinement. Diamond is the classical Venus ratna, but a daily diamond bracelet is impractical for most. Selenite — the milky-white high-vibration crystal — carries Venus's purifying clarity at a fraction of the cost.
Selenite clears the heavy, stagnant energy that Taurus can accumulate when it clings to comfort. Worn daily, it gently dissolves emotional fog and lifts the Vrishabh spirit toward higher refinement.
Vrishabh Rashi Stone Benefits
- Clears stagnant emotional energy and "stuck" mental loops
- Supports aesthetic clarity and creative expression
- Balances the throat and crown chakras
- Eases the Taurus tendency to over-attach to comfort
- Brings high-vibration spiritual openness
Taurus Lucky Stone Alternatives
Beyond Selenite, secondary Vrishabh Rashi stones include Rose Quartz, Emerald and Opal — all Venus-frequency crystals.
How to Wear
- Begin on a Friday during Shukla Paksha.
- Bathe, sit facing east, recite Om Shum Shukraya Namah three times.
- Wear on left wrist (women) or right wrist (men).
- Cleanse weekly — but avoid water for selenite; use moonlight or sage smoke.
