Number 3 (Guru)

Number 3 and Guru: the teacher's number

If your birthday falls on the 3rd, 12th, 21st or 30th, your mulank is 3 and Guru (Jupiter) rules it. Threes are usually cheerful and love sharing what they know, so you find many of them as teachers, counsellors and team leads. People trust their advice. Where they slip is spreading themselves too thin. Ten ideas get started, a few get finished, money comes in and goes out just as quickly, and now and then a know-it-all streak puts people off.

Example with the 30th

3 + 0 = 3. For the 21st, 2 + 1 = 3. For the 12th, 1 + 2 = 3. All three dates point to Guru.

Building a Guru remedy step by step

The Numerology 3 Bracelet, made with Yellow Aventurine, is the first piece. Put it on a Thursday. The Citrine Bracelet is the natural second one; Citrine is linked with Jupiter and abundance, and many people with mulank 3 wear the two together.

For something with deeper tradition behind it, go for the 5 Mukhi Rudraksha Bracelet & Pendant. It is Guru's Rudraksha and lab-certified. Keep the Guru Yantram in the north-east of your puja ghar, offer yellow flowers on Thursdays and chant "Om Graam Greem Graum Sah Gurave Namah" 108 times. For school and college students, parents usually go with the Padhaai Mein Success Kit; more in study and focus and Guru remedies.
