Beads whose presiding deity is traditionally given as Lord Surya.
Surya is the Sun god, the visible source of life and the lord of the planets in Jyotish.
The 12 Mukhi is his bead, and it is also called the Aditya bead after the twelve forms of the Sun. It is worn for confidence, leadership and authority, and it is the more available alternative to the 1 Mukhi for people who want a Sun bead.
| Bead | Presiding deity | Planet | Chakra | Rarity | Worn traditionally for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 12 Mukhi | Lord Surya (Aditya) | Sun (Surya) | Ajna (Third Eye) | Moderate | Confidence, leadership, recognition, decision-making, bone and vitamin-D health |
12 Mukhi. Attributions of this kind are recorded differently in different sources, so you may see other beads listed elsewhere.
Each bead has its own beej mantra. 12 Mukhi: Om Kraum Sraum Raum Namah. It is traditionally chanted when the bead is first worn.
These are traditional associations recorded in Vedic and Puranic sources. They are described here as tradition, not as medical or therapeutic claims, and no bead is a substitute for medical care.
