15 Mukhi Rudraksha and Mercury
Mercury governs intellect, speech, business, communication, skin. When Mercury is weak or afflicted in a chart — for example during its dasha — this bead is the traditional non-gemstone support. See Mercury in the houses for how Mercury behaves by placement.
Real vs fake — checking 15 Mukhi Rudraksha
Because the 15 Mukhi Rudraksha is very rare, fakes are common: carved extra lines, glued joints or a common bead re-cut. Insist on an X-ray or lab certificate before paying a premium.
A genuine bead has natural mukhi lines running from top to bottom, an uneven surface and firm weight.
