Three times a year I travel to India to sit with our astrologers and gemologists, read charts, select stones and commission jewellery.
Jyotish is a vast field, and gem prescription is a narrow specialisation within it. Reading a chart for life direction is one skill. Determining which stone will actually help you throughout your life, and support you in fulfilling your purpose, is a rare one.
It asks for exacting work: degrees, house lords, planetary strength and dignity, the dasha periods you are moving through, and the specific placements that decide whether a stone supports you or works against you. Two people can share a rising sign and need entirely different stones. Many capable astrologers read beautifully and are not equipped for this part.
Getting it wrong is not a neutral outcome. A stone prescribed for the wrong planet does not simply fail to work. It strengthens something in your chart that should have been left alone.
The astrologers I work with specialise in exactly this, with generations of lineage behind them, and it is their life's work. They do not do this for just anyone. I need to sit with them, ask for clarification on your behalf, and draw out the relevant detail in what they say, so that each reading lands specifically rather than generally.
The same is true of the stones. Each one is selected for you, certified, unheated and untreated, of a quality that is not bought from a website. Our world class gemologists open their vaults for me because I have known them for close to two decades. That access is the reason this offering exists, and it is why it can only happen a few times a year.
You provide your birth date, exact time and place at checkout. Nothing else is required from you at this stage. Your chart travels with me.
No. I need your chart to understand you, and to tune into what energy is most suitable, alongside the astrologers and gemologists. I receive a lot of requests for gems alone, but the relationship and the trust are built long before that, and they are an essential part of this work. I need to understand you in order to help you.
The astrologer assesses your planetary positions, looks across several charts for planetary movements, and identifies where you are supported and where you are strained. From there they prescribe the gemstones that strengthen weak planets and amplify what is already strong in you. You receive a written summary covering your life path, the challenges present now, and the talents worth building on.
A selection is curated for you, filtered by your prescription, your budget and your scope. We then meet by video call from the gemologist's table. You see each stone turned in the light, its colour, its clarity, its life, and you choose. Most people know within seconds which one is theirs. Often we go back and forth with stones, videos and images, so you have time to reflect.
We design together. Setting, metal, proportion, whether it sits as a ring or at the heart as a pendant. The stone is set open backed so it touches your skin directly, which is the point of the whole tradition. Most pieces are made in 18k to 22k gold. Silver is available where the prescription allows it.
The gemstone determines almost everything. Carat weight, origin and clarity will move a piece from one end of that range to the other. Because we select in person from an enormous working inventory rather than from a catalogue, there is almost always something right for you at the level you can meet. Tell me your budget honestly at the start and I will work within it. That is not a limitation on the outcome. A well chosen two carat gem will serve you far better than any stone that has been treated. All prices in AUD.
I do this because I love it. Because I have seen what happens when the right stone reaches the right person, and I know it is powerful. And because my clients trust me with something that matters to them, which is not a small thing to hand over.
Trust runs both ways here. You are trusting me with your chart, your budget and a decision you will wear for the rest of your life. I am trusting you to be honest with me about what you want, so I can do this properly. When both of those are in place, the work is extraordinary.
Shivjyoti · Founder, Shivoham
I cannot speak highly enough of my experience with Shivoham and the beautiful Jyotish rings that have come into my life. I now have three rings, and each one has marked a different chapter of growth and transformation for me.
From the Jyotish consultation and guidance, through to the careful selection of each gemstone and the creation of the rings themselves, the entire experience has felt incredibly personal, thoughtful and meaningful.
Over time, I have felt each ring support me in a different way, bringing greater clarity, confidence and alignment, opening new possibilities, and helping me recognise and step more fully into my own strengths and potential. Looking back at the journey from my first ring to my third, the transformation in my life and within myself has been quite remarkable.
Laura MarinescoI am so grateful for my ring that has been blessed by yourself, your astrology team and the source of the gem coming from sacred places and sacred hands. I have seen avenues open to improve my health since wearing it, clarity in my thoughts, and conviction to proceed with things that feel right for me.
Bobby D.Thank you Shivjyoti, Shivoham is truly magical, beyond words. I love my ruby ring so much, beyond anything I can put into words. It is beyond perfect. Thank you.
NadyaExcellent service and a very clear, in depth reading and advice. Compassionate, professional and honest with recommendations.
Roslin S.True spiritual awakening occurs with this process and the spectacular Vedic jewellery created.
Kate T.No. The entire process runs by video call and message. Clients across Australia and overseas commission pieces without ever visiting the studio. If you are in Melbourne and would like to come to Hampton before or after, you are very welcome.
An accurate birth time matters a great deal in Jyotish, so start by checking your birth certificate or hospital record. If it genuinely cannot be found, tell me at checkout. The astrologer can work from a rectified time, though the reading will be broader. I will be upfront with you about what is and is not possible.
Yes, people often do. The reading stands entirely on its own. There is no obligation at any point and I will never push you toward a piece.
No. If you have had a Jyotish reading elsewhere, or you study Vedic astrology yourself, we still like to clarify the prescription to be certain we are providing you with the correct gems.
Every gemstone comes with government laboratory certification confirming it is natural and unheated. Untreated stones carry their vibrational energy intact, which is the entire reason for what we do. There would be no sense in providing you with something tampered with. We are here to change and enhance lives.
This is the core principle of Vedic gemstone jewellery. The stone works by allowing planetary light to pass into your body, so the setting must be open at the back with nothing between the gem and you. It is also why the finger a ring is worn on is prescribed rather than chosen.
From the reading to the finished piece in your hand is usually eight to twelve weeks, depending on the stone and the complexity of the setting. Rare stones can take longer. I will always tell you honestly which it is.
I travel three times a year. Charts are read in the order commissions are confirmed, so the sooner you book, the sooner your reading is done. Once you have booked I will tell you where you sit in the queue and roughly when to expect your reading. If you would like to know before booking, message me and I will tell you honestly.
The reading is paid at checkout. For jewellery, the gemstone is quoted and paid for first, which secures it for you. The setting is the next step and is paid once the piece has been made. The making cost can only be finalised when the gem is set and the gold is weighed, so I will give you a range before we begin rather than an exact figure. Every gem is different. Some clients choose silver to start, as it is far less expensive and can be upgraded later. Invoices are sent and payment is made at each step.
The first step is your Jyotish reading. Everything follows from your chart.
