8 mukhi is the second form of reflection of the first son of Lord Shiva, Lord Ganesh and is one who is worshipped prior to other gods. Eight linings present on it makes it a very effective Rudraksha. Its wearer becomes unaffected by miseries physical, divine or mental. It sets the wearer free from the sin caused by telling a lie. It gives the wearer all kinds of attainments Riddhies and Siddhies and leads him to Shivloka. His opponents are finished i.e. the minds or intentions of his opponents are changed and all obstacles in his path are removed. Ganesha rules over planet Ketu, hence wearing this rudraksha removes malefics of planet Ketu. A malefic ketu may cause injuries, accidents, surgery and diseases. Wearing 8 faced rudraksha keeps a check on the malefic effects of the planet Ketu. Ideal for writers and intellectuals.
