TL;DR — The 6 Mukhi Rudraksha is ruled by Lord Kartikeya and the planet Venus (with a Mars influence).

Wear on a thread or in gold/silver, on a Friday, with Om Namah Shivaya. Certified beads at Divine Hindu, Jayanagar.
The 6 Mukhi Rudraksha balances the head and the heart. Ruled by Kartikeya, the warrior son of Shiva, and the planet Venus, it combines willpower and discipline with charm, grace and emotional steadiness. It is a wonderfully versatile bead — grounding for the restless, motivating for the distracted, and softening for the harsh. Here is the complete guide from our Jayanagar rudraksha desk.
What is the 6 Mukhi Rudraksha?
The 6 Mukhi has six natural lines and is governed by Lord Kartikeya, with Venus (Shukra) as its primary ruling planet and a supporting Mars influence. Venus brings charm, relationships and the finer things; Kartikeya brings focus and command — a balanced, grounding combination.

Original vs fake — what to check
A genuine 6 Mukhi has six naturally formed lines running unbroken end to end over a firm woody surface. Carved fakes show shallow, too-uniform grooves. Nepali beads are larger and well-defined; Java beads smaller. Always choose a Govt. Certified / lab-tested bead. At Divine Hindu every rudraksha is verified original.
