Question

-Mostly astrologers ask about date of birth, timings etc, for calculation and determining one’s “STAR” and its related “LUCKY BIRTH STONE”. My problem is that my date of birth in my school record is 20th, July,1940, whereas in my family pedigree (it is mentioned as 20th,March 1942.I do not know whichever is authentic /correct. Is there any other way for determining one’s star and lucky birth stone, without considering date of birth? Can you help me in this connection? Also let me know source of getting genuine stone?

Dear Sir Interesting dates for you as both at end of cycle of 20th

July is Ruby.
