Rudraksha bead can also be used for astrological remedies besides religious or spritual purpose.
Each bead is identified by number of mukhs or vertical lines on the beads. Each type of Rudraksha bead is associated with a ruling planet, ruling god and beej mantra. One can choose a specific bead associated with ruling planet for which astrological remedy is sought. If you believe in astrology then there is no doubt that you will also believe in astrological remedies provided by wearing Rudraksha.
