About hessonite garnet

Oval cuts are the most versatile shape: they suit rings and pendants and tend to look larger for their weight. Hessonite (Gomed) is a honey-brown to orange-red garnet and the gem of Rahu in Vedic tradition. In Vedic practice a gemstone is normally chosen after a chart review by a qualified astrologer, since suitability depends on the individual horoscope. Tradition attaches meaning to the gem, but no result is promised.

FAQs

What weight is right for me?

Weight is a matter of budget, the size you want and, for astrological use, your astrologer's advice. A common rule of thumb in gemstone astrology is a weight in Ratti that relates to body weight, but recommendations differ between astrologers.

Is it advisable to consult before wearing?

Gemstone astrology suggests that suitability depends on your horoscope. Consulting first is common practice, and an astrological report is available on Brahmatells.

Is there a lab certificate?
