Hessonite Garnet (Gomed) — FAQ

1. What is Hessonite (Gomed)?
Hessonite, commonly known as Gomed, is a warm honey-brown gemstone from the Garnet family. It is connected to Rahu (the North Node) — a shadow planet associated with ambition, clarity, and sudden opportunities.
Natural Gomed stones often show fine internal patterns or “giran”, which are natural growth signs, not cracks.
Its origin or cost doesn’t matter — what truly matters is that the stone is natural, well-cut, and has proper skin-touch, as that’s what activates its energy.

2. Who should wear it?
Those with a favourable Rahu in their horoscope, or anyone seeking clarity, stability, and protection from confusion or delays.
It can also be worn for specific goals like improving focus, overcoming fear, or breaking through mental blocks.
Always take authentic gemstone guidance before wearing.

3. Benefits

4. How soon does it work?

5. How to test suitability

6. Finger and metal
Wear on the middle finger of the right hand, set in silver, white gold, or 18k gold.

7. Best time to wear

8. Purification ritual

Om Rahave Namah

9. Ideal weight
Generally 2 to 7 carats or more, depending on your body weight and gemstone guidance.

10. Why do prices differ even when stones look similar?
Even if two Gomeds appear similar in cut, size, and color, prices differ due to transparency and hue.
A bright honey-colored, transparent Gomed is rarer and more valuable.
A slightly opaque or darker stone can be more affordable but equally effective if natural and skin-touch.
