About

Hessonite, widely known as Gomed in Hindi, is a distinctive gemstone from the garnet family, displaying warm hues ranging from honey yellow to reddish cinnamon. Made from calcium aluminium silicate, this stone holds strong significance in Vedic astrology, where it is associated with the shadow planet Rahu, often referred to as the “Dragon’s Head” in Western astrology.
In Vedic tradition, Hessonite is revered for its power to reduce confusion, fear, and uncertainty, helping the wearer regain control during tough karmic phases like Rahu Mahadasha.
In addition to its astrological importance, Gomed is considered a healing gem that restores energy balance, supports mental clarity, improves emotional stability, and opens doors to financial and career success. It is also cherished by spiritual seekers for its ability to deepen meditation and intuitive power.

Who Should Wear

Gomed is not for everyone and should be worn only when Rahu's influence is active or disruptive in the birth chart. It is highly recommended for:

• Aquarius (Kumbh) ascendants in Vedic astrology to neutralize Rahu’s malefic effects.
• Gemini (Mithun) signs in Western astrology, as Rahu energy impacts them intensely.
• Libra (Tula) signs to improve emotional equilibrium and overcome workplace challenges.
• Taurus (Vrishabha) natives for steady income and financial clarity.
• Anyone going through Rahu Mahadasha or Antardasha, which may bring illusions, setbacks, or mental restlessness.
• Students, speakers, and professionals who need to boost communication, especially in interviews, public speaking, or competitive exams.
• Those struggling with mental fog, unexplained fears, or karmic imbalances.

How to Wear

To achieve full astrological benefits, wear Hessonite by following these Vedic guidelines:

• Metal: Preferably set in silver, though panchdhatu and white gold are acceptable alternatives.
• Best Time: Saturday, during sunrise (5–7 AM) for best effect.
• Mantra: “Om Rang Rahave Namah” (ॐ रां राहवे नमः) 108 times.
