Gomed Gemstone Wearing Guide: Who Should Wear Hessonite?
Hessonite, Gomed, Gomeda, Gomedha are various names for the same
stone that represents the planet Rahu in Vedic astrology. While nine planets in
our solar system influence different zodiac signs, Rahu and Ketu are not
considered official planets. Rahu is considered a malefic planet and is
associated with Ketu, another malefic planet. To counter the ill effects of
Rahu, people wear Hessonite, also known as Gomedha, which is a part of the
garnet mineral family and affects human energy fields.
Gomed stones have a yellowish-brown to maroonish color,
resembling honey or cow's urine, hence the Hindi name 'Go-medicine'. It is
recommended for people going through the toughest phase of Rahu Mahadasha.
There is a misconception that Hessonite should not be worn by pregnant women or
women in general due to its association with a demon god, but anyone can wear
it as it offers significant benefits. However, it is not effective for children
and should only be worn by those over 25 years old, with no upper age limit.
If you wish to wear a Gomed stone, it is essential to understand
its negative effects and the correct time and method of using it.
