Guest guest Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Hessonite Gemstone Rahu and Its Gemstone Hessonite (Gomed)Like other planets of the solar system Rahu & Ketu are not the mass of light. Some scholars consider them as moon falls (chandrapat), some of them call them shadows of the earth. Some of them call the shadow of the north pole as Rahu and of the south pole as Ketu. In spite of all the above facts, Rahu and of Ketu show their far-fetched influence over the man and all other beings. Therefore Rahu-Ketu's presence can never be ignored.Although Rahu rules no sign of the zodiac the zodiacal sign Virgo is its sign. Virgo is in fact assigned to Mercury. Zircon (Gomed) is related to Rahu. Its colour is like the colour of cow's urine. It has also the shade of honey tinged with blackish colour. If Rahu is powerful in man's horoscope, it causes or bears many diseases, like mental strain, disturbance in abdomen. Man afflicted by Rahu faces hindrances in his business, struggles in life, continuous shortage of money, disturbed conjugal career, quarrel between husband and wife, a situation to be divorced and nightmares. Hessonite gemstone is also useful to those who want to get success in law practice, court affairs government service, political spheres, gambling or any unsocial, illegal activities. Enemies can't stand longer before the wearer of Gomed. Blue and green hessonite or the white colorless variety of hessonite are not associated with Rahu. A pure and transparent gomed gemstone having a delicate hue, brilliance, luster, and uniform color neutralizes the evil effects of Rahu, and if Rahu is well posited it gives beneficial results during its major period and subperiods, removes fear, creates clarity of mind, and helps spiritual growth.
