What is in a Name – Just Make Sure You Get the Correct Gem

Natural Hessonite

There is so much than one can get confused with in the world of colored gemstones. Let alone the genuineness, there is a possibility that one can get really befuddled by several names a gem goes by! Usually a gem is given a fancy name to add to the romance or appeal.

Hessonite garnet is orange grossular that also goes by the name of Cinnamon stone. One may also get to hear the Hindi equivalent of gomed or gomedhaka or the Persian names of Zargun or Zarcunia.

The hessonite garnet is richly hued gem with a warmth to its appearance and glow of embers within. A good natural hessonite is all this and also displays a ‘roiled heat wave effect’ – a dreamy cognac in water like appearance or as if a heat wave is on within!

How Will You Tell the Real Gem from the Fake? Will the Real Slim Shady Please Stand Up…

February 22, 2013 by gemstoneuniverse 1 Comment

How Will You Tell the Real Gem from the Fake? Will the Real Slim Shady Please Stand Up…
Natural Hessonite Silver Ring

It is quite likely in any part of the world that one may invariable find garnets to be a part of jewelry that has been handed down generation to generation. It has been a popular gem throughout. The name garnet has been taken from the appearance of the garnet crystals that appear in a literal seed like arrangement, akin to that within a pomegranate.

Garnets as a species cover a wide variety and colors from alamandite, pyrope, uvarovite, demantoid, rhodolite etc. From a planetary gem therapy perspective, the most important garnet is hessonite garnet. It is a grossular garnet found in Srilanka as well as in some pockets of Brazil.

The world of gemstones is very complicated and even more so as the awareness regarding gems is very limited. Just to give you an idea, here are some of the look-alikes of the cinnamon stone – the hessonite garnet.

Brown zircon

Brown Zircon

The cognac like rich color is appreciated much in natural zircon.

Brown topaz

Brown Topaz Ring courtesy rakuten.com

Brown Topaz is sometimes irradiated to get a richer color.
Brown tourmaline

Brown Tourmaline courtesy mindat.org

Madeira citrine

Madiera Citrine courtesy igoodin.com

Named after the famous Portuguese Madeira wine, for its red brown, honeyed caramel color, this is a warm gemstone.

Coming to the real question – while these are just a few look-alikes, and if one throws in the glass imitations, the synthetics etc too. , how would you differentiate between the real and the other masquerading goods? The price for each species differs! Here is where the deeper factors like specific gravity, refractive index etc. of the materials come into play.

Gemstoneuniverse gives you the advantage of certainty and provides certification for each of its gems. The certificate from a gem lab ensures and lists vital descriptions for you as a buyer and ascertains that you get what you ask for!

This is not just true for hessonite but any gem available on www.gemstoneuniverse.com

Pindajpravararoodha chandkopaastrakairyuta !

Prasaadam tanute mahyam chandraghanteti vishruta !!

The goddess Chandraghanta derives her name as she has a crescent moon (Chandra) shaped bell adorning her forehead. Aside of being an ornament, the sound of this bell (ghanta) is believed to fill the evil creatures with dread, as she readies herself and advances to vanquish them. Goddess Chandraghanta is depicted as a radiant beauty with golden aura. She is shown having ten arms and three eyes, riding a lion who symbolizes upholding of â€˜dharmaâ€™ with a fierce passion.

Manipura chakra

Out of her ten hands, she holds different weapons in eight, one hand is in the abhaya mudra and the other one is wish granting, boon giving pose. This is the day when the meditation is centred on the Manipur Chakra or the Solar plexus. Manipur literally means the â€œcity of gemsâ€. In this meditation, you have the potential to discover the richness inherent within your being. The core of the chakra is a fiery triangle contained within the centre if a dashdalpadma or the 10 petalled lotus with dark blue petals.

Comments	A thing of beauty is a joy forever and nothing reiterates this fact more than precious, gorgeous gemstones. Individuals can combine more than one gemstone into a singular talisman and still get optimum benefits. One need not sacrifice personal preference / comfort for planetary gem therapy – where there’s a will there is a way!Featured today is a marvellous three gem pendant (tri-ratna) which has a natural burn cinnamon color Ceylon Hessonite of 3.23 carats, a fantastic checkerboard-cut natural olive color peridot from China of 2.20 carats and a natural Blue Moonstone (with great adularescence/ schiller) of 2.09 carats from India. All the gems are completely natural and treatment free and have been set in a sterling silver talisman pendant. Noteworthy is the fact that it is not just an ordinary pendant but is a planetary bhasma pendant where the sacred herbal ash of the planet associated with each gem sits concealed in the tubular design element surrounding the gem.

– Hessonite also known as gomedh/ gomedhaka is the gemstone of the North node of the Moon or planet Rahu. The sacred herbal ash or bhasma of the Doorva grass, which is the planetary herb of Rahu, is concealed in the tube design around the hessonite gem.

– Likewise, the peridot or the zabarjad â€“ the substitute gem of natural emerald/ panna, the gemstone of Mercury/ Budh has the apamarga bhasma (planetary herb of Mercury) sealed in the tube design.

– And lastly, the natural Blue moonstone or chandrakant mani, the substitute gem of natural pearl and also the repository of Lunar energies, has the palash bhasma (planetary herb of Moon) sealed in the design around the Moonstone.

Many individuals are uncomfortable with too many rings or for that matter even a single finger ring. It is a personal trait. Similarly, there are lines of work that require individuals to remove finger rings for instance, those in the medical profession. In such cases, implementing planetary gem therapy as a pendant works the best, rather than removing and re-wearing the rings all the time the latter is a sure way to render gem therapy almost ineffective.

Planetary gem therapy requires that gems, once consecrated and energized be worn on person, without removing to gain optimum benefits.
