Hessonite Garnet Tumble

Historical and Mythological Background

Hessonite is a golden-brown variety of grossular garnet, long admired in jewelry for its rich “cinnamon stone” color. Its name comes from a Greek root meaning “lesser,” referring to its softer, more resinous luster compared to other garnets. In Vedic astrology, hessonite is commonly associated with Rahu and is traditionally worn as a talisman for protection, clarity of direction, and overcoming obstacles on one’s path.
