Cat's Eye
Lehsunia · Lahsuniya · लहसुनियाKetu
A stone with a single bright line across it — linked to Ketu.
What it is
Natural chrysoberyl cut as a cabochon so the chatoyant band — the "eye" — sits across the dome. The sharpness and centring of that band is most of the value.
What the classical texts associate with it
- intuition
- looking inward
- letting go of attachments
These are traditional associations recorded in the classical literature. They are not claims about what will happen, and nothing here is medical, financial or legal advice.
Certification
Supplied with a laboratory report identifying the species, the origin where determinable, and whether the stone is natural and untreated. The report describes the stone itself — it says nothing about results.
Choosing the right one
Sold by carat. Quartz cat's eye is a different and much cheaper stone often sold under the same name; the report distinguishes them.
Looking after it
- Wipe with a soft dry cloth. Avoid household cleaners and ultrasonic cleaners.
- Store separately — a harder stone will scratch a softer one.
- Remove before swimming or using chemicals.
