Believed in India mythology to be the fingernails of the God, Vala, Hessonite gems are considered the rarest of the planetary stones. "Like the yellow sapphire, golden hessonite is a good balancing stone. It calms the nerves, quiets the mind, relieves depression. This stone is recommended for almost everyone, as it counters the negative influences of Maya (illusion)."(1) The suggested minimum weight for these gemstones is 2 carats.
All gemstones are selected with the aim to provide the greatest benefits. The stones are as internally and externally free from inclusions and blemishes as possible. The principle here is that the larger and "cleaner" the stone, the better the results. (1)Ayurvedic Healing by Dr. David Frawley
