Benefits of Wearing Cat’s Eye Gemstone
Discovered in 1789 by famous geologist Abraham Gottlob Werner, Chrysoberyl is recognised as the true Cat’s Eye gemstone. Considered to be a rare beauty, the largest Cat’s Eye known as the ‘Eye of the Lion’ is owned by a descendant of King Rajasinha the First, a Sri Lankan ruler, and can be seen today at the Smithsonian Museum.
A.k.a Lehsunia stone, the Cat’s Eye can be found in yellowish-green, greenish-black, lemon yellow, pale yellow, bright yellow, brownish-yellow, and raspberry red hues.
This gemstone produces a unique and unusual optical effect called ‘chatoyancy,’ which is derived from the French phrase “oeil de chat” or ‘eye of the cat.’ When the light hits this gemstone, you can see a distinct band of white across the stone, resembling a Cat’s Eye.
Fun fact: The Cat’s Eye was a very popular choice for engagement rings during the 19th Century Victorian Era when the Duke of Connaught gave it to his beloved as a token of engagement.
Astrological Significance of Lehsunia
From time immemorial, gemstones have been used to beautify one’s appearance. But ancient cultures knew the intrinsic value of gemstones lay within the stones themselves.
Cat’s Eye is associated with the shadow planet Ketu in Vedic Astrology. This gemstone works as a mighty remedy for the Rahu-Ketu Dasha and is worn to treat the malefic effects cast by these shadow planets.
Cat’s Eye was worn for its healing and protective powers. Various colours of the Cat’s Eye demonstrate distinctive qualities and hold properties characteristic to their colours.
‘Milk Cat’s Eye’ or the ‘Honey Cat’s Eye’ is the most desirable choice amongst Cat’s Eye variants and is of the highest quality. This particular colour is best known for fulfilling your deepest wishes and desires.
