Garnet at a Glance
| Property | Garnet |
|---|---|
| What it is | A family of silicate minerals rather than a single stone |
| Colour | Most often wine red to deep red; also pink-red, orange and green varieties |
| Hardness (Mohs scale) | About 6.5 to 7.5 |

Types of Garnet, and Is Garnet the Same as Gomed?
| Variety | Colour | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| Almandine | Deep red, sometimes brownish red | The classic red garnet used in most jewellery |
| Pyrope | Bright blood red | Often mixed with almandine in red garnet |
| Rhodolite | Raspberry or pinkish red | Used in our Eternal Bloom ring |
| Hessonite | Honey to orange-brown | Known in Vedic astrology as gomed, the stone of Rahu |
| Tsavorite and demantoid | Green | Rare garnets, not used in our current range |
So garnet and gomed are related but not the same: gomed is one specific garnet variety, hessonite. The red garnet in Keeta Luxury jewellery is not gomed. In Indian practice, red garnet is sometimes treated as a substitute for ruby and linked with Surya (the Sun), though astrologers differ. If you want to compare it with ruby itself, read garnet vs ruby.
Garnet Meaning and Who Should Wear It
In crystal tradition, garnet is associated with energy, passion, commitment and courage, and it is a popular gift between partners. It is the January birthstone, which makes it a natural birthday gift for Capricorns and Aquarians born that month. For astrological use, read who should wear a garnet ring, which covers rashi and finger, and the spiritual significance of garnet. These meanings come from tradition and personal belief.
