Cat’s Eye (Lehsunia – Ketu)
Cat’s Eye Chrysoberyl, associated with Ketu, is renowned for its sharp chatoyancy — a luminous band of light resembling a cat’s eye. The finest cat’s eye stones come from Sri Lanka, producing strong, well-defined eyes with high clarity. Other sources include India, Brazil, and Africa, though Sri Lankan stones remain the gold standard. The strength of a cat’s eye depends on the sharpness and centering of the eye effect. In astrology, it is worn for spiritual growth, protection from sudden losses, and karmic balance. Due to frequent imitations, certification is essential. A genuine cat’s eye exhibits a moving light band under a single light source.
