Quartz Cat’s Eye (Quartz Lehsunia) - 9 Ratti

Quartz Cat’s Eye, also known as Quartz Lehsunia, is a variety of quartz exhibiting a distinct cat’s eye effect (chatoyancy) due to fine needle-like inclusions within the stone. Generally found in shades of grey, brown, greenish-grey, or yellowish tones, it is sourced from regions like India, Brazil, and Madagascar. Astrologically, Quartz Cat’s Eye is considered a substitute for Chrysoberyl Cat’s Eye (Lehsunia) and is associated with Ketu, the shadow planet of spirituality, detachment, intuition, and sudden karmic changes. Though milder in effect compared to Chrysoberyl, it is worn to protect against evil eye, negative energies, and accidents while enhancing concentration, mental clarity, and spiritual growth. Best suited for individuals seeking a budget-friendly alternative for Ketu’s pacification, Quartz Cat’s Eye should be worn on the middle or little finger in silver on a Saturday, after proper purification and energization rituals, to bring stability, protection, and inner strength in day-to-day life.
