Yemini Hakik cabochon (with blood shot)

From honeyed glow to blood-shot depths, this stone captures the raw, vital energy of a mountain’s heartbeat! This mind calming Yemeni Hakik cabochon features characteristic “Blood shot” inclusions of hematite. In Yemeni gemology, “blood-shot” Hakik (often referred to as Damawi or Kabadi) is highly prized for its deep red inclusions and “veined” appearance, which suggest a living pulse within the stone. This pattern and the deep red hues increase the perceived spiritual and physical potency of the stone in traditional belief. The “blood” within the stone is believed to directly boost the wearer’s Prana or life force, combating lethargy and physical exhaustion. In folklore, the red streaks act as a “shield of blood,” absorbing physical harm or accidents intended for the wearer. While standard Hakik calms, the blood-shot variety is said to “flush out” deep-seated anger and repressed trauma, replacing it with courageous warmth. The “veins” in the stone symbolize strength and resilience; it is often worn by those needing the “blood of a lion” to face difficult trials or enemies.
