Gomed stone or Hessonite Garnet is a mighty astrological gemstone of Rahu shadow planet. The power it has is fiery, transformational, and it even changes deeply, and therefore the question of what metal to wear it in is as far as I can see, equally important as picking the stone itself. The metal brightens the gemstone’s peaks and makes the new power flow more smoothly into the man of the new power. So what metal is good for Gomed stone? Let's have a look at the metals that are most suitable according to Vedic astrology.

1. Silver – The Most Recommended Metal
The best and most widely recommended metal for Gomed stone is Silver. Its calming and cooling nature is exactly what is needed to tame the powerful and sometimes even chaotic energy of Rahu that is the Gomed stone.
So here are the reasons for many people to use silver for Gomed:
It moderates the fiery, erratic Rahu influence
Deepens the stone’s stabilizing features
Makes the wearer emotionally balanced
Sharpens the intuition and mental clarity
A silver setting for Gomed helps adsorb and normalize Rahu's energy and therefore keep the whole thing working smoothly without too much power.
2. Panchdhatu – A Strong and Traditional Choice
Panchdhatu is a combination of five metals (gold, silver, copper, zinc, and tin) and thus an excellent metal for Gomed. It appears in the Vedic traditions as an eco-friendly, spiritual, and life-enhancing metal and is believed to be the ultimate health-giving metal for the earth.
Panchdhatu is perfect for those:
Experiencing Rahu Mahadasha
Emailing
Needing an energizing and protective guard
Its multi-metal mixture not only strengthens the Gomed but also makes it more protective.
3. Gold – Suitable in Special Cases
There is a little explanation for gomedhikam stone not to be paired with Gold, but still, gold can be an option of choice when the astrologer gives the nod. Gold is full of light and love, and when adding it to Gomed, it can give Rahu a rather strong and not necessarily negative impulse. It can be useful for the people who are in heavy professions or who want to develop strong leadership skills.
In fact, a gold choice should be warranted with an astrologer's approval only to maintain equilibrium.

How to Ensure Maximum Effectiveness
If you want the best effect out of Gomed, wear it in the middle finger of your right hand
It is better to use silver or panch dhatu for the best effect
Wear Gomed on a Saturday evening at Rahu Hora
Make sure the gemstone is real, unprocessed, and lab-certified
Final Thoughts
One of the things that can greatly affect the power of gomedhikam stone is choosing the right metal. To sum up, Silver stays the most liked metal for the purpose because of its soothing energy while Panchdhatu is just as potent for the seekers of deep celestial benefits. Besides, under special circumstances, Gold may be viable but certainly only after a professional's nod.
