~10 Essential Crystals~ Amethyst Amethyst is known for healing, calming mental effect, enhances the meditative state, creates pure thoughts, spiritual insight, relaxation, higher values. Also transmutes negativity and enhances the dream state. Bloodstone Bloodstone is a source of protection to prevent injury and disease. Often used for blood purification and aids circulation. Carnelian Stimulates energy and appetite, physical power and courage, helps to ground you to the physical plane, practical application of ideas. Hematite Hematite is one of the most grounding of all stones; it reduces stress and combats insomnia. It is said to help increase courage, concentrate energy and strengthen the heart. It is very beneficial to those attracted to it, but it is one of those stones that you either love or hate. Malachite On brow: Stimulates physical and psychic vision and concentration. Egyptians used green Malachite paste for eye makeup, calling it Udju, they believed it gave them psychic protection. Moonstone This stone calms and balances emotional situations. Second sight, psychometric, aura reading, use in regressions, opens up psychic potential. Quartz Crystals Easy to cleanse, store info/energy in, program or amplify energy and healing with. Can both draw and send energy. Powerful clear ones open Brow, Crown, and Transpersonal Chakra for meditation, sending/receiving guidance. Stimulates natural crystals in body tissues and fluids to resonate at new healing frequency. Red Jasper Protection against unseen lower astral entities. Enables you to work with heavy negativity. Stabilizes emotions. Rose Quartz Rose quartz encourages relaxation, inner peace and tranquility. The stone enhances the ability to give and receive love. It is a stone that heals the heart emotionally and physically. Rose quartz is excellent in all matters dealing with love, affection, compassion and kindness. Tiger Eye A combination of earth and sun which would be practical in decision-making and creativity. Tiger Eye encourages the belief in self, objectivity, stability and inner strength. Work with the stone, fixate and meditate on them. Hold them and let their resonation calm and awaken you. In some ways working with stones is similar to working with familiars. They have personalities all specific to their own.
Take time to just be aware of the existence of the stone. Meditate on its state of being. Gaze into the face of the stone, especially those that enhance divination, it is similar to crystal ball gazing.
On the eve of a full moon, set the stones out to bath in the light of the moon for charging. 13 charges per year.
If you lose a stone, it was meant to be. Sometimes stones need to go back to nature and it is their time. And stones are not jealous when they are replaced.~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Hematite is an essential and a favorite of mine I carry some with my almost everywhere and I would wear my solid Hematite ring all the time if it was not so fragile.

 Can anyone identify this crystal? It was bought as something called 'DragonVein Jasper' I'm a little skeptical as the same stall was trying to sell me 'Azeztulite'...for those who don't already know about the Azeztulite scam, all it is, is low grade, highly flawed quartz, nothing more, nothing less.

A small addition....
Sodalite: often confused with lodestone. It is a stone for travelers and communicators. The surprising thing I found with this stone is it's use in healing the thyroid ^-^ (Something I need with my immune problem). I wear it as a necklace daily.

The two minerals don't even taste or smell the same. *is puzzled*

Still confused because lodestones look dark and rusty and sodalite is predominatly blue, black and white with russet patches. Meh, I don't know *shrugs*
Thank you. I've got three pendants of the same stone, all three of which will end up hanging off my staff.

I know people confuse sodalite and lapis lazuli, but if you look for the gold flecks (which are actually pyrite and indicate lapis lazuli) that will clear it up.

I see them only as tools, and like all tools, they're just as useful as the person using them.

I'd like to add that Tiger's Eye comes in two different types.
Red: Which speeds up your metabolism. And Blue: Which slows down your metabolism.
I can't remember what else there was about it.

broken_bleeding_angel I'd like to add that Tiger's Eye comes in two different types. Red: Which speeds up your metabolism. And Blue: Which slows down your metabolism. I can't remember what else there was about it. And don't forget green biggrin Though most only know about brown, red, and blue there's a green one too. I can't remember what it does; most of what's out there sold as green tiger's eye is really blue anyway, so you could probably go with the associations of Hawk's Eye (aka Blue Tiger's Eye).

I can't remember what else there was about it. Random Note: This goes along with a "diet" I found years ago called the aura diet lol. If you wore, ate and drank items in the red spectrum it would speed up metabolism and if you ate, wore, drank items on the blue spectrum your metabolism would decrease. Valid or not I have no clue, but was just reminded of it heh

I was wondering if anyone had any information on Quatro Quantum Silica? My info is pretty limited, but I know it's a combination of malachite, chrysocolla, shattuckite, smoky quartz, and dioptase. It also helps with aiding the immune system and with all chakras. ETA: Vox_Draconis  Can anyone identify this crystal? It was bought as something called 'DragonVein Jasper' I'm a little skeptical as the same stall was trying to sell me 'Azeztulite'...for those who don't already know about the Azeztulite scam, all it is, is low grade, highly flawed quartz, nothing more, nothing less. Went on an info dig, and it looks like "dragon vein" is really just a type of treatment with agates and jaspers.
