POWER STONES


Our love affair with stones is deep and long abiding. We lust for them, we use them daily in our lives and often we turn to them for guidance and surcease. Crystals have been used through the ages for all facets of life.

In olden times, Britons wore agates to protect their skin. Frogs carved from amber were worn by the ancients for fertility. During the renaissance an amethyst was commonly engraved with a bear and worn as a protective amulet. Bloodstone was used in the distant past by Egyptians to break bonds and crumble stone walls. They used carnelian to dissipate hatred and ground malachite for eye shadow. Rubies were known as carbuncles in former times and were deemed the perfect gift for Buddha. Ground turquoise was used by the Navajo in sand paintings to attract rain. The list goes on.

This book is geared toward today’s busy lifestyle. It’s not about teaching magic, though it deals with the magic in stones. Maybe you are dealing with a lot of negativity in your life and want a cheery little sunstone close at hand. “Power Stones” is designed to help you decide what crystals are best suited for your personal needs and lifestyle.

EXCERPT

One of the questions we invariably ask acquaintances is, “What is your favorite color?”

Color plays an important part in our lives. Yellow reminds us of warmth and cheer, gray brings to mind more neutral feelings and blue calms us like the rhythmic lap of the ocean.

Listed below are the meanings of colors. The capabilities of gems sometimes overlap into other color fields and share meanings. 

What is your favorite stone?  Does it represent your favorite color?

Pink symbolizes love and can be worn for long periods at a time. This color also represents acceptance.

Red stones heighten sexuality, boost creativity and energize.

Orange crystals are lovely stimulators, very sensual and energy boosters. Often good luck stones.

Yellow stones aid organization and balance emotions. Yellow crystals give control, wisdom and happiness.

Gold is the color of wealth.

Green stones, like pink, are heart stones. They give empathy and balance. They also help attain a healthy mental state of mind.

Blue stones aid in self-expression, communication and understanding. Blue stones are peaceful. Like the clear blue sky overhead, they calm.

Indigo blue crystals are cool and also calm. They heighten our state of consciousness.

Purple stones are spiritual, magic and royal.

Violet crystals give a heightened sense of spirituality and belonging.

Brown crystals, like the earth, ground and protect. They empower.

Black stones are also grounding stones and symbolize stability.

White stones are energy stones used to cleanse and purify.

Clear crystals are energy stones used for clarity and like white stones purify.
