Did you know?
The primary use for gems throughout history has been for healing and spiritual rituals. Although gems were rare and exhibited great beauty, the reason they were so precious was due to the power they imparted to their wearers.
Gems are storehouses of empowerment, transmitted through contact with one’s body. Kings and queens would have gemstones set in their crowns to obtain their potencies. They connected the monarchs with forces enabling them to rule guided by cosmic energies. Priests of different religions used gems in rings for similar reasons.
The inherent powers of gemstones are recognized by modern science in the technological uses of crystals in watches, lasers, and computers, but the more subtle potencies, such as their ability to promote physical healing in the body, or their power to help balance human emotions, elude modern science.
Crystal Remedy Reference – by Andrew Pacholyk MS, L.Ac:
Through clinical findings in my practice, theological and metaphysical experiences from ancient times to the present day, as well as, associations through color, vibration and other forms of energy medicine, this list has been compiled. There is room for more stones in each category and by no means is an exhuasted list. It is a jumping point for anyone seeking adjunct therapy to other forms of healing. This is a quick reference to match ailments with crystals. Please note any warning and safety issues regarding their use.
