A few gemstones and their correspondences.

Tapping the Magick of stones today, most people wear gems because they are pretty. Witches, however, realize that crystals and gemstones can be used in spells, divination, meditating, dowsing etc.

Here are some suggestions:

  • Wear them to enhance your own personal energy field. -
  • Put them as Talismans or Amulets. -
  • Display them in windows or near doors of your home to provide protection. -
  • Infuse magick potions with them.
  • Meditate with them.
  • Dowse with a crystal or gemstone pendulum.
  • Display them on your altar to attract positive energy.
  • Offer them to spirits or deities in return for assistance.
  • Gaze into them to reveal the past or future, like a crystal ball.
