Hematite is excellent in bridging the essence of spirit directly into the earth’s denser frequencies. It stimulates the power of any innate, unseen creative energy. It can be used to strengthen the blood and circulatory system. Women can use Hematite during their menses to assist in promoting an easy flow. Useful for any blood ailment, it is especially helpful in strengthening the bloodstream from pollution and toxicity.

Herkimer Diamond
Herkimer Diamond is a generic name for an 18 faceted (6 sides) double-terminated quartz crystal discovered in and around Herkimer County, New York. Mined in the Mohawk River Valley since the late 18th century, are slowly reaching a diminishing amount, but can be found in abundance in Tibet and Afghanistan.
Amethyst Herkimer Diamonds have been found in Tanzania and Mexico; Herkimer with Rutile or Goethite have been found in Oaxaca, Mexico.
True Herkimer Diamonds are not actual diamonds but are known for their extreme clarity. They can also be found cloudy, smoky or even containing a variety of rare impurities. Impurities (rare and general) can include clusters, scepters, enhydro (containing fluid inclusions), phantoms and bridge crystals.
While the Herkimer Diamond has all the attributes of any clear quartz crystal, it is known as an “attunement stone;” you can use it to attune with another person or a particular environment.
The Herkimer Diamond is helpful for relieving tensions and physical stress. It has a soft and gentle energy that allows you to tap into yourself. The “you” that is larger than your daily self: your Higher-Self… your Inner-Self.
Working with a Herkimer also gives you a distinct insight of how to start a project, start over, or discover a solution previously hidden from sight. It can also be used to attune yourself with a new client or situation by getting in touch with its energy before you start something new. Having a personal large Herkimer cluster in your home or office that is in attunement with a smaller pendant or pocket-piece will keep the program of attunement, healing, or relationship continually in action.
The Herkimer Diamond will assist you in clearing the memory of fears and repressions from the past. You can create a very powerful crystal grid using four, six, eight, eleven or twelve Rose Quartz [tumbled, rough, or gallets] with one major center Herkimer Diamond or interspersed smaller Herkimer [four, eight, eleven or twelve]. One excellent grid is one of imprinting thoughts of love into a Herkimer cluster to infuse a personal environment with the well-being or to grid the earth with love.
Iolite
One of the major stones for the sixth and seventh chakras, Iolite can be used during healing sessions, meditations, and astral travel. It magnifies your inner vision and makes your symbolism more understandable. If you suffer from inner vision controlling, Iolite is a great stone to eliminate fears in the psyche. When you can make peace with these old fears, you can heal old wounds. Iolite is an aid for accessing past life information. So many of us are born with a past life overlay that unconsciously directs our present-day decisions. Use Iolite to help release these memories and find present-day freedom.
This mineral is sensitive to the spiritual changes and growth you are seeking. It is considered a powerful “medicine” in shamanic use. And, it can be used to ensure a vision or journey is accurate. It awakens and supports inner knowledge, so your self-trust of the visionary information is strong. Iolite also seems to support inner knowledge of direction and directional forces, so wearing or carrying Iolite is helpful in trusting your inner compass when setting a medicine wheel or finding direction during walks.
Iolite also facilitates acceptance of financial responsibility. So, this is a great stone to keep in your office, or in your wallet. It can strengthen the heart/mind connection, to enable a better understanding of the heart’s longings that the mind and emotions keep trying to satisfy.
Iolite can protect the condition of the liver and is thought to support your constitution to consume alcohol without feeling the effects of a hangover. This stone assists in clearing the body of toxicity from foods and the environment.
Indigo Gabbro
Merlinite
(Aka Mystic Merlinite)
Indigo Gabbro is a relatively new crystal mined in Madagascar and in various locations in Alaska. It has an amazing array of colors from light indigo purple to black. “Gabbro” refers to a large group of dark, coarse-grained mafic, or igneous rock, formed of silicate [SiO2, or quartz] that is rich in magnesium and iron. It has a chemical equivalent to basalt, but with decidedly different energies. Gabbro is an essential part of the oceanic crust.
Gabbro is a combination of multiple minerals containing feldspar, chlorite, serpentine, muscovite, pyroxene, hercynite, and magnetite in a charcoal colored matrix; it may also contain small amounts of olivine, chrome garnet, actinolite, and biotite; It can also contain valuable amounts of chromium, nickel, cobalt, gold, silver, platinum, and copper sulfides.
Indigo Gabbro, or Mystic Merlinite in its spiritual aspect, works to unify the two worlds… the one of spirit and the one of the earth. Acting as a bridge between the two realms, it creates a deeper understanding of one’s spiritual gifts and natural intuitive abilities. It is like an awakening bell for the long-forgotten memories that this time is asking us to reawaken to or remember. It can amplify your intuitive skills of clairvoyance, clairaudience, and clairsentience with even your plants and animal friends.
Working between the worlds, Indigo Gabbro also creates a bridge between the dark and light aspects of who you are. Seeing your patterns as not an expression of duality, but rather the balance between the positive and negative, the heavy and the light, the joyous and the trying. Because this is a time of balancing and accepting the duality within us, Indigo Gabbro shows us the dark and inspirational aspects working in harmony… not conflict. This time of healing the darkness – in ourselves, in our world – is a perfect opportunity for utilizing the Indigo Gabbro for its higher purpose [even as it helps us].
You can find a circuit of unity and alignment by placing an Indigo Gabbro sphere at the root chakra and a flat Indigo Gabbro at the crown chakra. By adding a Morganite crystal at the heart chakra, you will integrate not only the “above” and “below,” but also the fulcrum of who you are to find balance in an ever-changing world.
Indigo Gabbro is said to be useful in the treatment of “hot flashes”, cellular swelling and infections. It may alleviate the effects of fevers, and balance the alkalinity of the body. It may also correct disorders of the immune system, bruising, and sprains.
Jade
Jade grows in a multiple of colors but is most known for its deep green formations. It is not a particularly high vibrational stone, but more deeply enmeshed with the earth and the resonance of Earth’s formations and adjustments through time. Holding jade allows you to become settled or calm and in doing so it balances the emotions and soothes the mind.
Jade can remind you of the continuation of Earth, the constant flow of energy of the planet, and your personal commitment or involvement in being present on Earth at this moment. Its ancient frequency is often associated with Lemuria and Atlantis and the concepts of emotions and physicality from that time. Jade can be used to refresh past lifetimes and help resolve any residing fears or negative programming still unhealed.
This calm and solid stone can cleanse the unconscious mind for sleeping and bring clarity to dreams. It can aid in your self-realization and self-awareness. Use Jade for settling into a new space, home or office; it will give you the energy of finally landing or coming home and aid in adjusting to the new vibration and location. Location is not just in regard to the building you are in, but the actual longitude and latitude of the actual location. And, as the earth continues to speed up and resonate with newer frequencies, Jade will hold the older frequencies and help with the energy shifts. In your new office, Jade can support clear headed decision making and will be your lucky stone for attracting money, well-being and luck.
Most usually associated with the fourth chakra due to its green coloring, Jade also works well with the abdomen and pregnancy. Keep a piece of Jade by your beside when trying to conceive and carry Jade with you throughout the day for stabilization of your energy and giving the new soul a lode stone, or grounded focus, to settle around as well as the parental energies.
Use Jade for any lower body problems such as gall bladder, liver kidneys, spleen, bladder or issues in the abdomen or digestive problems. It can settle these areas and calm them from worry and feelings of inadequacy.
Jasper
Supreme nurturer; strengthens the physical body; brings one closer to the earth plane. Good for grounding; treats deterioration of kidneys, spleen, bladder, liver, and stomach. Associated with the first, second, and third chakras.
Jet
A form of fossilized wood. Absorbs negativity; can adapt to your energy structure; learns your personal fears and protects you from them; relieves pain originating from fear; teaches trust; useful against nightmares; eases anxiety and depression. A one-person stone. Associated with the second and third chakras.
Kunzite
Kunzite, the second of the Heart Chakra Trinity stones, expresses the love that grows inside us. Letting go of old fears and sorrows is possible aa you work with or wear this stone. Energy moves through the striations of this stone at a more accelerated rate than with other stones.
Anyone wearing Kunzite will experience a raised vibration, as will anyone close to the wearer. You will also find negative energies and thoughts more easily dissolved when wearing Kunzite.
Kunzite touches deep within the Lode Star of the heart re-establishing forgotten dialogues of the Heart’s Purpose and the Soul’s Desire. After wearing Kunzite you will find your abilities to communicate love, understanding and compassion re-awakened. Kunzite tells you to stay in the present, express love to yourself and shine that love out to everyone you meet.
Kyanite
Kyanite is a dark blue, striated mineral with occasional colorless or light blue, green or pink inclusions. It is found mainly in Brazil but also Switzerland, India, and parts of the USA. Kyanite is a blue aluminosilicate mineral, usually found in aluminum-rich metamorphic pegmatites and/or sedimentary rock. When found in metamorphic rocks it generally indicates growth during high internal pressures. It most commonly grows in quartz formations.
Because Kyanite grows in striations, this stone successfully carries electrical impulses through its core (much like telephone lines). It is highly successful in transmitting these electrical impulses through the human nervous system and the brain cells. It easily identifies the similarities of its growth patterns and the linear nervous system and acts in accordance with these patterns. It helps realign the matrix along these pathways for original blueprint configurations.
Kyanite’s job is especially important as you alter your dimensionality into the Fifth dimension and beyond. As it connects the light body with the causal plain it reawakens the energetic impulses of the Causal Chakra for clearer insight and communication with other dimensions. Use this stone for inter-species communications and for inter-dimensional dialogues. Kyanite assists in reminding you who you really are. This stone will help you to Remember.
Use Kyanite with Phenacite to strengthen higher consciousness and the ascension process. This combination will enhance the Third Eye/Crown Chakra connection as it stimulates the communication skills of physical with spiritual beings. These two will open the doorway to inner planetary vehicular for intergalactic travel, shamanic journeying, and a greater understanding of sacred geometric forms.
