Garnet
is a regal looking, often translucent crystal. Red garnet has a real depth of colour. If it were a little scarcer it would
probably be a really expensive stone. It is a stone of health, physical strength and energy. It helps activate ones internal
fire, ones charisma and thirst for life. Garnet is a good stone to wear or have around you when you wish for order and balance
in your life. It is a stone of emotional warmth and commitment, often used to demonstrate this between couples.
