No gemstone is more creatively striped by nature than agate – technically, chalcedony quartz that forms in concentric layers in a wide variety of colors and textures. Each individual agate forms by filling a cavity in its host rock, resulting in round nodules, with bands like the rings of a tree trunk, looking like eyes. It is believed to bring good fortune, health, wealth and long life. As well as quenching thirst and preventing fevers, Persian magicians used agate to divert storms and athletes to increase vitality. It's also said to bring self-confidence by banishing fear. Some swear that wearing these beads can heighten the spiritual consciousness and balance the body's physical and mental states. Carnelian is another stone from the quartz family, usually bright orange to reddish orange, and is translucent to clear. Carnelian is for confidence. Said to help blood disorders and eliminate toxins from the body. It makes you feel anchored and comfortable with your environment. Allowing you to pause and reflect, while feeling settled and more secure. It also stimulates energy that influences the reproductive organs; hence it’s long use as a fertility symbol. A good stone for people starting new projects or who feel they are going nowhere. It motivates, allowing you to find the energy to make the most out of life.
Coral is not a true gemstone, but a product of marine life. It is said to reduce blood flow, helping anaemia, and is thought to give wisdom and prevent madness. Its color ranges from white to red. It grows in branches that look like underwater trees. Most of this coral is found in the Mediterranean Sea or in the Pacific off Japan and Taiwan.
