Garnets are such fabulous stones - they are like tiny rivers of red that pour over and over your wrist (or anklet) in such deep droplets of colour.  Each stone is smooth and polished and quite delightful to hold.

According to myth, during night and day, a garnet illuminated Noah's Ark and the skys turned black with rain. In Eastern Europe, this stone was said to protect the wearer from Vampires.  It was also worn by the Crusaders who believed it would light their way home. 

Garnets have been used through the ages to help release negative energy and to increase one’s sense of hope. They help you to build courage.

These stones also help for internal balance of energy as well as love, devotion, passion and courage.  Garnets help you to open your heart to love yourself as well as others. 

They also help to sustain a psychic shield in crowded places or where you feel uncomfortable.

It is associated with the Root Chakra and helps you to reawaken survival instincts - it helps to melt frozen feelings and fear.  Garnets are also a protection stone and helps you to overcome writers block and lack of inspiration.
