Smokey Quartz



Smokey Quartz is great for lifting depression and maintaining a calm, serene state of mind. Smokey Quartz is excellent for grounding and meditation, bringing a sense of joy. Smokey Quartz is slow at acting but has a long term effect. It is useful for protection. It helps us to be more discriminating, both in how to respond to people and situations and to distinguish between what we want and what we don't want in our lives. It helps us to release what is no longer needed. Smokey Quartz also has the ability to absorb any negative energy. This is an excellent stone to have at the front door of your house as a “gate keeper”.


Smokey Quartz is normally light to dark brown, if the colour is deeper black it has probably been heat treated.

Black Tourmaline

Black Tourmaline


Black Tourmaline This example has a natural, I have found this crystal very usefull for reflecting any form of negative energy.


Black Tourmaline does not absorb negative energy. It repels it. It is suggested to carry this stone when you feel surrounded by negativity. A valuable stone for crises and for periods of extreme stress. Helps you defend against debilitating diseases. Strongly suggested for persons with weakened immune systems.

Black tourmaline can be used to both repel and protect against negativity. It acts to protect one from being victimized by the negative energy of another. It has been used as an energy deflector, being an excellent stone for those with potential for exposure to excessive amounts of radiation. It provides for an increase in ones physical vitality, emotional stability, and intellectual acuity, and can maintain one “spirits” even in condition which appear to emit the message of “doom and gloom”

It furthers the awaking of altruism and enhances practicality in creativity. As a protective stone against “spells” which are cast by the negative side of another, it is a special stone to Native American Indians; black tourmaline in quartz not only dispels the “spell”, but energizes the “victim” and actually increases well-being; black tourmaline used with mica, returns the “spell” to the originating source and allows one to view the sender of the negative energies.

Black Tourmaline is also used to activate grounding between the first chakra and the centre of the earth, providing for further enhancement of ones well-being on the physical plane and protecting against those in the spirit world and or those on the physical plane who are not in the light and do not understand the love of the universe.

Black Tourmaline acts to stimulate the reflex points associated with the lower back. It can be used in treatment of arthritis, dyslexia, heat dis-ease, anxiety, and disorientation. It can provide for both the stimulation and the balancing of the adrenal glands.

Ruby in Serpentine & Graphite

Ruby in Serpentine & Graphite



Ruby with Serpentine & Graphite

As in life’s and Mother Earth’s ever changing stages, these same change’s take place within the Crystal & Mineral Kingdom. Although many stone’s that are conjoined as one still have the same offering’s as when they are not conjoined, there are those that actually change. Seeing it like wavelength’s of sound that sometime’s resonate yet sometime’s clash, this also describes how sometime’s the energy of conjoined stone’s must change in order to resonate.

Here Ruby is the focus stone, it’s energy resonating on a higher tuning than Serpentine and Graphite. Ruby can be a bit unruly at the best of times, yet here this stone is kept grounded by Graphite and softened by Serpentine.

The ‘Stone of Revival’, holding energies that help revive the mind, body and spirit. This form of stone is beneficial in the healing of the heart chakra and helping to revive it to its healthiest and most vibrant state.

Ruby in Serpentine & Graphite, is helpful in aiding the healing process out of depression and bringing a more positive and relaxed position.

A stone to life the spirit and revive the soul, bring back a spark for life and a healthy thirst for a positive future. Also a stone to revive lowered energy levels.

Time’s often do arise when one wishes to really move on in life, get going with many idea’s and plan’s. Ruby most certainly will nudge this attitude along with great enthusiasm, yet Serpentine shall bring one to a more spiritual and calm outlook with Graphite keeping one’s feet on the ground, so not to take on to much at once.

Use this lovely stone to calm and balance attraction’s of the heart and also bring one to a state of allowing oneself to be a bit more light hearted and enjoy the graduation of new attraction’s, and new relationship’s in order to not rush into anything.

Ruby in Serpentine & Graphite is a good stone to allow the bubbly side of one’s nature to awaken and enhance. To bring one to a more enthusiastic attitude and revive a wary soul.

“When one can face the day with a smile from the heart and a sparkle from the soul, one shall find that not all is so bad after all”

Also a stone to revive confidence, to take of the shroud that many gain through judgment or self-question. This is a beneficial stone for healer’s to bring the self to a more compassionate state and encourage the “healer’s aura” to strengthen. Alongside this, spirit messenger’s can also benefit in the same way, bringing an attraction to spirit being’s of love and of light.

“Use such offering’s to become the soaring bird, the seeking butterfly, to find one’s way with compassion and with enthusiasm”

A very special offering of this stone, is that it can awaken the mother, the father and the inner child in all, something that many beings could benefit from greatly.

A stone to revive tired and aching bodies as well as easing exhaustion and tired minds.

Last but not least, Ruby in Serpentine & Graphite encourages one to recognise positive qualities about oneself and to put them in to life, as well as reviving ‘forgotten’ talent.

A lovely and “Seek and Awaken” Stone.
