Garnet, a red-colored stone of passion, is not a gemstone but a precious stone.
Garnets in their uncut, precious state are not expensive power stones, and are sold at relatively low prices.
Garnets are said to have the power to bring forth energy from their red color, which is said to enhance mental strength, overcome anxiety, and give courage.
It is also said to be a stone that gives us the power to carry out our goals, as it has the meanings of effort, steadfastness, perseverance, persistence, and improvement.
Garnets are also said to have strong defensive powers and protect against negative energy.
If I do a crystal reading and it comes up that I need a garnet, I read it as “spinning out of control”.
Garnets have the effect of bringing steady effort to fruition, but the opposite is true if the reading shows that garnets are needed.
We think that because we are in a state of lack of steadfastness, we need the energy of steadfastness and that’s why we got garnets.
So what is the state of no steadfastness? It is a state of impatience.
Being in a hurry means that one’s thoughts are muddled and only one’s feelings are running ahead of one’s mind.
So if I get a garnet, I read it as a spinning state.
