amethyst
(Color: transparent crystalline purple): Used to transform negativity and
strengthen the third eye vision or your intuitive sense.
Put it under your pillow or on the headboard of a bed for one who suffers nightmares or
disturbing dreams. Always have a piece in the room where you entertain outsiders, such as
friends or clients (and especially family!). This gem is good for headaches and preventing
overindulgence in alcohol.
topaz
Topaz is an empathetic stone that gives out its warm glow quite readily. When using
topaz, think of it in terms of the sun, sending out rays of warmth and light that are
soothing, healing and life-giving. Topaz is for those in crisis or in need of motivation.
It recharges and increases the user's energy level. Topaz radiates in all directions
equally, and you should learn from its example to project your own vision in more than one
direction. People who are problem solvers, such as those involved with the arts or
science, will benefit from topaz. Topaz is an excellent stone for relaxation and comfort.
It calms the nervous system and lessens tension, helping the user to become complete and
satisfied. The blood will also benefit from the use of topaz. Topaz also sheds light on
the path to your goals. It pierces the clouds that obscure inner vision and helps light up
the correct direction to pursue. Topaz helps us to tap our natural resources and allows us
to experience the joy of infinity. Those in tune with topaz's positive energy will feel
limitless and philanthropic. They will experience an increase in their personal abilities.
Topaz is best worn as a ring and is beneficial for those born under the signs of Leo,
Aries, Sagittarius and Gemini.
blue topaz
Blue Topaz is an excellent stone for communication. In meditation, it can be held
in your hand for communication with the Goddess/God or your higher self. In doing a
crystal layout, place a blue topaz on the throat. Physically, it will work for sore
throats or other problems in that area. On a higher level such as emotionally or
spiritually, it will work in the same manner as mentioned above for meditation.
