Garnet: Balances hormones, good for mental depression, enhances self-esteem, alleviates bad dreams, and encourages success in business. Thought to assist in seeing into past incarnations. Healing properties include blood disorders, fertility and eases arthritis pain.As a gift it is a symbol of happiness and loyalty.

Hematite is calming to the emotions. Often called the 'worry stone' Hematite is a very grounding stone, cooling to the physical body. Can be used for fevers, to alleviate worry and anxiety as it allows for mental clarity. Worn or carried as an amulet to confer strength and procure favourable legal judgements. In Egypt, used to reduce inflammation and treat hysteria. Considered to be a grounding stone. Helps maintain balance between body, mind, and spirit.


I made someone in particular a rearview mirror dangly with garnet, hematite, one single blue goldstone, and a bone dragon.

Happiness. Loyalty.

GOLDSTONE (glass with flecks of copper) openness, honesty, relaxation, and sharing, transmitter stone, calming and refreshing.

Having problems finding properties of just *bone*, but I did find one site which lists the supposed properties of dinosaur bone:

DINOSAUR BONE - opens avenues of communication and insight, assisting one in understanding the Earth changes, the role of evolution, and stimulates the adverturesome nature.

Will continue looking on bone.

Thanks.

Oh, and it's *blue* goldstone. "In blackest night are scattered many small stars..."

Yes, but the usage was for either red or blue. The colour of the stone is just the colour of the glass, I believe. It's the copper that causes the properties, I'm guessing. And the glass. But changing the colour of glass doesn't change its properties, I don't think. Or not much, anyway. Not for this purpose.

Naturally.

I wasn't commenting on the meaning being inappropriate; rather, I was emphasizing the appropriateness of my choice.
