In Sacred Crystals' Teaching

There are three basic varieties of Garnet; this variety is Almandine, which is also the variety known worldwide as simply "Garnet". Garnet is a stone of earthy passion. It is the number one stone I recommend for the Root chakra. It is a grounding stone that drips with the Sacred Masculine and can be an aid to those wanting to stand in that energy. Garnet is strength — a strength that reduces fear and worry to nothing, or inconsequential. It also increases awareness, like a scout on lookout for the greatest good of its sacred partner.

In a relationship, Garnet represents commitment. It is a deep and undying love stone: devotion, trust and honesty, with the sensuality of a romance-novel cover. It represents passionate monogamy, and for that reason is not recommended for poly relationships, where its energy may lead to an imbalance.

Garnet's commitment and passion can flow over into our work as well. Its infectious passion can turn work into art, and its commitment will assure you meet your deadlines and find new excitement in your work. It is especially helpful to entrepreneurs whose passion for their endeavors may wane with the mundane work that must be done behind the scenes to fulfill the dream. It offers protection against energy vampires — who are, in our view, humans in need — and against manipulators, drives our will to live and thrive, and can assist us in times of bereavement.

Chakras: Root and Heart.

About the Stone

Garnet is a family of minerals rather than one; Almandine, the deep red iron-aluminum garnet, is the one the world simply calls Garnet. Hard, tough and water-safe — its toughness is why it is also used as an abrasive.

Wearing & Care

Put earrings on last, after perfume, lotion and hairspray, and take them off for showers, swimming and sleep. Keep the pair together in a pouch so the stones don't rub against other jewelry. Sterling silver tarnishes slowly in air; a silver polishing cloth keeps it bright. Cleanse them with sage or moonlight.

A Note on Your Selection
