gemstone lore

People love gemstones not only for their look and feel, but for the vibrations they emit. Since we're all energy, it makes sense that we respond to the vibrational force and timeless story that gemstones tell us. 

Some crystals are known for healing, some for protection, and others soothe negativity and calm the spirit. Whatever stone catches your eye or lore speaks to you, that's the stone you need at the moment.
