A powerful stone, garnet provides energy, and restores. It cleanses chakras and provides them with new energy, too. Gives vitality, frees from secondary substances, and balances energy: depending on what the wearer needs, it brings peace of mind or passion.

Allegedly, garnet is able to warn of danger, and it used to be worn as a talisman.

Garnet inspires love and trust. Balances sexual urge and relieves emotional discord. Red garnet stimulates the rise of kundalini energy, and is helpful to problems with sexual potency. It is a stone of love. It tunes the heart to love’s energy, gives feelings vitality, and enhances sexuality and inner passion. Helps control anger—especially anger towards yourself.

It is also a stone of taking responsibilities, and it’s a great thing to have in moments of crisis because it helps out of situations where an escape is nowhere to be seen, and shows a ray of hope when life has broken to pieces. It strengthens, activates, and supports survival instinct, bringing courage and hope to seemingly hopeless situations. Garnet turns crises into challenges. It also advances mutual support in difficult times.

Garnet has a strong connection to pituitary, and it may stimulate broader awareness and the remembering of past lives. This beautiful red gemstone also activates other crystals and amplifies their effect.

Health and Healing

Psychologically, it strengthens the perception of oneself and other people. Dissolves deep-rooted patterns that are no longer necessary, and aids in impeding subconscious self-sabotage.

Mentally, it helps discharge old and spent ideas.

Emotionally, it gets rid of exclusions and taboos. Opens up the heart and provides self-confidence.

Physically, it restores the body and spurs metabolism. Heals spine and cell damages, cleanses and gives new energy to blood, lungs and heart as well as restores DNA. Garnet contributes to the absorption of minerals and vitamins.
