Gemstone Properties

Many people come into the store and ask me, "Why so many crystals?... What are they used for?" The following is an excerpt from Judy Halls' book "CRYSTALS" (ISBN: 978-1-78180-303-3):

"Powerful, potent and therapeutic, crystals have many uses. They actively engage with us, adapting themselves and revealing new possibilities. At the most basic level, they interact with our energy field and the environment around us. They help us to manage our wellbeing and protect our space, encourage us to relax and de-stress, cut off energy vampires and block out EMFs that may deplete us. They provide healing for us, our environment and the planet. But they do so much more too - they guide us, expand our awareness and facilitate journeying through other dimensions."

Platonic Solids

The Platonic solids feature prominently in the philosophy of Plato for whom they are named. Plato wrote about them in the dialogue Timaeus c.360 B.C. in which he associated each of the four classical elements (earth, air, water, and fire) with a regular solid. Earth was associated with the cube, air with the octahedron, water with the icosahedron, and fire with the tetrahedron. There was intuitive justification for these associations: the heat of fire feels sharp and stabbing (like little tetrahedral). Air is made of the octahedron; its minuscule components are so smooth that one can barely feel it. Water, the icosahedron, flows out of one's hand when picked up, as if it is made of tiny little balls. By contrast, a highly un-spherical solid, the hexahedron (cube) represents earth. These clumsy little solids cause dirt to crumble and break when picked up, in stark difference to the smooth flow of water. The fifth Platonic solid, the dodecahedron, Plato obscurely remarks, "...the god used for arranging the constellations on the whole heaven".
