Laurasia,

This was my response..just thought I would share it here.

AQUAMARINE, like emerald, is a form of beryl. This is the birthstone for March.
This lovely blue stone is a very feminine, receptive stone. Aquamarine is an excellent stone to use for balancing your emotions. Whenever you feel out of control, hold an aquamarine in your left hand and meditate on it's peaceful vibrations. No one can stay angry long in the presence of an aquamarine. This beautiful sea-colored stone is sacred to the Ocean Mother. As such, it has a calming effect on troubled emotions.

This stone is a wonderful tool for enhancing your psychic abilities. Wear or carry aquamarine whenever you feel the need for heightened intuition. An aquamarine placed on the table helps to give a more insightful Tarot reading.



Whenever you have to fly over water, or go out on a boat, always carry an aquamarine with you for protection. Use this stone to invoke Water spirits.

If you wipe away tears of sorrow with an aquamarine, legend has it that you will soon be shedding tears of joy. Another interesting legend says that if the pure of heart carry an aquamarine to the ocean on a Full Moon, it will confer upon them the ability to see mermaids.

WATER WISDOM

On the night of the Full Moon, draw a warm bath, and place an aquamarine in the tub. Put on some soothing music, light a pale blue candle and light some ocean-type incense. Undress and climb into the tub. Lay back and close your eyes. Allow your body to relax and go completely limp. Feel the peace the aquamarine imparts to the water. Imagine yourself on a boat in the ocean. The water is calm, you are at peace with the world. All the tensions of the day just melt away. You allow yourself to relax and breathe deeply. Imagine meeting with your Sea Guide. This may take the form of a mermaid or any other sea creature. Listen to your guide. Know that your guide will speak words of wisdom to you and you will remember them. When the guide is finished telling you what you need to know, bid your Sea Guide farewell, and return to the shores of the Ocean. Open your eyes, thank the aquamarine, and return to the everyday world. Carry the aquamarine with you, knowing you can access your inner words of wisdom whenever you need them.

I can't believe that I forgot to take my own quiz!!!!! Okay guys, here are my results...

BLOODSTONE is a green variety of chalcedony with red spots. The red spots resemble drops of blood, hence the name 'bloodstone'.



Bloodstone was once used to bring the thunder and lightning, and as such, was associated with Thor and the various thunder deities.

When you carry a bloodstone, people have a tendency to believe what you say, but it is also a stone of wisdom and honesty. Be careful to always tell the truth when in the presence of a bloodstone.

Some of the folklore surrounding bloodstone says it will stop bleeding when pressed against a wound. It was particularly effective against nosebleeds.

Sincerely,
Laurasia

OBSIDIAN is a form of volcanic glass. It, like basalt, was created by Pele and She Who Watches, but in a more gentler manner.

Obsidian comes in many forms, including black, snowflake and mahogany. All obsidian is good for protection and deflecting negativity. The various forms also have other uses:

Black obsidian is great for scrying. People who have trouble "seeing" with clear quartz might give black obsidian a try.
Snowflake obsidian is a black glass with white inclusions that look like snowflakes. This is good for centering. Whenever you feel unbalanced and "scattered", try sitting quietly for a few minutes with a piece of snowflake.
Mahogany obsidian is a beautiful glossy brown color. It also appears in a black form with brown stripes. This is a wonderful stone for grounding. Holding a piece of mahogany in your hand helps you visualize your roots going deep into the earth.

Many arrowheads and knife blades were made out of obsidian. These are wonderful tools to use in ritual to magickally "cut" through the negativity. They can be used in spell work to magickally cut ties to the past, or to cut the connection to another person or item. I have an obsidian athame that I've used in this manner.

LOL!

I got Obsidian, too, which is a bit odd. I have never relly thought about obsidian. I love amythist, it's my birth stone, and it is suposed to be good for insight and psychic powers. I don't know if it actually helped in that way, but since intuition has always been my strong point, I feel connected to stones that have this power. Know any others?

Hi Aelish.

Oh there are plenty of stones that enhance your intuition/psychic powers. Some moreso than others but hey, whatever works for you.

Some others that you may find helpful are Clear Quartz, Moonstone, Alexandrite, & Lapis Lazuli.

Sincerely,
Laurasia

I got amethyst , which i do use a lot.
Especially if i have a migraine or a tension headache.


AMETHYST is a purple variety of quartz (SiO2). The beautiful color is actually due to an inclusion of iron in the quartz.

Amethyst has long been known as the stone of sobriety. It is said the stone will protect the wearer from intoxication. Of course, I've found that abstaining from alcoholic beverages works rather well, too.

This beautiful stone is used to prevent nightmares and insomnia. It has often been used as a peace stone. Holding the stone in the left hand and breathing in a soft purple pink light will calm a person's emotions.

Try this:
Just before going to bed, take a warm bath with an amethyst in the water. Light some sandalwood incense and burn a purple candle. Dim the lights and picture all the stress of the day melting away. Imagine a soft purple light surrounding you. Breathe in this light and feel the worries and problems of your life slide away. Picture the amethyst drawing all the tension out of your body into the water, then melting it all away. Now, pull the plug and know all that junk is going down the drain with the water. Dry yourself off, snuff the candle with a prayer, and get into bed. Place the amethyst on the nightstand and instruct it to bring you peaceful and beautiful dreams. When you wake in the morning, thank the amethyst for the good night's sleep and the wonderful dreams.

Amethyst enhances the 'sixth sense' and increases psychic awareness. A lot of people carry an amethyst with their Tarot cards or runes. Placing the stone on the table during a reading also absorbs any negativity and acts as an aid to intuition and memory.

Amethysts exchanged between friends will ensure the bond of friendship will survive time and distance. Amethyst will remember the bond and will ensure a reunion.
Another use for amethyst is as a 'come home safely' stone. Make sure a loved one carries an amethyst on a trip to ensure that person's safe return.
