Stone Properties
Please note the listing below represents just a glimpse of these healing stones. While the sources regarding the healing properties of stones are numerous, the information below has been distilled from the following sources:
The Crystal Healer by Philip Permutt, 2007
The Book of Stones by Robert Simmons and Naisha Ahsian, 2007
As a Reiki practitioner anddesigner, I believe that the intention one puts into the piece can be more important than the properties of the stones themselves. Please allow your heart to guide your choices.
Peace and Light,
Mala
