Precious and Semi-Precious Gemstones
Precious gemstones include diamonds, rubies, sapphires and emeralds; their beauty has long fascinated humans. Additionally, these gems tend to retain or even appreciate in value over time making them highly desirable as jewelry or decor pieces; yet only four gems account for a small proportion of total sales value in the United States; other stones such as opal, jade or pearl specimens would probably outshone these four in terms of beauty and desirability than them.
Semi-precious stones in the United States have witnessed steady increases in demand over recent years due to their attractive colors and affordability, making them suitable for individuals seeking to express their individuality or add elegance to their jewellery collections. Gemstones such as jade are said to carry spiritual healing properties associated with Gemini, Aries and Leo zodiac signs/ rashi; citrine is said to bring abundance, luck and success!
Types of Gemstones
Gemstones are natural minerals that have been cut and polished into jewelry pieces, often for use as fashion accessories. Gems can also be enhanced through heat or chemical processes in order to improve their color or clarity – this enhancement may alter their value significantly.
Gemstones have long been prized for their beauty and healing properties, while some believe they can also enhance particular characteristics based on their zodiac or birthstone meaning.
Gems can often be divided into two categories, precious and semi-precious stones. Although non-diamond gems are considered semi-precious, this term doesn’t carry much significance since many gemstones such as garnets have traditionally been considered semi-precious while selling at 10 times their price of low quality diamonds. Therefore, professional gemologists no longer refer to gemstones in terms of precious and semi-precious – instead preferring using colored stones instead; although you may still hear these terms used by non-gemologists.
Meanings of Gemstones
Gemstones hold special significance across cultures. Ancient Egyptians believed lapis lazuli promoted spiritual enlightenment while medieval knights preferred rubies to symbolize love and strength. Each gemstone carries with it its own symbolic meanings, powers, and healing properties.
Peridot, the birthstone of August, is widely recognized for its refreshing and optimistic properties that can assist personal development. Furthermore, this gem may bring luck in love and business relationships while helping relieve fatigue.
Gemstones, like crystals, are formed through immense pressure and heat within Mother Earth and represent an irreplaceable natural resource of rarity and beauty. Family heirlooms often pass them along from generation to generation as meaningful tokens to mark life’s significant events, serving as reminders of how gracefully we all respond under pressure. Furthermore, colors and meanings associated with gemstones hold spiritual meaning – learn more about tourmaline, garnet, sapphire etc!
Crystal Healing
Crystal healing is an alternative medicine practice using crystals to heal on physical, mental and spiritual levels. Practitioners believe crystals emit vibrations which interact with our energy fields and promote balance and harmony within us all. Some stones such as carnelian or amethyst have specific properties such as relaxing or focusing the mind while others such as carnelian can boost energy and foster self-love.
Panzarella suggests starting your search for a crystal by first identifying your intentions for using it, e.g. if you’re hoping to attract love, opting for pink crystal may help. Conversely, white stones offer greater stability and relaxation.
Other crystals may help with health concerns like fertility or hormone imbalances; however, for any serious medical conditions you should contact a physician first. Finally, be sure to cleanse your crystals frequently either under cold water or leaving them out in sunlight or moonlight – this will remove any negative energies they have absorbed and allow their fullest potential.
