Stone: Beryl
Color: Varied
Associated Element: Water
Energy: Receptive
Magickal Powers/Uses: Beryl is actually a family of stones
with the same composition, but impurities occurring in the stones
produce different colors. Aquamarine and emerald are both types
of beryl. Colorless, or clear beryl, called Goshenite, has been
used for thousands of years for crystal divination spheres (crystal
balls). Beryl is associated with the sea and is another stone to
provide protection while traveling over water.

Stone: Bloodstone
Color: Medium to dark green with red/orange spots/bands
Associated Element: Fire
Energy: Projective
Magickal Powers/Uses: The bloodstone has ancient associations
with blood and healing and has a wide variety of uses. It is also
called heliotrope and is a type of jasper. It is used to heal and
avoid wounds, ensure success, attract money, and protect pregnant
women. It also can be used to produce "invisibility" or
"cloaking" when in a place or involved in a situation
where one does not wish to attract attention to oneself. Bloodstone
ensures justice and fairness in court and legal affairs. It also
fosters creativity, development of talent, idealism, and good fortune.
Magickal lore states that when a bloodstone's energy is depleted,
the red spots will turn to white, and the stone should be returned
to the earth.
