Stone:
Ruby
Color: Red
Associated Element: Fire
Energy: Projective
Magickal Powers/Uses: Ruby is a brilliant red transparent
stone with a long history of magickal use. Rubies are the red form
of the mineral corundum (sapphire is the non-red variety), and are
second only to diamonds in hardness. They are primarily used to
attract wealth and power, but also offer protective qualities. Ancient
lore states that a ruby will grow dark when danger or illness threatens
its owner. It was used as an amulet to ward off negativity, evil
spirits, and psychic attack. Rubies protect the home from storms
and negativity. Ruby is a highly stimulating stone, and is helpful
with increasing energy and healing illnesses such as chronic fatigue
syndrome. It is also reported to increase energy during magickal
workings. Its red color associates it with love and matters of the
heart, and it promotes joy, warmth, happiness, and passion. Dreaming
of a ruby is always fortunate, and rubies can help to relieve nightmares.
They are sacred stones of Buddhists and Hindus. Rubies are found
in many locations throughout the world including Burma, Afghanistan,
Africa, India, Thailand, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka.
