Gemstones in Magick: Making the Most of Your Jewelry

If there's one common thread among magicians... Well, it would probably be tattoos, but the OTHER common thread is jewelry. Almost every magician I know has at least a small collection of jewelry that is only, or primarily, worn during rituals. The reason for this is, different metals, gemstones, symbols, and even configurations of stones have different occult correspondences. While it would take a library to go into every minute detail of the art of occult jewelry, we can look at some basics here that anyone can access for their own uses. So, prepare to accessorize for maximum effect!

Amber: good for balancing your mind and heart, self love, and confidence

Amethyst: inner peace, psychic abilities, and spiritual growth and awareness

Diamond: wealth, success, and prosperity

Emerald: Healing, meditation, and intelligence

Ruby: protection, health, astral projection

Sapphire: Healing, joy, beauty

Shells: Transformation, sensitivity, intuition

Additionally, the metals of your jewelry have different effects.

Copper: healing, amplifying energy

Gold: confidence, charisma, courage

Platinum: amplifies stones it is set with

Silver: intuition, protection, divine feminine energies

Titanium: protection, strength, courage

This is only a basic primer, but this should contain a little something for everyone's jewelry box, and give you some ideas for your next piece!
