Crystal Colors and Gemstones
By Dikki-Jo Mullen
(excerpt from Dikki-Jos book, Koo Hollie and the Corn Goddess Chronicle) The science of the stars has an omni quality. The heavens above are omnipresent. They watch over and reflect every aspect of daily life. The healing potential inherent in colors and gems is one of the most ancient as well as the most pleasant ways to direct celestial messages.

Note: All of the signs of the zodiac appear somewhere in each persons horoscope. When you desire to activate a certain planet or house or draw in the qualities of a zodiac sign, use the appropriate stone to do so.
Special Note: Here are three especially easy to obtain, popular, useful and inexpensive crystals!
Amethyst Medicine Stone Crystal
The amethyst, a purple quartz, is one of the most universally beloved of gem stones. The purple color relates to wine, and Bacchus the God of revelry is thought to have created it long ago by pouring wine over a clear crystal. The name amethyst actually means not drunk. Purple is the color of psychic and spiritual growth. This stone represents truth, spirituality and a clear head. Because it has white in it, it is a cape amethyst and has special healing energy. The amethyst is a valuable talisman to all who would investigate the paranormal and interact with spirits.
Cats Eye Crystal
From the agate family, this stone is thought to enhance intuition and protect from any negative entity attachments. Its vibration is very helpful and benevolent. Keep it with you while investigating hauntings and doing other spiritual work. Combine with a cedar berry, moon stone, lapis or amethyst for effective additional potency.
Smokey Topaz Crystal
This member of the very powerful quartz family of crystals is often given to children to carry in school to keep any negative influences at bay. As a ghost hunter it is a very valuable desirable stone. It will help to contain any negative imprints or distractions. This stone enables you to perform a focused and unbiased investigation of paranormal influences. It is usuallymined in Brazil, a country famed for healers and spiritualists.
