Stone Properties:

Moonstone

Moonstone is associated with the moon and is a wonderfully helpful stone for those who seek to embrace the Goddess within. A stone of intuition and insight, moonstone helps to connect to all of the different cycles one experiences in life. Moonstone helps to balance the emotional body, especially any aggressive tendencies in males or females. Many people find moonstone to be very soothing and use it to help relieve stress. Moonstone is used to protect those who travel on or by water.

Working with the sacral, third-eye and crown chakras, moonstone connects us to divine Inspiration, and channels it into our own intuition. It encourages introspection and judgment, yielding to easier decision making, and also enhances one's emotional vision, bringing greater creative abilities and freedom of expression. These properties are also enhanced by moonstone's ability to open one up to increased synchronicities, that we often cannot see due to our being wrapped up in our daily routines. Moonstone can also offer increased patience and allowing, so those newly found synchronicities can flow into our lives unimpeded.

Blue Stripe Agate

Often called the “earth rainbow”, banded (striped) agate is a healing stone for body, mind and spirit.  It can increase concentration, honesty and memory.  Banded agate also protects the wearer from psychic attack, thereby preventing negative energy from harming you.

Agate is formed with bands of microscopic quartz crystals. It is a variety of chalcedony. Agate is a grounding stone as well as a spiritual stone, allowing for one to bring their spiritual experiences into their everyday reality. Agate is believed to improve mental functions and can help where issues of clarity and stability are concerned.  Agate is also helpful in overcoming negative emotions by bringing love into the chakras.  Although they work very slowly and deliberately, this gentle nature of Agate helps it to have a lasting impact.

Lava

Properties: The elemental powers of fire and earth, lava rocks are rich in minerals from deep in the earth's core. Born of fire, these molten creations raise to the surface and become porous creations of earth. Fire is one of the four classical elements in ancient Greek philosophy and science. It was commonly associated with the qualities of energy, assertiveness, and passion, while earth was commonly associated with qualities of practicality, restraint and materialism.

Lava rocks embrace both elements. These red and black lava rocks are a wonderful tool for the root chakra. The can be used for grounding, protection and making a connection to the earth. They allow us to "root" scattered energy, find focus and bring balance to our center by embracing practicality. This stone is beneficial when your 1st and/or 2nd chakras are energetically weak. They encourage stimulation.
