Onyx, Garnets and Gold

Deb · 19-06-2003

Hi all,
Hope you are all well. I just bought my self some Onyx (black) crsytal ball earrings and I have cleansed and programmed them for positivity, as that is what the backing said they were for when I bought them. I was wondering if anyone knows what else Onyx is good for.

Also, I have some small gemstones in glass bottles that I have had for years, ever since I was a child. My Grandpa used to pan for gold and he was lucky enough to find these gemstones aswell. They are all so tiny but I want to be able to use them but I am unsure how because of thier size, as I dont want to lose them. (Can I make elixers out of them and if so how much would I need to use.) I still need to go through all the vials and seperate them into what gems they are and by colour so I can more easily identify what they are. I definately know that majority of it is garnet but there are a lot of greens, blues, yellows, blacks (which are chunky looking and of decent size) and browns which I haven't identified. They were found in rivers throughout Victoria Australia. (same as the gold)

I also have a vial of gold that my Grandpa panned and this is one of my most prized possesions, but it has been in the same vial for years also and I'm not sure that I want to take out the gold pieces as some are just so thin and tiny, should I leave them be or is there a safe and effective way to cleanse the gold. The gold doesn't look dirty in any way and I only open the vial occasionally. (I have never previoulsy cleansed the gold before, do you think that it would have my Grandpa's imprint on it somehow). (He died over 15 years ago now).

Any information and/or similar stories would be greatly appreciated.

Have fun

Deb

Onyx also helps you center yourself and assists in the creation of happiness.

You can make elixirs out of any size stone, but it would be best to positively identify the stones before doing so, especially if you plan to take the elixirs internally. Some stones contain high amounts of toxic substances.

Either find a field guide for local stones or ask a fellow Australian. I'm from the US, and I'm not familiar with what stones are commonly found in Australia (although I've heard of the opals).

The gold doesn't need to be cleaned or cleared if you don't feel it needs to be. If it is the tiny, flaky kind of gold I have seen, it may be risky, as you could lose it.

It could have picked up your grandpa's energy -- stones will do that. Even the ones you buy in the store have residual energy from the collector and the dealers, which is why it is important to clear a stone before you work with it (unless you like the energy you sense right off the bat, which happens sometimes).

Thanx Kyrielle
I will definately properly identify the gems before I use them so I dont make myself ill or anything. I think I will leave the gold as it is as it feels right to me.

I am happy to hear that Onxy helps with centering and happiness as I need an extra boost of happiness at the moment!

Have a good weekend
Deb
