I believe that aside from diamonds, it was the first one that I knew about from my grandmother. She loved amethyst and had quite a bit of jewelry with it.
It sounds like amethyst is a very nostalgic stone for many of us! And you make a great point about diamonds- I’ve honestly never considered the magickal properties of diamonds or of including them in spellwork, but I imagine there are many uses for them too! I guess I often don’t think of them because they aren’t as budget-friendly as stones like amethyst are
I never thought of them that way until I was reading a crystal book that mentioned their properties and that Scorpios shouldn’t wear them. I am a Scorpio and since I stopped wearing my diamonds every day, things aren’t as disheartening.
From bluestone.com diamonds bring disharmony to Scorpios, Aries, and Pisces but they are a great stone for Virgo and Libra. They bring good luck to those signs.
Was it a Herkimer diamond! I thought it was the same thing as a regular diamond but it’s a type of quartz
No I do have a Herkimer Diamond though. It was a field trip when I was in school to go to Herkimer NY and mine for diamonds. It was a lot of fun, I would love to go back and do it again too!
That just blew my mind! For the last 3 months, my best friend has been having major fights or disruptions with her husband… everytime she wears her engagement ring. That ring just happens to have a nice, fat diamond on it… and shes a Pisces! I just texted her to look into this bit of information.
oh awesome! I’m glad I could help with that information. We are going to find me a complimenting ring to wear instead of diamonds. I have ft a lot better since I took them off a couple of months ago.
This is new news to me too! Oh goodness, as a fellow Scorpio I will also have to try and be more mindful of the jewelry I wear I guess this is good news for my wallet- a good excuse to choose less expensive (but equally lovely) crystals! Thank you for sharing this tip, @Susurrus!
Oh no problem at all. I was kind of shocked when I saw it because my wedding band and engagement ring are diamonds. I wear them now when my husband and I are doing something outside of the house. I will find something else, I’m going to research the stones that a Scorpio should wear and see what I can find.
Ooohhh I’m also very interested in this! If you find any good stones that are recommended for us Scorpios, please let me know!
There’s a lot: clear quartz, citrine, obsidian, turquoise, malachite, lapis lazuli, aquamarine.
@BryWisteria I saw that @christina4 listed some, and the only one that I don’t have is turquoise and malachite. I will have to make up a bag of them to carry in my purse after I charge them with intent. I am doing the same thing with an anxiety bag that @jordyn recommended to me on another post. I will also look into it for anxiety and Scorpios.
@Susurrus Heres some infographics I found that could help ya! Also from the Crystal Gemstone Shop Online they have a Scorpio Gemstone Set!
Also check out this article from Healing Crystals they go into a little more detail on things!
That’s really interesting! I looked for Aquarius and there are some stones that I have already and some I’m missing. Gonna have to get on that .
You don’t need every one of them. One is fine.
I’ve been trying to build up my collection anyways. I lost most of mine when I moved suddenly a few years ago. Which was a downer because I had crystals that my Daddy bought me before he passed. So I’m trying to collect them again. Moonstone is on my list. I got one from Amazon and it turned out to be the size of a baby’s tooth. So yeah, gotta try another outlet.
Oh I’m so sorry! You got the code I gave everyone right? At GG2?
Yeah, but I don’t do PayPal and I don’t think they take credit cards. So yeah, that’s the trouble. Otherwise I would have ordered me a nice bit of pyrite by now.
She takes cards! I use my card their.
OOH, goodie! Then I’ll have to order something at the beginning of the month. Can you link me to that post again, I’m afraid I’ve lost it.
