Heal Using Crystal Agate

Crystal agate comes in many hues.


Crystal agate has been used as a folk remedy for fertility concerns, as it was believed it could ward off miscarriages and alleviate the discomforts of pregnancy. It has long been associated with the ability to induce relaxation, calmness, balance, and pain-relief. It is also known for its ability to stimulate analytical thinking, and assist with issues regarding money and confidence, as well as dizziness, headaches, nerve damage and blood sugar imbalances. Agate can be cleaned using lukewarm water, and it may become more energized by placing it in the sun, or in the moonlight.
