Feeling tired? Not able to concentrate at work? Yearning for romance? Suffering from insomnia? Wish to attract wealth? Want to boost your confidence? Wish you would become more tactful? Or do you just want to dress up for a special occasion? There
is a gemstone out there to fulfill all your needs.
A gemstone or gem is a piece of attractive mineral, which when cut and polished is used to make jewelry or other adornments. However certain rocks and organic materials are not minerals, but are still used for jewelry, and are therefore often considered to be gemstones as well. Most gemstones are hard, but some soft minerals are used in jewelry because of their luster or other physical properties that have aesthetic value.
Although gems are rare and exhibit great beauty, one of the reasons they are so precious is due to the belief that they impart certain powers to their wearers. In the past Kings and Queens had gemstones set in their crowns to obtain their highest potential as rulers.
One of the most prized gem stone, the Diamond symbolizes purity and commitment, as we all know. It is said to enhance a husband’s love for his wife which is why it is often used in engagement rings. But did you know that wearing diamond earrings could protect you against cell phone emanations?
Generally most people think diamonds when they think engagements rings, but an Emerald would also be apt as it symbolizes immortality and faith.
Sapphire is known as wisdom stone. It comes in various colors-blue, yellow, green and purple each color bringing in its own brand of wisdom. This stone releases depression and spiritual confusion.
The Ruby is a much revered stone in India that is believed to impart a passion for life but never in a self destructive way. It improves motivation and helps a person to set realistic goals. The ruby frequently is given as a gift in celebration of the birth of a daughter.
Equally prized for their magical properties are semi precious stones. The healing powers of Amethyst date back as far as the ancient Greeks who believed that amethyst protected from the intoxicating effects of alcohol.
Tiger’s eye is protective stone that since ancient times has been worn as a talisman against evil eye and curses. It is said that Roman soldiers used to carry tigers eye with them in the battlefield for protection.
Missing love in your life? Rose quartz is the stone you should be wearing. From ancient times Rose Quartz is considered as a symbol of ‘unconditional love’ and beauty.
Jade increases love and nurturing which makes it an ideal gift for your loved ones or for new parents.According to Crystal Healers and New Age believers, gems are said to have the power of the earth's energies inherent in them.
They believe that gemstones can be used for treatment of everything from physical pain to mental or emotional imbalance.

Luster Luster Luster Luster Luster $20.44 Don Bogens latest volume, Luster, takes on everything from bullhorns to the cultivation of olive trees in poems that are sharpedged and open to surprise. They capture not just things themselves but the essential contextshistory, power, the personal and the socialthat give them meaning. The stylistic dexterity and range of approaches here make the book as rich as the world it engages. Luster includes evocations of place and memory, character studies of figures from Coleridge to Tarzan, a verse epistle, and an extended meditation on machines in our daily lives, all within an overarching vision. From racehorses to waterwheels to great cities, Bogen illuminates things that go, in both their dynamism and their inevitable decay. Luster traces the sheen of human activity that clings to the world around us: imperfect, irrevocably marred by time, but always gleaming.
