Blessings to You!
I drew a card for the Collective today and in a meditative space asked what healing crystal would best serve the All for the next week.  The powerful Garnet is a wonderful energizer and cleanser to take us through the New Moon on the 1st of June.  If you find yourself without a Garnet to work with, just focus on the image of the stone via picture while meditating on your root chakra, and/or copy and do the affirmation daily to bring about awakening.
Remember you never have to own a stone to benefit from it's medicine. Find the nearest metaphysical or spiritual store in your area and pop in to see their selection. As you touch or hold each Garnet with your left hand,(your left hand is your receptive hand) ask your Higher Self to open to the healing properties contained within. (Never project or release into a stone that is not your own. Simply open to the Divine Energies contained within to be initiated into it's vibration.)  If upon touching any stone you feel heavy, painful, or dense energies, put it down! The crystal needs to be cleansed.  Crystals can be cleansed by many different means. Smudging with Sage and activating them with Pure Sacred Sound is my favorite method.  Feel free to find your own, and ask the person behind the counter if they can or do cleanse their crystals.  It just might open up a very informational conversation.

Most stores  will have Garnets because it's powerful healing and magical properties have been written about and acknowledged since ancient times. This stone was placed in the Breastplate of the High Priest in the old testament and is associated with the Astrological sign of Capricorn.

ALL LOVE AND HEALING TO YOU AND THROUGH YOU MY FRIENDS. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS READING (OR ANYTHING ELSE ) FEEL FREE TO EMAIL OR CALL ME.  TO SERVE YOU IS MY PURPOSE AND MY HAPPINESS.

Luminescence
Magnetically ignited by the red auric flames of Garnet, our root chakra (located at the base of our spine) is aroused by the innate rhythmic beat. OUr internal pulse wants to surge upward, uncoiling our no-longer dormant Shakti (serpent) energy. Such a powerful healer, Garnet, expressing Shakti, regenerates this pulse of life within every cell along its path.  This is Kundalini initiation, the awakening of our internal fires of transmutation, as it courses through our spinal fluids, nervous system, and spinal cord. Primal yet essential, this free-flowing passage draws deep from within our instincts to survive, ensuring the vitality of our being.  Within all life beats the universal pulse. As above, so below.
Garnet's spiritual fires merge our anchored roots with the white light of Spirit as we discover an unending stamina to pursue our desires.

Healing
Garnet stimulates the sensory nervous system, fully awakening the senses and enlivening vitality.  This crystal is rich in iron (hence the red color) and oxygen.  These minerals are essential for muscle performance, energy production and combating fatigue. Garnet is said to heal skin eruptions, eczema and psoriasis.
Garnet is a powerful blood cleanser and tissue tonic, recommended for anemia, poor circulation and poor absorption of nutrients.  A Garnet in your sock, or as an ankle bracelet aids in poor circulation. Pregnant mothers can wear or carry Garnet during the fifth month of pregnancy until birth. A Garnet's rich iron content will support the incarnate being, forming the will.
You can use Garnet to treat disorders of the spine and spinal fluid, to stimulate cleansing and eliminations. While Garnet does not stimulate sexual urges per se, it does enrich the adrenal glands and encourages normal hormone production and hormone circulation.
Garnet makes a great elixir, especially for vata types who get cold and flighty easily and for kaphas who need a fiery boost to increase their circulation. (See Gems as Medicine for Ayurvedic body type examples.)
According to Vedic astrology, flawless Garnet can appease and strengthen the sun, which in addition to the above, is good for colds, flus and confers courage.
Garnet rich like the color of a red lotus increase the wealth of the wearer.

Divine Wisdom
When Garnet appears in your reading, it is a sign to be conscious of your circulation.  How is your physical health? Are you sluggish? Do your hands and feet get cold too easily? This is an appropriate time to take up hatha yoga, receive a Feldenkrais treatment or visit an acupressurist
or acupuncturist.
In Ayurvedic healing, it is recommended for some body types to do a self-massage daily with sesame oil. In tune with Garnet's energy, this can stimulate the power of the Kundalini fire. Such an awakening can occur spontaneously, with or without a guide or guru who is adept at giving Shaktipat, the breath of the Kundalini awakening, the uncoiling of our serpent goddess of fire. Drumming, tribal dances, belly dancing, trance dancing or any free form dance movements can sometimes ignite the internal fires of the pulse into motion. The key thereafter is balance, even if it mans a change or moving.
Garnet represents the harmony of self; the celebration of your divine pulse. Let the universal beat move you. Or perhaps what you need is to circulate more on the social scene. Get seen, be noticed, have fun just because fun feels good. Fun is essential food for the soul, a sacred gift for choosing life in the physical realm.

Jewel of Awakening Affirmation
My pulse is in sync with the universal drum. With every beat I am vitally energized; my chi is strong and flowing. Fun nourishes my soul.
