Happy Friday my lovely gem steadies, intern BB here! Are you
ready for this week's star stone to be revealed? This little charmer is a member
of the Quartz family, is double terminated(meaning it is pointy on several
ends) and it was discovered in Herkimer County New York. In case you haven’t
guessed, it is the Herkimer Diamond, and wow is it a stunner with all sorts of
cool powers. These gems are quite
unique, not just because of their rarity, but they can have some neat
“deformations”. Sometimes Herkimers will grow in clusters and there will be
various sizes within each cluster. Other times the Herkimer diamond can have a
fluid inclusion, where bits of water or oil get trapped inside of the stone.
The Herkimer Diamond is a very peaceful gem, and is well known for its forgiving
powers. Herkimer Diamonds can erase grudges that took a lifetime to form, and
can help one to see the world in a new peaceful way. Our pal Herkimer wants you to hold onto
close, and important relationships and this gem works kind of like a friendship
bracelet. Before parting ways with a loved one, each person should retain a
Herkimer Diamond and it will promote telepathy between the two people.
Herkimers are also said to retain information that can be retrieved at a later
time.
In addition to being a peaceful attunement stone, the Herkimer Diamond
is a natural pain reliever. In a way, it is sort of the Aspirin of the gem
universe. Simply place your favorite Herkimer on the pain-afflicted area and
let the energetic currents of the stone work some magic. Herkimers are also
great for getting rid of toxins and impurities within the body. In the past
they have been used to correct imbalances within DNA and they have aided
cellular disorders and metabolic rate.
Going back to the Herkimer Diamond being a peaceful stone, it is a
fabulous tension easer. Herkimers can bring a care free harmony to one’s self
and it is a great stone for the super-stressed. Start wearing you favorite
Herkimer piece to those stressful work meetings to feel a great sense of
relaxation. Herkimers are very simple to use for stress relief. Simply place a
Herkimer Diamond around the area facing grief, may it be your head, heart or
anywhere else and let the good vibes kick in.
Have I mention the Herkimer Diamond is an amazingly beautiful stone?
Honestly, this gem has a lot of great qualities and is much more affordable
than a real “diamond”, so there can be a little bit of Herkimer in everyone’s
life, including yours! Gem Steady currently has some stunning Herkimer pieces waiting
to work wonders for your life(and look pretty wrapped around your finger).
