Essential Crystal List
This is by no means a complete list, just what I’ve got information on at the moment
I’ve included the gems (grouped by color) followed by their color variants (if no color variant is mentioned refer to category color) and keywords for their healing/magical uses.
Use this for what you want. It originally came up when I was discussing gemsonas with a friend but I’m also a stonecaster wiccan.
If you have any questions or want more information please just hit me up! :)
