ZIRCON (not to be confused with the man made cubic zirconia) has outstanding brilliance, as well as the tendency to split white light into the spectral colors. This is an excellent stone to stimulate your strength of purpose, so it’s often used in conjunction with mediations.
KYANITE inspires loyalty and fair treatment to others. It assists in working through disagreements and disputes, and can aid in repairing damaged relationships. It is beneficial in negotiations and other forms of communication between disharmonious people. It is the only other gemstone besides citrine that never needs to be cleansed.
