History and Metaphysical Properties:

Kyanite:

Mostly mined in India, this stone can be the sparkle in a necklace or be part of a spark plug in an engine. This makes it an important mineral used in the glass industry and heat resistant ceramics. Its name comes from the Greek word kyanos, meaning “blue.” Kyanite is the stone of channeling, altered states, dream recall and visualizations. It also increases intuition and insight. Activates a greater psychic ability and helps one to understand the lessons in life and to learn more from our teachers. Aids in creative expressions such as art, dance and writing.

Herkimer Diamond:

Mined in New York, Herkimer Diamonds are called the "stone of attunement". While it is not actually diamond, it is a rare form of quartz, that grow in pockets and often resemble the sparkling clarity of diamonds. It is said to assist with balance on the mental, emotional and physical levels. It can be used effectively to clear and open any chakra. It is professed to relieve tension and thereby promote peace of mind. Psychically, it's useful for auric cleansing and dream recall. Physically it can be used to heal addictions and remove toxins.
