Hi all, I am beginning a study with Pyrope Garnet, as I need grounding after working with so many crown/third eye chakra stones
Pyrope Garnet is a semi-precious crystal, and is a magnesium aluminium garnet, often found with the Almandine (precious) variety.
It is also said to help relieve low blood suger, one of the reasons I am using it at this time; and also helps with rheumatism and arthritis. As it is related to the root chakra, it can also enhance blood flow and libido.
The emotional healing for Pyrope Garnet is said to be a restoration of energy and the will to live, after the energies or drives have hit an all time low. Useful to restore zest after periods of depression.
This crystal is also attuned to the heart chakra.
It is also related to the planet Mars, and is said to bring courage. One is meant to trace the words "I am as fierce as a wolf" or "I am as brave as a lion" over it with the index finger, in order to imbue it with these strengths. It is related to the Zodiac signs Capricorn and Aquarius. Its empowerment is: "I will not let my inner fire burn dimly".
Garnet is related to the feminine principle, due to its ability to ease blood flow, and so may help with menses or menopausal symptoms. It is a stone that is said to enhance a woman's drive and success in the workplace, due to its ability to impart courage; it will aid one to make practical decisions.
Since wearing the stone (since yesterday) I have had a great surge of the number 4 in my life, seeing it everywhere, especially in triples. As Garnet is grounding and hard working, 4 makes all kinds of sense - the number of practicality, hard work, common sense. I am also seeing a lot of the 55's again (or still) and this also makes sense, because the 5's denote faith that the Universe will bring the prosperity one requires in order to be able to concentrate on other things. The message, to me, is "work hard at doing what you love best, and the money will follow". Useful! lol....
I have also noted the immediate grounding effect - I was so floaty and scattered from the other crystals (too much too soon, I am thinking) and the moment I clad myself in Pyrope garnet, I felt grounded, steady, calmed, and ready to go forward and deal with the tasks of the day. I think this is a good stone to wear between working with other crystals!

and, interestingly enough, it is the 4th stone listed on the page
