Numbers and stones
Numerology believes that wearing the right gemstone can be highly beneficial and has innumerable advantages. And the choice of one’s lucky stone is according to one’s date of birth,
It is believed that the correctly chosen gemstone absorbs any negativity inside you or in your outside environment, emits positive vibrations to the wearer, takes care of your health, cures diseases, helps in balancing all the seven chakras of the body, works on your intuition, improves concentration, helps successful marriages, fosters compatibility with your partner and takes care of overall happiness.
The right gemstone is also believed to attract wealth and work on your destiny patterns. Every stone emits rays and vibrations in sync with your body and every stone has a unique chemical structure which works on your system.
Points to keep in mind:
It is recommended that one wears their lucky stone in a manner that it touches the skin.
If not wearing the gemstone, alternate crystals can be worn as they will act as a “lucky charm” as well.
All stones should be tested first by the wearer for three to five days before wearing or keeping it.
One can always carry their gemstone in the wallet/bag or place it by their bedside or under the pillow and feel the energy of the stone.
