Tumblestone - Garnet (Small)
There is a misconception that Garnets are only a red gem but in fact they come in a variety of colours including purple, red, orange, yellow, green, brown, black, or colourless. The name "Garnet" comes from the Latin granatus, a grain possibly in reference to malum granatum (pomegranate) a plant with red seeds similar in shape, size and colour to some Garnet Crystals.

Classification: Nesosilicate Location: Worldwide Formation: Most garnet forms when a sedimentary rock with high aluminium content, such as shale, is metamorphosed (subjected to heat and pressure). The high heat and pressure break the chemical bonds in the rocks and cause minerals to recrystallise. Chakra: Root & Crown Element: Earth / Fire Mohs Hardness Scale: 7 - 8 Zodiac: Aries, Leo, Virgo, Capricorn & Aquarius Metaphysical Properties: Said to attract and activate passion and success, Garnet is believed to remove emotional and energetic blocks, creating energetic and emotional balance in the body.
