Popularly known as January's birthstone, Garnet, particularly Almandine Garnet as an incredible grounding stone. They radiate a steady energy that builds stamina within our body and motivation, helping us to find energy when we are lacking. Garnet is a beautiful crystal for those who are feeling ungrounded and at a disconnect with the world around them. They have the power of protection locked within the red and purple hues. When we are deeply rooted and connected with the Earth's energy, negative vibrations cannot affect us, and this is how Garnet aids by rooting us into the physical space. Almandine Garnets were popular as a talisman for safety and good health when life was more physically demanding and dangerous.
