Diamond, Herkimer Diamond and Clear Quartz Crystal
Diamond:
This is the hardest gemstone known to mankind. Being Clear and pure carbon, it is believed to help form relationships and enhance purity and fidelity, bringing honesty between lovers and friends. This beautiful gem dispels negativity and purifies the physical and etheric bodies. it repairs ruptures in the aura and assists with spiritual development. Diamond attracts abundance and is an excellent stone for medium work and creating lucid dreaming. It is extremely beneficial for a wide range of health issues.
Diamond is associated with the month of April and Aries is generally the Zodiac sign, but some lists also align it with Leo, Libra, Sagittarius and Pisces. Personally, I use April and Aries as reference points.
Herkimer Diamond:
Herkimer Diamonds are the purest Quartz Crystals. They aren’t Diamonds but Quartz and because of their brilliance and shape have been named such. Herkimer does not need to be cut by man as it comes faceted already by nature.
This is a powerful amplifier for energies and other stones. It will store information for later use. As a transmitter, it can project your intent out to the Universe in all directions at once. It is also a receiver and is able to pick up vibrations from both inner and outer space. Herkimer is very effective in releasing energy blockages and, as with all Clear Quartz, will balance and enhance the energy of any crystal placed near it.
Keep your Herkimer Diamond close to you as you get to know it. It is useful for meditation, astral travel, telepathy, clairvoyance, psychic ability and past-life recall. It can cleanse the aura and open any chakra.
This crystal can be programmed to attune you to an environment or a situation.
Clear Quartz:
Clear Quartz is Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) and is the most common found on earth. It can store, amplify, focus, transmit and transform energy on all levels. Because it is the only truly transformable crystal, it can be programmed for particular healing. Then it can be cleansed and reprogrammed. The clearer pieces have more masculine, or yang energy and are stronger, faster-acting energy. The cloudy crystals are feminine, or yin energy and are better for chronic or long-term conditions.
It is the basic stone for all magick and enhances psychic ability. A Quartz point is more powerful than a tumbled Quartz as the point directs the energy. Wearing Clear Quartz enables you to have influence and power over situations.
This powerful stone is extremely protective. It is a master healer and is beneficial for pineal and pituitary glands. It aids pain, arthritis, bone injuries, depression, fibromyalgia, mental and physical energy.

Carnation, Jasmine, Lily of the Valley and Magnolia:
I have chosen to associate the above gems with certain white flowers. White flowers are associated with innocence, humility and reverence.
Magnolia:
Magnolia increase psychic power and heightens psychic abilities. Use it magickally for fidelity, love, passion, dignity and love of nature.
Lily of the Valley:
Lily of the Valley brings inner peace and calm, is soothing and wards off negativity. Use it in magick to stop and prevent harassment. This plant and oil are very healing. It will also attract faeries. Use it in rituals and spells. As it is poisonous, use with caution, perhaps just burn the oil.
Jasmine:
Jasmine is used for attraction and is good for divination. It is especially excellent for charging Quartz Crystals. Burn the oil or flowers to attract prosperity. It can help induce sleep and bring prophetic dreams. Jasmine is effective for new and groundbreaking ideas. Use it when you wish to invoke the Goddess.
White Carnation:
This will protect, strengthen, heal and enhance magickal powers. When burned it will increase creativity.
Conclusion:
Because the crystals and gems mentioned here are all-purpose and extremely powerful, they, of course, can be used with almost any oils, herbs and flowers. These are just some suggestions for specific objectives.
Blessed Be!
