Combine gemstones

It can happen that multiple gemstones appeal to you. Or you like to wear a bracelet and a pendant, but you don't know if the effect goes together. In this article we explain what you should pay attention to when combining gemstones.

First of all, Mother Earth did not provide a manual with rules or instructions for use with the gemstones that grew in her womb. This also explains why you often come across different explanations and interpretations when you look something up about gemstones and their use and effects. Many people feel it themselves, and that is okay. Always follow your feeling, that is a good guideline and advisor in daily life! In practice this means that you can safely combine gemstones when:

  • the color combination of the stones appeals to you
  • the set looks great with your hair, eyes and outfit
  • you simply fall in love with the combination immediately
  • you are happy with the combination
  • it all feels right and perfect to you
  • the meanings of the different stones match your feelings and perception well

If someone else recommends a combination to you and you don't like the color mix or it doesn't appeal to you for some other reason, then listen to your gut feeling!

In principle you can combine all stones, but there are a few exceptions or things you should pay attention to. And those are:

  • Make sure the meanings do not contradict each other. Do not combine a calming stone with an activating stone. So rose quartz and red jasper do not go well together, then your system gets confused. The same applies for example to stones for closing/protecting that you would rather not combine with stones for openness and spontaneity... they bite each other.
  • Know that wearing multiple gemstones can amplify the effects of those different stones. This can be overwhelming. So keep an eye on how you feel when wearing multiple gemstones. If you notice that you feel rushed, irritable, dizzy, tired or otherwise uncomfortable, switch back to one or no stone for a while.

For the rest: experiment and follow your feelings! That way you write your own, living, gemstone handbook, and that way you become your own crystal expert!
