Healing With Garnet

Garnet is an energizing stone used to attract and activate passion and success. It can remove emotional and energetic blocks that may be limiting your vitality, as well as old patterns that can get in your way. Garnet is said to create energetic and emotional balance in the body. 

Garnet is connected to the fire element, which relates to passion and inspiration. It can increase feelings of self-confidence. Garnet can also be used to attract a romantic partner or revitalize an existing romantic relationship. 

This stone has a connection to the root chakra, and can increase feelings of safety, security, and grounding. It has also been used to protect against and transmute harmful energies. 

Feng Shui Uses for Garnet

Incorporating garnet into your home’s feng shui can help you harness its beneficial energies. One way to do this is by placing it in a particular area of the feng shui bagua. The bagua is an energetic map laid over a home, with different sections corresponding to different areas of your life. You can shift certain aspects of your life by intentionally making adjustments to the corresponding areas of the bagua in your home. Another way to work with garnet as a feng shui adjustment is to look at the five elements system, which is another tool used by feng shui practitioners to assess and adjust the energy of a space or person.  

Activate Your Success and Recognition 

Garnet’s fiery energy makes it a natural fit to enhance your success and visibility, which is also connected to the element of fire. Li is related to fame, recognition, and how you are seen in the world. This is a great area to work on if you’d like to become more visible—perhaps you would like more eyes on a new endeavor, more recognition at work, or to be seen more fully in your personal relationships. To support these intentions, you may want to try placing a garnet in the Li area of your bedroom. You can locate this area by standing in the doorway of your bedroom, looking in. The center of the wall furthest away from you is the Li area. If you’d like more recognition in your career specifically, try adding a garnet to the Li area of your office or desk.

Activate Kun, the Love Corner

Kun is the area of the bagua map related to relationships and partnerships, including romantic relationships. Because garnet can help attract a new romantic partner, placing a garnet in this area of your bedroom can help you call in new love. You can find this area of the bedroom by standing in the doorway of the bedroom, looking into the room. The farthest right corner of the bedroom is your love corner.

Garnet is also a supportive addition to this bagua area if you want to reinvigorate an existing relationship with an extra boost of passion.

Activate the Fire Element

The fire element is all about passion, inspiration, and emotional expression. You might need more fire energy in your life if you are feeling lackluster, uninspired, or having a hard time connecting to your emotions. Working with garnet can help you connect to this fire energy—try placing it in an area of your home where you’ll see it regularly.
