Gemstones Actually Work?

I’ve witnessed Rose Quartz affect snarky people’s behavior, in particular one member of the pagan community, who was affected by this in a big way. I saw her demeanor change to being calm, nice, and less abrasive. I also need to get kyanite to start a protection grid for myself, amethyst to set up a sleep-related grid in my mattress. I’ve seen gemstones have an effect on my family too, but anyway, I use them for diabetes also, even if they are no substitute for medication. Stonework is finally interesting me again, without familial influences slowing me down. I actually want to become a gemstone healer? Yes, really, I do, and this strikes me as bizarre. But okay, I will try.
