Gemstones That Protect Against Evil Spirits & More
Agate is one of the best stones for protection. It can drive away spirits, protect you from psychic attacks, and stop magic. Tawny agate is thought to be the strongest protective kind of agate.
Beryl
Beryl is known for magical protection and it can help you find faeries.
Diamond
Okay, it’s not a stone, but diamonds are known to banish all sorts of negative energy. A couple of paranormal sites said diamonds also amplify your personal energy to help in interpersonal conflicts.
Garnet
Garnet builds up your willpower and can reinforce your protective herbs. Carry them with you for added protection from spirits and ghosts.
Gold
Yes, it’s a metal, but it’s one that can amplify the effects of your protection techniques. Use it with herb burning that drives away evil spirits. That means use gold incense holders or burn protection herbs on a gold platter. FYI – Gold-plated items won’t help.
Jade
Jade is one of the most powerful stones for protecting you against psychic and magical attacks. It will deflect the attack on the sender with 3x the power.
Jasper
If you need protection against shadow people, Jasper will quickly dispel them. It will also disrupt magical attacks.
Jet
Jet is a kind of coal that has protective properties against ghosts, evil spirits, and other earthbound entities. A few sources say you can burn it to enhance your herb defenses, too.
Magnetite
This is one of our favorite stones: Magnetite is a great all-around protection stone. You can wear it as a bracelet, pendant, earrings, ring, or necklace to keep the bad spirits away. It works against psychic attacks and magical ones, too.
Malachite
Malachite is another good general protection evil spirits and magic. It also aids in releasing trauma. It’s in the copper family and has a deep green color.
Obsidian
Obsidian and Magnetite have a lot of the same powers. We use both for a powerful protective shield from evil energies.
Onyx
Use Onyx to help separate an attached entity. If you think something followed you home from a ghost hunt, wear onyx ASAP to break free.
Ruby
Ruby is known to amplify your personal life force. Apparently, it will make your chi radiate, and it could attract a psychic vampire. We say use it to recharge after a night of ghost hunting. Some spirits use bits of your energy to manifest. Ruby should help you recover.
Sapphire
While it’s not a protective stone, Sapphire has been said to wash negative energy out of your system. You place it in a glass of water, then drink the water after 5-10 minutes to purify the negativity. Remember, don’t swallow the stone. You can take it out after the purification process (about 10 minutes).
Sardonyx
Okay, we’d never heard about this stone before. Sardonyx is a combination of onyx and sard. It makes the wearer invisible to magical attacks…if you wear it on your skin. So, get a bracelet and you should be fine!
Topaz
Topaz is another strong general protective stone. It works especially well against psychic vampires and hostile magic.
Turquoise
This stone is known to provide a strong defense against hostile magic. However, it’s not known to protect you against ghosts, evil spirits, or demons.
