- Turquoise is a healer of the spirit, bringing peace of mind, also guiding through the unknown or through new experiences.
- It has been used to insure property against accident or damage, and to bestow goodness. It induces wisdom and understanding, at the same time as enhancing trust, kindness, and recognition of beauty, as well as stimulating romantic love.
- Native American Indians used Turquoise extensively in rain-making ceremonies.
- In healing, Turquoise is a ‘master healer’ which is able to be used on mental, emotional, and physical problems. It can be used to strengthen the entire body, combating whatever afflictions are present. It is also useful for treating headaches.
