I’ve been asked recently about suggestions for gemstones that would be most healing for breast cancer.
 

My first thought jumped immediately to Rose Quartz. This gemstone has an association with self-love and deep inner healing which helps to bring comfort and strength.  However, along with Rose Quartz, it would also be beneficial to look for gemstones that protect your health and immune system, especially if going through chemotherapy.

Turquoise enhances the immune system, stimulates the regeneration of tissue, and heals the whole body. It also contains anti-inflammatory and detoxifying effects and alleviates pain

Amethyst is not only a natural tranquiliser relieving stress and strain, fear and anxiety; it also alleviates sadness and grief, and dissolves negativity.  It strengthens the immune system and relieves physical, emotional and psychological pain or stress.

Fluorite boosts the immune system and stimulates the regeneration of cells.

Moss Agate speeds up recovery from illness. It is anti-inflammatory and boosts the immune system.

Obviously, these are just a few of many gemstones that can help boost the immune system.

Whenever choosing a crystal or gemstone for yourself, for whatever reason, or situation, I would always suggest that you go with the gemstone (or crystals) that you feel particularly drawn to at the time.  I know it can be quite confusing with so many gemstones to choose from, but usually we are drawn to particular gems at different times in our lives when we need the particular energy that the chosen gemstone can give us. If the gemstones you choose feel right, then they are the ones that will work for you.

What is most important to remember when using crystals for healing, is that the power of healing energy is only as strong as the intent to heal.
