Agate & Chalcedony
Historically worn as amulets against evil, agate was cherished in Egyptian, Greek, and Chinese traditions—placed near doors to repel negative energy. In Buddhism, it symbolizes equilibrium, often crafted into prayer beads to aid focus. Its natural veining is said to harmonize the body’s energy field.
