Tourmaline

According to legend, tourmaline is found in all colors because it travels over a rainbow and gathers each one's colors. In Africa, tourmaline stones were frequently used to aid in awakening from "the dream of illusion." The gem served as a tool for insight and aiding in the recognition of what is good in ancient Indian customs. Additionally, the source of issues or evil deeds would be identified. The strengthening benefits of tourmaline on the body and soul are thought to boost the nervous, blood, and lymphatic systems in particular. Poets and artists commonly used it as a talisman because they believed it would foster their creativity.
