Healing Crystals in Rings

Healing crystals in jewelry is one of the most simple and effective ways to harness a stone’s energy and make it your own. This ensures that the crystal’s healing properties are  kept in your auric field, as well as making the crystal personal to you. Healing crystals in rings is a bit more complex than healing crystals in other types of jewelry, in that it requires some understanding of what each finger signifies.
