Topaz has a joyful, zingy energy that brightens the darkest of moods, boosts confidence and helps you to tap into your inner riches and to share your good fortune and spread sunshine with the world.

A traditional stone of good fortune and good health, this vibrant crystal is imbued with joy, generosity, empathy and abundance and promotes truth, forgiveness, openness, honesty, self-realisation and self-control.

Instilling trust in the universe, it helps you to be rather than do. Topaz sharpens the mind, cuts through doubt and uncertainty and assists in problem solving, sheds light on the path, helping to attain goals.

It is also an excellent stone for anyone engaged in the arts and all creative pursuits, helping the expression ideas and conferring astuteness.

Emotionally stabilizing, Topaz makes you receptive to love and supports affirmations, manifestation and visualisation.

It has the capacity to see both the bigger picture and the minute detail, recognising how they interrelate.

Directing energy to where it is needed most, Topaz soothes, heals, stimulates, recharges and re-motivates. It aligns the meridians of the body.

 Topaz cleans the aura, induces relaxation, releases tension at any level and can speed up spiritual development where stilted.
