Garnet History & Lore
It has been said that a garnet
engraved with the figure of a lion is an all around effective charm that will
protect and preserve health, cure the wearer of all disease, bring him honors,
and guard him from all the possible perils in traveling. It was also said to
warn the wearer of approaching danger and was long ago carried as a protective
talisman. One writer wrote that if a garnet loses its luster and shine, it is a
sure sign of coming disaster. There may be an affinity between garnets and the
warrior tradition. It is recorded that garnets have been used as pellets by a
group of native people of India, shot from bows.
