Reply To: Mysterious Gemstones?

From a website
“The healing capabilities of gemstones are recorded in both the Talmud and Zohar, indicating that Avraham Avinu had a healing stone hung around his neck which he was able to heal people (Talmud Baba Batra 16b).

Another reference to the hidden energies of gemstones, among many others, is the even tekumah, the ruby (some opinions point to it being carnelian). In Masechet Shabbat (10b) we learn that this gemstone holds within it the ability to safeguard pregnancy and assist women in all feminine areas of life.

Like other forms of energy medicine, gemstone energy medicine uses the body’s inherent healing force to nourish and heal us in multiple ways. Each type of gemstone embodies a unique energy that can focus and amplify this healing force and produce specific therapeutic effects.

Gemstone therapies work. Emotional maladies, mental complaints, and acute and chronic illnesses of all kinds have responded to gemstone energy medicine in unprecedented and exciting ways. Great wonder and wisdom will be found in the 12 Choshen stones for purifying surroundings, for wisdom and great wonder; (Zohar, Rebbe Shimon Bar Yochai). ”

Is any of this true?
