I notice that you have described gemstones without giving their spiritual values.The gemstone chrysolite is known by different names, according to its color, being called Peridot when of a deep olive-green, Olivine when of a yellowish-green, and Chrysolite when of a lighter or golden-yellow color. Chrysolite is from the Greek "chrysolithos" meaning a precious stone of golden color. It comes from "chryso" meaning precious things made of gold, and lithos meaning of building stones. The name Peridot is derived from the Greek word 'peridona', which means "to give richness." Peridot is the gemstone form of Olivine or Chrysolite and possesses a much richer green color. The gemstone meaning of Chrysolite is said to be gold, which in turn signifies wisdom and charity, virtues which are considered more perfect than all others. It gleams just like a furnace and represents wise and charitable men and women who demonstrate what they believe to others in both word and deed. Peridot is considered good for healing the healers. It brings understanding of destiny and purpose. Catholic Bishops traditionally wear a ring of Peridot and Amethyst as symbols of purity and morality. It is also said to represent the excellence of Jesus' divine nature. The Peridot represents God's Spirit - His Counsel. Counsel means the interchange of opinion; consultation and advice. But most importantly it means purpose and plan. When we receive God's Counsel we are receiving His purpose and plan for our lives. http://www.christianshepherd.org/e_books/t... http://www.fowlerbiblecollection.com/gemst...

Hello Helen! First let me thank you for your most admirable comments! And you're absolutely right. Mainly I was conveying the stones in a tribute of poetry. Each poem honors the layers of the precious tones related to Revelation prophecy. Yes, I'm delighted once more to your contribution and more insight for those curious of spiritual meanings. Excellent addition!!
Wow! what a great contribution to the poems I'm written.
