Semi-Precious Stones Mix for Mandala Offerings

Aspiring Buddhist practitioners should offer the best within their ability and means. In the case of mandala offerings, grains such as rice and barley were traditionally used. However as resources became more readily available, precious and semi-precious stones became the offering substances of choice.

This selection of semi-precious stones includes turquoise, red coral, amber, jade, rose quartz and citrine. Add them to grains, wooden beads or faux pearls to enhance your mandala offering substances.

These semi-precious stones were chosen for their symbolism and positive properties.

• Turquoise is one of the oldest symbols of protection and healing. Especially useful for clearing the Throat Chakra, and blockages of suppressed self-expression.


• Red Coral is said to help one achieve balance, peace and harmony, and is known as the stone of regeneration and purification. Facilitating intuition, imagination and visualisation, it is also a great learning and meditational aid, and is especially helpful for the Root Chakra.


• Amber is a powerful healer and balancer of the body, mind, spirit and environment. Associated with the Solar Plexus and Sacral Chakras, amber also relieves stress and depression, and enhances creativity and intellect.


• Green Jade, an oriental favourite, symbolises the virtues of wisdom, compassion and courage. Commonly used to promote peace, healing, balance and harmony, it is also said to attract the energies of wealth and love, and is considered a powerful protective talisman.


• Rose Quartz, often called the "Love Stone", symbolises the energy of unconditional love and is said to open the Heart Chakra to all forms of love.


• Citrine is known as a stone of abundance and manifestation, attracting and maintaining wealth, prosperity and success.
