Agate provides for balancing of yin-yang energy and for balancing of the physical, emotional, and intellectual bodies with the etheric energies. It stabilizes the aura, providing for a cleansing effect which acts to smooth dysfunctional energies and to both transform and eliminate negativity. It further assists one in the development of precision in examination of oneself and of circumstances relevant to ones well-being.  Agate is said to have been one of the stones used in the breastplate of the high priest.  In historic times, it was placed in water for use in cooking and/or for drinking in order to dispel sickness.  Agate can be used to stimulate analytical capabilities and precision. It provides for perceptiveness to situations and awakens ones inherent talents and adroitness. It is also used to produce inspiration from and connectedness with the entities residing in the spiritual worlds.  It has been reported to strengthen the sight, to diminish thirst, and to promote marital fidelity.  Vibrates to the number 7.  In addition to the above properties common to the agate family, specific types of agates possess further qualities.
