Stone for Cartomancy
When attending a divinatory reading in cartomancy, it is not uncommon to see the practitioner use a few touches to embellish the session somewhat. Thus, dimmed light and curls of smoke from incense sticks are often part of the setting.
But there are also often stones of various shapes and colours placed on the table by their side. We are going to see that these natural minerals are not laid out there merely to look pretty, but that they truly have a role to play during the session, so full are they of the most precious energetic properties.

What is a healing stone?
These various minerals are semi-precious stones that can sometimes be quite rare. These highly varied stones hold vibratory energies within them, which they have stored up over millennia while clinging to rocky walls, exposed to the climatic conditions, gases and organic matter contained in the atmosphere and scattered throughout nature. For many centuries they have been said to be healing stones with numerous beneficial virtues that are protective for our body, for these stones are influenced by the heavenly bodies. But moreover, they are associated with one or more of our internal chakras and will radiate their energetic flow within us so as to act upon our emotional and spiritual mind. Today they are classified under the term lithotherapy stones, this term designating energetic healing through stones and crystals. This practice, increasingly used in recent years, is part of alternative medicine, just like acupuncture, Reiki, Shiatsu and aromatherapy.

Stones for Cartomancy
A divinatory card reading, whether in cartomancy and even more so in tarot reading, calls for a great deal of reflection and psychology on the part of the practitioner. First of all to read and interpret what the various cards are going to reveal about the many aspects of the querent’s personality, but above all to be able to predict events to come in their future. This is why the contribution of one or more lithotherapy stones can be very wise during a session. They will very often be able to accompany the divinatory art wherever the cards lead it, and they will know how to protect from the evil eye and other negative energies that may come to disturb the reading. Here is a presentation of a few of these stones:
Rock Crystal
This stone, as transparent as a drop of water, is highly renowned for its purifying qualities. Indeed, it cleanses negative waves and at the same time makes it possible to amplify a healthy energy. It is therefore perfect for purifying the deck of cards before the reading, just like its lithotherapy twin, the Moonstone.

Amethyst
Just as purifying, this stone is perfect to be kept in a box with your deck of cards, which it will cleanse while it is not in use. In addition, one of the virtues of Amethyst is to develop intuition, which is no small thing during a reading.

It is a protective stone par excellence. It possesses powerful virtues for warding off the negative energies that may arise during a cartomancy session. It is often used for cases of incursion into the querent’s past life.

Azurite
It is perfect for unravelling situations of blockage during the exchange with the querent. While fostering communication, it is a precious help for transcribing the latter’s various emotions. Another stone named Malachite possesses the same qualities.

Lapis Lazuli
Greatly prized as far back as antiquity by Egyptian seers, this ocean-blue stone brings an incomparable clarity of mind. It fosters concentration and develops intuition. It is the stone that many tarot readers lay around their cards during a reading.

Tourmaline
It is a grounding stone that therefore makes it possible to keep contact with reality. It releases stress before a reading and wards off negative waves during its course. It is perfect to be placed near the practitioner’s hands, right on the card mat.

The contribution of a stone during a session
We will have understood that the healing stones of lithotherapy are partners of choice during a cartomancy session. Their numerous positive impacts will be beneficial both for the practitioner and the querent, throughout the entire course of a divinatory reading. Whether one practises with a traditional deck of cards, with an Oracle or a Marseille tarot deck, the stones will be the best companions for them. Note that they can be found individually or in sets, and that there are also boxed sets which include the complete deck of cards complemented by the few stones that best correspond to it. But all this of course remains a deeply personal choice, that you alone will be able to make according to your expectations.
