- Turquoise is actually a fairly rare stone and genuine pieces are harder to find than those stones which incorporate the term turquoise (African turquoise, for example). The stone is sacred to both Native American and oriental traditions and is considered a piece of sky that has fallen to earth. Turquoise assists in the balance and alignment of the chakras and helps to bring about a sense of calm. It is, therefore, excellent for exhaustion or depression.
