The technique for making a stone elixir for daily use is both an easy and simple process. Let us then explore the tools needed and the process of making the elixir. This process involves water that is enhanced by the metaphysical properties of the crystals or gemstones.
Tools you will need are as follows:
- One or more crystals or gemstones having the properties you desire
- A glass pitcher, jar, or bowl. Preferably clear, no color or writing on them. Perhaps even a clear Pyrex pan (for boiling)
- Water: Clear spring or mineral water. Some call for distilled water only.
- Cheese Cloth, plastic wrap, or covering cloth (no metal bowls or lids are acceptable)
Now that we have the tools, let’s proceed with making our gemstone elixir. Begin with clean stones. Program them with your intent. Place them in the bowl, add water, and cover with the cheese cloth or plastic wrap. Set it out in the sunlight and/or moonlight for up to 24 hours. After this is complete, bring the charged water inside and remove the stones and transfer the water into a jar or pitcher to drink over the next several days.
To make a “Mother Elixir” you will need to add one of the following ingredients in order to stabilize the elixir:
- Brandy/Vodka
- Apple Cider Vinegar
- Vegetable Glycerin
It is suggested that you use half stabilizer to half elixir, but it is better if you use your intuitive judgment here. Let the Stabilizer sit for about seven days. When stabilized, you may add as many drops as you feel necessary to a glass of pure water.
CAUTION: If you are using a raw stone or are not certain of the mineral content, use the indirect method to make your elixir. Using this method, you will not place the stones directly in the water but in a glass jar set into water or place just outside the base of the jar holding the water.

I made a lot of gemelxiers but didn’t add any stabilizer! Do I have to throw them all out and start again? What happens if I take drops without stabilizer in them?
Hello Maureen. The stabilizers enable you to keep the elixir for a long time. Without a stabilizer, you are creating a drink you can keep a short amount of time, just like a regular drink…you can extend it for a short time by refrigerating it. But just like any natural product, it will eventually deteriorate. So it depends upon what you want to do and how long you want to keep the elixir as to how you construct it.
