When in doubt, follow your own intuition. It is possible that different people have different responses to some minerals, due to healing issues, geography, or other factors. Also, too many different kinds of stones can be disadvantageous; apparently the frequencies of some stones cancel out those of others. It is good to be energy-sensitive or a good dowser if you venture into creative combinations. Sometimes the addition of an expensive stone is of little advantage or worse.
Breaking up stones: Some of these stones seem better when broken up into smallish pieces of 1/8 to 1/4 inch. Some of them are damn tough to break. Some pieces will tend to bounce out, which is wasteful and can be dangerous. Take proper precautions, which include putting a layer of heavy paper, plastic, or old blue jeans, etc. over the rocks. Also, when you break rocks up, you will end up with some fine powdery stuff which is great to use stirred into epoxy. But beware! Unless maybe you are working only with very finely powdered stuff, at least some powders, notably pyrite, tend to cause problems in polyester resin; the tendency is for the stuff to settle in the bottom of the mould due to the weight, and for some reason to interfere with the hardening in the tip. Actually, it may be that even pyrite works fine if finely powdered enough.Sometimes it works out fine, but often not. Especially in a cone, pyramid, or tetrahedron, where the tip is well below the center of heat. Save up those powders for use in epoxy. At least the coarser metallic ones.
Quartz: of course. Sometimes add a piece of citrine or amethyst (coloured quartz.)
Malachite: Malachite is very easy to break up; it acts as a reliable energy booster … Malachite is Copper Carbonate.
Sodalite: This is another inexpensive stone, at least for rough untumbled pieces. It is blue with white veins, and looks much like lapis. Sodalite is also fairly easy to break up, although it takes a hammer. This is almost as good as malachite, and synergistic with about everything.Iron Pyrite: This needs to be broken up, which is not always real easy.
Garnets: also add a boost.
Howlite: White with grey veins. This is another great stone like sodalite, adds power and good vibes and is synergistic with everything.
Obsidian: If you want to make cheap but powerful TBs or cylindrical units, make Big Secret coils and put an Apache tear in each horn. No other minerals required.Actually, any copper coil around an Apache tear makes for a nice-feeling unit.
Unakite: This stone has good energy and could be added, but it is very tough to break up. Feels like a very healing energy.
Agate: Agate is like quartz minus the crystalline structure. Agates come in many different colorus. Some agates have much better energy than others. If you are not energy-sensitive, you may wish to buy Apache tears instead; these are reliably of uniform good quality.
Amber is actually fossilized tree sap, and also adds a strong "glow" that may not be compatible with everything;
Amethyst: is very closely related to citrine. Beautiful purple quartz with a high, sweet, frequency. Used for exorcism. Used like citrine. Crushed into fine pieces, it can be sprinkled into the orgonite mix. It "softens" the energy of orgonite. As in makes it less aggressive for busting purposes. It has a very sweet energy.
Bloodstone is excellent in contact with selenite. A great combo is selenite + bloodstone + blue kyanite. Calcite is very good too. And copper, silver, added to this make it even stronger.Calcite: A very good stone.
Citrine: yellow quartz that is believed to be unable to accept a negative charge. One can add a cheap little tumbled one to small units, ideally in contact with any clear quartz used. One can also use this stone in high-quality units.
Danburite: this is the ultimate crystal to use. It is incorruptible and has a much stronger action than quartz against evil energy. It is the stone of choice for remote-warfare weapons.
Hematite: Many people consider this a basic ingredient for improving orgonite. Hematite is very remarkably synergistic with magnets
Lapis Lazuli: It can add a nice glow to the energy of a unit. (Source: loohan.com) (Original Orgonite in image by Matthew James)
