Topaz Metaphysical Properties: 

Known as a 'stone of true love and success in all endeavors', it can promote individuality and creativity, while providing confidence in trusting ones decisions. It acts to replace negativity with love and joyfulness. The energy of Topaz acts through the laws of attraction and manifestation. The gentle shades of Topaz serve as a catalytic Trigger for the manifestation activities, while the vibratory resonance acts with an ethereal magnetic effect. This mineral is the 'crystal of potency', quite instrumental in visualization for healing and/or attracting, in meditation, and in projection. It helps one to absorb that which is needed from the universe, prompting receptivity and willingness to act. Enhances awareness and induces the states of expansiveness and manifestation: Reference The Book of Stones:
