Gemstones! Malachite: Stone of Transformation!

Sometimes I like to pick up a gemstone and hold it when I am meditating.  I love gemstones!  I have more than what I can use for jewelry making and that’s OK!  They are pretty and fun to have around, and they have metaphysical meanings and natural vibrations which also make them rather fascinating!

Wonderful for meditation practice

Today I chose malachite to meditate with.  This often-banded beautiful green stone is a copper mineral and has historically been used for a pigment in painting.  It was used in ancient Egypt and in European 15thand 16thcentury paintings. It can still be purchased today and is manufactured for painters who are using historically accurate techniques.

There seems to be a variety of qualities energy-wise that this gemstone is purported to have.  It is a stone of transformation.  It is for personal growth, wisdom and deep heart work. It is often used for heart and throat chakra healing, as well as for deep energy clearing for all of the chakras.  Personal transformation! Very useful!!

Useful for heart chakra

Another use for malachite is as a stone of protection and to clear obstructions and patterns that have been holding you back. So if you are looking to be more creative in any way, this stone’s vibrations may be helpful to you.  I enjoy having malachite around as I am drawn to the rich green color and fun patterning that is unique to every stone! 

Beautiful banding!!

Please share how you use this stone!  And how do you find it adds to your gemstone collection?
