Sunstone improves mood and stimulates feelings of joy, optimism, and confidence.

It helps you be decisive.

Dimensions: 3 cm

Material: Sunstone rough, semi-precious stone

Sunstone is a beautiful orange-brown color, therefore connected to the second and third chakras. Its triclinic crystal system makes it perfect for very practical people who do not want to put up with unnecessary problems. It tries to achieve the desired result with little effort. It loves the daily rhythm, trying to take advantage of the well-established structure of the day. Every now and then, it loves to let go and relax. This crystal structure also makes sunstone particularly suitable for the crown chakra.

Properties of sunstone

Our ancestors believed that the sunstone fell from the sky, from the mother star of our solar system during an eclipse. It was also considered a precious lucky charm as well as a very beautiful jewel to wear. Ultimately, it was the representation of the Sun God, as the one who gives life and abundance.

Benefits for the body

In crystal therapy, sunstone is used to speed up metabolism and restore good digestion. It has a rebalancing power on the various organs. It acts on the throat and stomach area, reducing tension. It helps overcome depressive states that occur during seasonal changes.

Among its other physical properties, we find:

• Relieving rheumatism and cartilage problems
• Arthritis
• Cramps
• Fever
• Various types of infections

Benefits for the mind

Use sunstone if you feel psychologically attached to your loved ones and cannot let them live their own lives. In fact, by using this mineral, you will be able to put love and unconditional, non-possessive kindness first. At the same time, it helps you recognize which bonds need to be cut.

It is the perfect stone for you if you are facing important study sessions or creative work; it helps you maintain high concentration and not procrastinate. It stimulates your thirst for independence, leading you to think in individualistic terms, but without ignoring the importance of teamwork.

Sunstone encourages an optimistic view of life, removing the hooks that keep us attached to harmful emotional patterns. It helps us transform anger into determination to achieve goals. It allows you to see things in a much more detached way, without becoming insensitive.

Benefits for the spirit

This feldspar has important spiritual properties. Its crystal system is connected to the seventh chakra. By using it in meditation, for example, you can count on a valuable ally that will help you explore the essence of your soul. It makes you more confident about the future and destiny.

It works comprehensively on the chakras, purifying all the main energy centers of the human body. It has a special action on the root and sacral chakras, stimulating both creativity and sexuality.

It also works very well on increasing enthusiasm and a greater connection with reality. By wearing it constantly as a ring or bracelet, it allows you to work on the feelings you have been suppressing for a long time, those that prevent you from savoring the good things in life. It is also highly appreciated by deeply spiritual people, such as missionaries who dedicate their lives to serving others.

Amazonite protects against negative energies and electromagnetic radiation.

It helps to have a more stable mind and greater intuitive wisdom.

Amazonite is a microcline, that is, an alkaline feldspar, recognizable by its perfect cleavage. It can be of magmatic origin (hydrothermal formation process or in pegmatites), secondary (sedimentary), or metamorphic (crystalline schists).

The blue-green color, which takes on a pearlescent luster under magnification, is due to the presence of lead and resembles river water.

It owes its name to the Amazon River, from which it was believed to originate: in reality, no deposits are known in the Amazon area, while it is certainly extracted in some areas of the Ural Mountains in Russia and in Colorado in the United States. It often features reddish-brown iron inclusions.

Element

Water: the water element concerns the sphere of emotions and femininity (love, healing, compassion, reconciliation, intuition);

Air: the air element concerns the sphere of communication and intellect (ability to express oneself, creativity, wisdom, travel);

Earth: the earth element concerns the sphere of stability and well-being (peace, balance, fertility, money).

Chakra associated with Amazonite

Fourth chakra Anahata ("Heart") and fifth chakra Vishuddha ("Throat")

Mythology

Amazonite is known as "Amazon rock" because of its resemblance to nephrite, which, according to the Indians of the Rio Negro, came from the "Land of Women"; for this reason, it was attributed with the property of making women beautiful and attractive. It only received its current name in the 18th century, so we have no earlier data, although Egyptian artifacts testify to its use in much more remote times. It is considered a lucky stone especially for gamblers because it promotes self-control.

Effect on the body

Amazonite eliminates metabolic liver disorders and relieves muscle spasms. It increases the ability to withstand fatigue. It strengthens the nervous system and harmonizes the functions of the pituitary gland and the thymus, and regulates the functioning of the internal organs. It has the ability to strengthen the nerves after severe depression. It alleviates heart problems caused by excessive worry.

Effect on the psyche

Amazonite instills decisiveness, confidence, and a sense of freedom. It is a stone of transformation. It strengthens the ability to make decisions and develops personal intuition. The vibrations of Amazonite stimulate one to complete what has been started, thus making one persevering.

Among the stones, it is the one that gives us the most willpower to break free from stress, depression, and vices. Its energy serves to combat bad habits such as alcoholism, drug addiction, and smoking addiction because it promotes courage, determination, and the survival instinct to overcome these vices.

It counters victimhood and fatalism. It helps the individual free themselves from the idea of being a victim of a cruel and unchangeable fate, and stimulates them to take the reins of their own existence. It reduces extreme mood swings and has a calming and rebalancing effect. It helps overcome states of sadness and the feeling of oppression.

Amazonite increases tolerance toward others, activates our expressive abilities, and encourages us to speak according to our higher mind, encouraging balance in our expressions. It is often difficult to express one's inner truth, but words are a powerful tool to use in the creation of reality. Through the expression of personal truth, one gains respect for oneself and for others.

Snowflake Obsidian is a black obsidian with white or gray spots.

Size: 1 - 2.5 cm

Material: Snowflake Obsidian, semi-precious stone

Delivered with a black cotton cord.

Stone of Centering and Change

Snowflake obsidian is an excellent aid and support for recognizing, first of all, and subsequently releasing negative thoughts. By negative thoughts, I mean wrong thoughts and repetitive, deep-seated patterns that limit us. All this is to promote rapid change. The stone works specifically on being centered, on feeling inner balance.

Another characteristic of the stone is that it brings to the surface everything that is held back and thus causes stress and inner imbalance. Suppressed emotions and thoughts are helped to emerge with extreme gentleness and in the most beneficial way for the person; let us not forget, after all, that we are talking about a stone linked to serenity and purity, and therefore it could never cause harm.

Stone of Protection and Healing

It is also a wonderful stone of protection against physical and emotional harm, as it creates a shield against negativity by transforming and purifying negative vibrations within the environments in which we live. We can truly consider it a “detergent” for negative energies, as it helps to remove, as we said, not only negativity in the environment, but also that linked to one's own emotions, such as anger, jealousy, greed, resentment, envy, etc., by strengthening emotional stability. This results in the ability to keep one's emotions in balance, avoiding “wild” mood swings that destabilize ourselves and those around us. Carrying or wearing Obsidian helps us to disperse those unkind thoughts that arise from within and reverberate outward into the world and onto the people who surround us.

It is very useful in all healing processes, as it helps to clarify the cause of the illness or disorder. In this way, it promotes subsequent improvement and makes us more receptive to the healing energies needed to create the right positive attitude in this regard.

Snowflake Obsidian and Physical Disorders

At a physical level, the stone acts on the vascular system, improving blood flow and working very well on veins and capillaries. The improvement in blood circulation will help warm the hands and feet of those who are chronically cold. It also works on the skeletal system, on the skin, making it smooth, and supports the healing of wounds.

Mind and Emotions

At a mental and emotional level, it drives away fears of all kinds and helps to release emotional blocks and traumas. It refines the mind and drives away stress. Furthermore, it is an excellent means of materializing and making ideas and projects tangible.

It also helps us to bring out and see our shadow sides in their true nature so that they can become part of our new self.

Bits of History and Legends

Snowflake obsidian chips and blades have been found in burial sites dating back to the Paleolithic. Over time, it was considered a stone that had the power to drive away demons. In the Middle Ages, it was used as an aid and support for magical rituals. Mayan Priests used mirrors made of this stone to predict the future. Shamans used it to come into contact with the spirit world. Every wizard worth their salt had an obsidian stone that allowed them to concentrate astral forces.
