Sizes: variable

Material: Howlite

History

Howlite is a fairly common white stone. It is characterized by gray inclusions that make it look striped; sometimes these inclusions are black or bluish.

Sometimes it can also be found colorless. It is often used as an imitation of the much more expensive turquoise and is therefore dyed blue. Howlite is used because its white color and porous nature make it suitable for imitations. Sometimes it is dyed red as a substitute for coral.

Howlite belongs to the borate class and was first described by Henry How in 1868. Transparent crystals are very rare. It was discovered in Canada, but today the main sources are found in Los Angeles and California. The sources in Marmara and Turkey are also very important.

Properties of howlite

Howlite is a fairly common stone in crystal therapy, although it has not achieved the fame of other crystals. It is particularly appreciated in jewelry for imitating the more precious turquoise and coral. This does not mean, however, that it lacks properties.

Physical benefits

Physically, it increases oxygen flow, helps with thyroid problems, and can also be useful in supporting treatments for autoimmune and degenerative diseases. It is used in crystal therapy treatments also against infections. It stimulates fertility and strengthens the heart.

Psychological benefits

Psychologically, however, it is used to overcome past wounds and traumas, to process anger, and to renew oneself. It is used for anxiety, shock, and panic. It gives a new self-confidence and helps find the strength to move forward.

Wear it as a pendant at heart level if you need to open up a little more to your feelings. It is a stone that amplifies vibrations, increases love for yourself and others. At the same time, it helps calm overly stormy thoughts and feelings, and to put fears and feelings such as jealousy into perspective. It teaches you to adopt less impulsive behaviors and to be more understanding and tolerant toward others.

Spiritual benefits

Spiritually, as a white stone, howlite can be used for the seventh chakra. It helps you listen to yourself and take responsibility. It allows for better and healthier contact with the environment and other people.

Tumbled Garnet

Garnet is a very hard stone that forms in the deepest layers of the earth. It is known for igniting the survival instinct and willpower, and therefore counters feelings such as depression and discouragement.

This stone gives courage, optimism, and hope. Garnet stimulates self-healing abilities, strengthens the immune system, and improves blood circulation and blood quality. It is a truly revitalizing stone.

Dimensions: variable

Material: Garnet, semi-precious stone

Garnet is still considered a powerful symbol of transformation today. Although it is aesthetically “insignificant” in its raw state, once worked, it becomes a wonderful stone. This is why it is recommended for those who have to face a difficult moment involving transformation or change.

Benefits for the body

It has great regenerative energy. Physically, it harmonizes fluids, especially the blood. It stimulates metabolism and strengthens our immune system, making us stronger at fighting and preventing illnesses. It is also recommended for those who have difficulty absorbing nutrients in the intestines. When applied locally to a bleeding wound, garnet helps it heal.

Benefits for the mind

Garnet gives greater self-confidence and therefore increases self-esteem. It is a beacon in the dark, bringing joy of life and great optimistic willpower to overcome all the challenges one must face. It makes one highly persevering, freeing the person from fixed patterns and inhibitions. Precisely for this reason, it is sometimes considered and used as an aphrodisiac. Garnet is useful for men and women who are afraid to express their sexuality, often caused by some negative past experiences. Finally, on a mental level, it is recommended when one wants to give birth to new ideas and bring projects to life, because it offers the strength necessary to emerge without fear and leave behind obsolete, limiting ideas.

Benefits for the spirit

As I said at the beginning, garnet is a stone that illuminates, helping to emerge from a dark period and depression. Use it if you are in a situation that seems to have no way out. If we are experiencing such a strong moment of crisis that all our hope and values have collapsed.

It strengthens the desire to emerge, releasing light within the person wearing it. It brings a great state of harmony not only with oneself but also with everyone close by.

The new "Jade" is not actually jade, but a type of light green serpentine.

It is a stone for having a calm mood and helps when we feel stuck in a situation.

It is said that stones of this type help with emotional cleansing in general and are believed to be an excellent stone for meditation.

Dimensions: variable

Material: Serpentine Jade

Serpentine is a mineral with various shades of green. It has a rather scaly appearance when in its raw form, and that is precisely why it was given the name serpentine. It has been used for healing purposes for several centuries; even in pre-Roman times, they believed it had the power to keep diseases and spells at bay. Serpentine amulets were quite common. Clearly, there was a lot of superstition back then, but still, if you want to give a wonderful gift to someone who feels particularly plagued by "bad luck," then opt for this stone!

From a mineralogical point of view, serpentine is very interesting. First of all, it forms in a tertiary environment, that is, through the metamorphism of basic igneous rocks. Perhaps it has also been sold to you under the name of "New Jade." It can be found on the market in three different forms. A lamellar form, a fibrous one, and a striated one.

Properties of serpentine

Serpentine is used in crystal therapy to heal and clear the aura of all energy blocks that prevent complete and full healing. It works excellently on the mental, physical, and emotional levels. It is, in my opinion, the quintessential stone that reflects the Eastern view of healing. In order for the individual to truly feel well, it is necessary to work on all three levels. During a crystal therapy session, place it at the height of the heart chakra to work on feelings.

It is also used to awaken the Kundalini energy, the serpent that is coiled at the base of our spine, in the first chakra.

Benefits for the body

From a physiological point of view, serpentine is useful for all problems related to the heart, especially heart rhythm disorders. Some crystal therapists also use it for people who have stomach problems, especially in cases of constipation or dysentery. It is useful for people who cannot lose weight due to a slow metabolism. Simply keep it in contact with the skin to obtain benefits in this regard, thus speeding up metabolic functions. Women can keep this stone near their ovaries (so the idea is that you use two) to relieve menstrual cycle pain. Benefits for the mind I really like serpentine because it is an excellent ally in case of nervousness. Very often, in fact, we let ourselves be overcome by stress and anxiety because of the people around us. For example, when we are criticized for the choices we have made, or for those we are unable to make. The fear of disappointing… in short, it is often our anxiety about betraying the expectations of others that pushes us to live in a perpetual state of stress.

Serpentine protects us from these influences, teaching us to distance ourselves from the desires of others to prioritize our own. Use it and you will also notice that often it is possible to find a solution that works for everyone, making you more open to compromise.

It seems that serpentine also helps in the sexual sphere by unblocking women who can never reach orgasm during intercourse with their partner.

Benefits for the spirit

Serpentine is a very valuable stone from a spiritual point of view. If you are a very chaotic person, it helps you find balance within yourself, to find that little corner of tranquility in the middle of a 24-hour day to reflect, to investigate who you really are. I strongly recommend you use it during meditation practice!

Jade is a purifying stone that attracts prosperity. It is said to protect against accidents and injuries, so it is a good stone to carry when traveling. Jade stimulates the creation of all kinds of ideas and the determination to put them into practice.

The stone promotes self-fulfillment and self-confidence and helps let go of negative emotions, such as agitation. Physically, Jade has a strong purifying effect, eliminating toxins from the body.

Jade Description

Mineral class: phyllosilicates. Chemical formula: NaAl[Si2O6] + Ca, Fe, Mg, Mn

Jade is an ornamental stone and not strictly a mineral, but rather a collection of particular silicate minerals (jadeite and nephrite) distributed in a structure made of very fine granules and interwoven fibers.

The color is rarely uniform: on a white or off-white background, slight shades of pink, lavender, or purple blend together, or more often emerald green or light green due to the presence of chromium.

Today, other minerals are sold under the name of jade, such as serpentine, which not only has the same appearance but is also extracted from the same deposits as jadeite and nephrite, although it is more malleable and less resistant.

Element

Water: the water element relates to the sphere of emotions and femininity (love, healing, compassion, reconciliation, intuition).

Chakra Associated with Jade

Second chakra Svadhishthana ("Sacral") and fourth chakra Anahata ("Heart")

Mythology

The name "jade" derives from the Spanish pedra de ijada, meaning "stone of the sides," given its traditional beneficial power over the lower back and kidneys, and dates back to the time of the Spanish conquest of Central America, where this stone was highly appreciated and finely worked.

In ancient China, it was a sacred stone used to make urns because it was believed to have the power to prevent corrosion and ward off evil spirits. In traditional Chinese literature, gold and jade are often mentioned together and are considered symbols of wealth.

Even today, the price of good-quality jade is worth no less than a piece of gold of the same weight. Confucius (551-479 BC) states that jade possesses eleven virtues, including benevolence (it is soft and smooth to the touch), loyalty (it never irritates the skin), education, and sincerity (a flaw in jade is never hidden). Confucian culture also taught that a man should define his manners and conduct in accordance with the virtues of jade.

Effect on the Body

Jade strengthens the liver, spleen, and heart. It reactivates circulation, purifies the blood, and stimulates the immune system.

It has rebalancing properties for the entire body. It is beneficial for kidney activity and combats swelling in the legs and knees.

Effect on the Psyche

Jade has calming, soothing, and alleviating properties for troubled moods. It eliminates fear, consoles, and invites benevolence. It helps the heart find compassion to make the right decisions. It rebalances emotions and gives modesty and clarity of thought. It opens the mind and encourages renewal

Purple Fluorite is a stone that provides stability and protection; it promotes recovery.

It acts on intuition, provides support in breaking through spiritual blocks, and strengthens spiritual abilities.

It can help achieve a state of deep meditation.

Dimensions: variable

Material: Purple Fluorite

Fluorite Description

Mineral class: halides.

Chemical formula: CaF2 + (C, Cl, Fe, Ce, Y).

Fluorite is a fairly common mineral composed of calcium fluoride. It can be of primary, secondary, or tertiary origin. The most important deposits are of magmatic origin.

It cleaves perfectly into octahedral crystals, that is, a double pyramid joined at the base.

Almost always transparent and translucent, or with a glassy luster, it is rarely colorless, while it is commonly found in purple, green, yellow, orange, light blue, pink, brown, and black. Multiple colors can be found in a single crystal, and it has the characteristic of changing color when exposed to the sun or heat, while returning to normal at night.

Element

Fire: the fire element concerns the sphere of energy and masculine strength (courage, willpower, purification, conquest).

Chakra associated with Fluorite

Sixth chakra Ajna ("Forehead or Third Eye") and seventh chakra Sahasrara ("Crown")

Mythology

The name derives from the Latin fluere, "to flow," and it has been known as "flowing stone" since the mid-18th century: it was not considered a true mineral, in fact, because it was classified in the category of spats, that is, those minerals easily cleavable (from the German spalten, "to divide") and the adjective fluid was added to it because its shiny appearance reminded of that of molten glass. It is no coincidence that fluorite, together with quartz and colored glass, was used as a substitute for precious stones as far back as ancient Greece.

When exposed to ultraviolet rays, it exhibits the phenomenon of fluorescence, a phenomenon that takes its name precisely from this material.

Effect on the body

Fluorite stimulates the regeneration of the skin and mucous membranes, especially regarding the respiratory tract and lungs. It helps the absorption of calcium and therefore strengthens the teeth and bones. It is indicated in case of joint problems and general stiffness, including those related to arthritis. It relieves discomfort in case of psychosomatic allergy and promotes the activity of the nervous system, in particular that of the brain. Useful for those who have memory problems, a sense of disorientation, and lack of concentration.

Effect on the psyche

Fluorite promotes freedom of thought and pushes the individual not to compromise and not to be influenced by external influences for the realization of their own life. It helps to restructure one's existence and achieve a state of autonomy and emotional stability, instilling confidence and dissolving mental confusion.

It promotes learning by stimulating the perception of relationships between things and the reprocessing of information, therefore the logical-cognitive faculty of the subject. The ability to align the body with the mind and bring the mind into harmony with the spirit is the true talent of this stone: fluorite encourages channeling the energies of meditation and prayer on the earthly plane.

It stimulates creativity and imagination. It facilitates contact with one's unconscious and makes repressed feelings conscious by gradually bringing them to light. It is useful for overcoming addictions, obsessions, and limiting thought and behavior patterns.

It develops self-discipline and a sense of order, concentration, and grounding while still keeping the person's vital energy at a high level of openness. Self-discipline is essential to control and correct one's thoughts, actions, and words and improve oneself. It is the inner strength necessary to shape one's life as desired.

How to use fluorite

Fluorite can be cleansed after use under running water. To obtain lasting effects on the spiritual plane, it is recommended to always carry fluorite in close contact with the skin or apply it to the affected area for physical-level therapy. To strengthen the sense of order, groups of fluorite crystals can be placed in the environment: their presence reminds the mind to stay focused and helps organize work.

During meditation, a fluorite pyramid is useful for going deeper into oneself in search of balance between the dimensions of being, allowing one to see the reality behind the illusion, the eternal behind the transitory, the truth beyond confusion.

Green Fluorite works particularly on the heart chakra. It is a stabilizing stone that helps restore emotional balance and balance between the head and heart.

It absorbs and protects against negative energy.

This stone is known to have a positive effect on stiffness, stomach problems, and joints.
