Crystal of the month: Malachite

Malachite can be a great equalizing and balancing agent. It strengthens our ability to take action in the world and to create from our thoughts and ideas. The energy it emits drives one to create and manifest their dreams and desires. It can help find resolve to overcome difficulty and stay true to one’s path with confident action. It helps one to get clear by melting constrictive energy patterns in the aura.

Malachite is one of the most important stones for protection of negative energies. It holds the negative energy until cleared, so it is important to cleanse/clear your stone regularly. this stone assists with maintaining emotional balance, but without the temptation of taking on the emotional baggage of others. This stone vibrates the healthiest pattern for the emotional and physical heart. It also stimulates the solar-plexus chakra enhancing willpower.

This stone reminds us that we are here to co-create with the Universe. There is no ‘fate” as action is required for manifestation. It is helpful in clearing through the emotional fog and overcoming fear to help one realize their place and purpose. It is no surprise that this stone is associated with enlightened leadership, creativity, confidence, protection, a healed heart.

I chose this stone as this is the beginning of the year manifestations and new beginnings. Transformation is vibrating through the ether and it is time to seize opportunities and get things done!

Malachite harmonizes with tiger eye for physical energy and protection and works well with other copper-based minerals such as Azurite, turquoise and Chrysocolla.
