Malachite - Bold Transformer

Malachite is one of the strongest stones of protection and transformation. The emotional resonance of the stone is bold, protective and uncompromosing. It serves as a psyhcological mirror, forcing you to acknowledge the patterns that keep you stuck while providing the "tough love" needed to break them.

Malachite shields the wearer from negative vibrations and aids in alerting the wearer to unbalanced emotional states that could cause harm. It stimulates the heart chakra by emanating healthy energy patterns maintaining positive emotional balance. -Estela Carson-Priede

Malachite harmonizes with Tiger Eye for physical energy and protection and with Morganite for balancing heart chakra. Works well with other copper-based minerals such as Azurite, Turquoise, Shattuckite, Chrysocolla and Ajoite. 

The Ritual:

Lay Malachite over the Solar Plexus during meditation to draw out emotional toxins. Afterward, ground yourself by barefoot walking to discharge the intensity the stone has stirred up. - Estela Carson-Priede
