This beautiful mineral comes in various product types It is readily available and is often beautifully incorporated into jewellery.
We have taken our information about this beautiful stone from the comprehensive book ‘The Wisdom of Stones’ by Robert Simmons & Naisha Ahsian. Highly recommended if you’re interested in how stones work!
There are many different stones that connect you to the light; amber also radiates warmth. The energies of amber are very sunny. They give you a pleasant sense of warmth, health and wellbeing. Amber possesses a vibration of organic life, as it originated from living trees. This makes it feel friendly and familiar.
Amber warms your inner being and activates your life force and your emotional longing for health. It helps you see the path to recovery more clearly and gives you the courage and confidence to follow it. Amber possesses the vibration of life force and helps us bring more of that energy into every level of our being.
This mineral purifies and transforms negative or stagnant energy – whether on an energetic, emotional or physical level – into clear frequencies. Just as trees absorb the ‘waste product’ carbon dioxide and convert it into oxygen, so Amber absorbs ‘waste energy’ and turns it into usable energy. The stone purifies your aura and cleanses vibrations in its surroundings. Amber is therefore a perfect protective stone.
