The energy of Amazonite
Amazonite is the stone of harmony within yourself and between people. It is a stone that encourages speaking the truth and fostering peace. It helps you to express your thoughts and feelings without becoming overly emotional.
Amazonite is associated with the heart chakra and therefore stimulates it. It helps you to express your truth, but also to understand the other person’s point of view and to create harmony. When, through self-reflection, you become aware of conflicting aspects of your personality, this special stone can help you to gain a clear understanding of them – for example, through lucid dreams when you sleep with the Amazonite. As it is the stone of truth, you can also trust the dreams, visions and insights you receive whilst working with this stone.
As this green stone also works on the throat chakra, it is beneficial to speak your intentions, dreams and desires out loud. When you hold Amazonite in your hands whilst powerfully affirming out loud what you wish to create, you strengthen your ability to actually bring this to fruition. The stone also opens and purifies this chakra when, out of fear of conflict or confrontation, you keep your thoughts and feelings to yourself.
Are you unsure what you have to offer the world? This stone can help by drawing your attention to your gifts and knowledge. Even if you find it difficult to set your boundaries, Amazonite is a lovely stone to carry with you. You’ll learn to recognise and express your own truth, so that you can clearly determine what you do and don’t want to experience. It helps you overcome your fears of conflict, enabling you to set clearer boundaries on a physical, emotional and energetic level.
Do you tend to be very influenced by other people’s opinions and judgements? Or do you tend to impose your own opinions and judgements on others? If so, try using Amazonite to find a balance here.
Spiritual level
On a spiritual level, you use Amazonite to convey higher truths and knowledge. It is the stone of truth, which helps you to see the truth within yourself and in others. You learn to recognise your energy boundaries more clearly.
Amazonite also supports physical recovery from all manner of conditions. If you are recovering from trauma or injury, it is helpful to draw on the support of Amazonite. It stimulates healing at a cellular level and is also suitable for wearing if you suffer from gout or arthritis. Amazonite can help to bring the thyroid and adrenal glands back into balance when these glands are under excessive strain due to high levels of stress or suppressed emotions.
