Amazonite

Amazonite is a lovely blue and green stone often streaked with white. It is an extremely soothing crystal and is believed to calm the brain and nervous system.

Amazonite is said to dispel negative energy and to improve confidence, leadership and communication. It is a useful stone to wear or carry if you have to face a challenging situation, have a difficult question to ask or have to speak in public. It is a good stone for writers and artists as it is thought to enhance self-expression and creativity. It can also be an aid to seeing both sides of a problem and in analysing and sorting out information.

Amazonite is said to be helpful for osteoporosis by assisting the body with the absorption of calcium. It is also said to be of benefit for relieving menstrual cramps and muscle cramps.

Amazonite is associated with the Heart and Throat Chakras.
