Welcome to October.
October has several birth/sun stones. The month of October is represented by the
birthstones aquamarine, beryl, coral, jasper, opal, and tourmaline. Libra is connected to agate, lapis lazuli, peridot
and sapphire and Amethyst, Garnet, Ruby and Topaz are connected to
Scorpio.
Today we are going to highlight Tourmaline which is a
semi-precious gemstone with a hardness of 7 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale. Tourmaline is a combination of several
minerals; the most common or which are Elbaite, Schorl, and Dravite. Tourmaline comes in a very wide variety of colours
but today’s showcased piece is Black Tourmaline.
Tourmaline is a healing crystal that is associated with
moving beyond old habits which in turn make change a little easier.
Tourmaline is a powerful grounding stone and enhances
tolerance and understanding. This is the
stone of choice when a positive attitude is essential.
In ancient times, it was used to ward off evil spirits.
Today it is still used as a shamanic stone for protection and purification.
Black Tourmaline is great to wear at work for clarify and
energy and would benefit those with stressful jobs to release anxiety and even
anger.
Tourmaline is said to reduce toxins that cause chronic
diseases. Tourmaline is said to cause a
cleaning of the nervous system which again, as mentioned earlier, helps to
create less stress, alertness as well as greater circulation. It is important to remember that all healing
starts on a spiritual level.
Black Tourmaline is associated with the Root chakra.
