CHRYSOCOLLA for REMEMBRANCE DAY

Chrysocolla or Chrysacolla is a beautiful blue/green stone with a hardness of 2.5 to 3.5. 

We thought it only fitting that we choose this stone for our Remembrance Day post.  This is the perfect stone to use for meditating on world peace.  As you may have guessed, Chrysocolla is a peace and harmony stone.  Its energies are gentle. 

Its energies assist in clarity and using discretion when making important and on the spot stressful decisions. 

Metaphysically it is used to purify an area (room) or to assist an individual to release negativity. It assists those that carry nervous energy.

Physically, Chrysocolla is used for stress headaches, arthritis, muscle spasms and cramps.

Chrysocolla works with all of our chakras.  In particular, it heals the heart chakra and allows honesty yet gentleness with the throat chakra.
