Called the Stone of Courage and the Stone of Truth, Amazonite empowers one to search the self and discover one’s truths and integrity, and to move beyond fear of judgment or confrontation with others to live in alignment with those beliefs and values. It provides the freedom to express one’s thoughts and feelings, and to set strong and clear boundaries, both internally as self-discipline, and externally on what one is willing to experience or in defining personal space.
Amazonite is named for the Amazon River in Brazil and the lush jungle region surrounding it where the original “green stones” were discovered.
Amazonite has a powerful filtering action. At a physical level, it blocks geopathic stress, absorbs microwaves and cell phone emanations and protects against electromagnetic pollution. It should be placed between you and the source of any pollution or taped to a cellphone.
Healing
Amazonite heals and opens both the heart and the throat chakras to enhance loving communications. It also opens the third eye and intuition. This stone dissipates negative energy and blockages within the nervous system. It is beneficial in osteoporosis, tooth decay, calcium deficiency and calcium deposits balancing the metabolic deficiencies that create these conditions.
A major property is a protection it affords from the health hazards of microwaves and other sources of electromagnetic smog.
User notes:
I used Amazonite in the very first prototype for project Aura5. When I use Amazonite I find that I'm less worried about how it will affect others and I just speak the truth as I know it regardless of possible consequences.
