Amazonite

Amazonite is a stone of harmony, both within the self and among people.  It is a truth-teller and a peacemaker, assisting one in communicating one’s true thoughts and feelings without over-emotionalism.  This is the first step towards both inner and outer peace.  The second step is activated by Amazonite’s awakening of compassion through stimulation of the heart chakra. 

Once one has expressed one’s truth, it is necessary to assume to other person’s point of view in order to achieve harmony, and Amazonite facilities this.  A similar process operates within oneself, as the competing factions of one’s personality with their separate motivations and desires come to awareness through self-examination.

Amazonite can also empower us in manifesting our dreams and desires.  It is a magnifier of our intentions and because its works through the throat chakra, these intentions are best spoken aloud.

Amazonite teaches us to speak the truth and to make what we speak come true.

Amazonite is deeply stimulating for the heart and throat chakras.  It energy is that of personal truth.  It opens and clears the throat chakra to assist those who tend to repress the expression of their own thoughts and feelings due to fear of confrontation or conflict.  This stone also assists one in identifying how one’s words have created current reality, and how to change one’s vocabulary or communication style to reflect a higher, more aligned reality. 

Amazonite is excellent for those who are in positions of conflict resolution or who need to communicate their own truth more effectively.

Amazonite can also be helpful for this who are out of touch with their truth.  When someone doesn’t know what they want, or what they feel, Amazonite can assist them in gaining clarity.  For those who are unclear about what they have to offer the world, Amazonite can gently point them toward their gifts and knowledge.

Amazonite is also a powerful ally for those who have difficulty in setting appropriate boundaries.  Because of its ability to help one to overcome fear of conflict, it frees one to identify and sent strong and clear boundaries on physical, energetic and emotional levels.  These can be internal boundaries that help one to develop self-discipline, or external boundaries that assist one in defining one’s personal space.

Amazonite can assist one ‘walking one’s talk’ and aligning one’s actions to one’s words.  In this sense, it assists in learning the lessons of integrity and truth.  It is an excellent tone for those who may be overly concerned with the opinions and judgements of others, or who may spend too much time offering opinions and judgements to others.  It is a stone of ‘right relationship’, assisting one in attaining and maintaining personal balance when in relationship with others or with the world in general.

Affirmation:  I speak and live my highest truth, and I call forth its manifestation in the world.
