Malachite

Malachite in Lithotherapy

Malachite is one of the favorite stones of lithotherapists. It comes from the alteration of copper, from which it inherited the healing virtues: anti-inflammatory, anti-spasmodic, anti-bacterial, antiseptic but also revitalizing properties. Malachitis is commonly used in pain relief therapies.

Virtues and benefits of malachite stone.

Malachite is often called "healing stone" by lithotherapy specialists. Indeed, his energies would make it possible to reduce both physical and psychological pain.

It is advisable to affix malachite to the painful areas of the body to begin to perceive its effects and feel the pain weaken. This would be particularly effective for pain caused by hematomas and rheumatism, or felt in certain organs such as the stomach or intestines.

The protection of malachite on the psychic level makes it possible in particular to fight against nightmares and dark ideas.

Finally, on the emotional level, malachite helps us to understand the intentions of others with more lucidity, which allows us to avoid ill-intentioned people.

How to purify and recharge malachite stone?

Malachite is a particularly sensitive and fragile stone that must be handled, and therefore purified carefully. It can be purified in water (read the precautions below) or better, in incense smoke. As it is particularly absorbent, it quickly takes care of the energies of the people who handle it. This is why it needs to be purified and recharged more regularly than most other minerals. We therefore recommend purifying your malachite at least once a week.

Purification of malachite in water:

To purify your jewelry or stones rolled in malachite, you can for example immerse them for a few minutes in demineralized water (no tap water that is too mineralized!), then wipe them with a soft cloth.

Do not let malachite soak for too long in water because that would risk tarnishing it! Take good care to dry it completely after purification.

Purification of malachite by fumigation:

Another effective and recommended purification technique for malachite is fumigation: light an incense stick or a bouquet of white sage and purify the stone by passing it several times in the smoke. This method must be repeated more often than purification in water. But it has the advantage of not altering malachite, and therefore not changing its appearance over time.

After purifying it, to recharge the malachite with energy, expose it to sunlight for a few hours. Malachite can also recharge when placed on a cluster of rock crystal or amethyst.

These processes work equally well for jewelry as for rough or polished stones.

Malachite and astrology.

Malachite is especially recommended to natives of the signs of Capricorn, Scorpio, and Libra.

Malachite according to the Kundalini Yoga doctrine.

Malachitis acts particularly on the fourth chakra, called "heart chakra". It is the energy center of love and courage, and it plays an important role in the overall balance of our organism.
