FIND WAYS TO FORGIVE

FEATURED CRYSTAL

CHRYSOCOLLA

KEYWORDS

Absolution, compassion, grace

Forgiveness is essential if you are to live each moment rather than dwell in the past.

QUALITIES

This sustaining stone creates inner balance and encourages awareness of anything that may be pushing you off balance. It draws out negative emotions, such as guilt, and dissolves destructive emotional programming, replacing it with joy. Placed over your Heart chakra (see page 34), it heals heartache and increases your capacity to love and forgive. Over your Throat chakra (see page 35), Chrysocolla improves communication and helps you to speak your truth. But it also teaches the value of remaining silent when appropriate. This stone releases mental tension and facilitates keeping a cool head. Wearing gentle Chrysocolla enhances your personal power, inspires creativity and supplies motivation. It stabilizes relationships and induces tranquillity at home. Place a large chunk near the front door to ensure harmony. It helps you tolerate another person’s behaviour without enabling it or getting sucked into the drama.

WHAT THIS CRYSTAL BRINGS TO MINDFULNESS

Chrysocolla encourages self-awareness and inner balance. It is extremely helpful in accepting with serenity situations that constantly shift and which you cannot control. Helping you to stay focused in the moment, it invokes the inner strength to simply be with what is. Chrysocolla facilitates forgiving and forgetting, freeing your mind.

HOW TO USE THIS CRYSTAL

Place the crystal, or its photograph, over your Heart chakra for a few moments. Breathe in the energy deeply. Bring to mind someone to forgive or receive forgiveness from.
