Healing Properties of Amazonite

Amazonite is appreciated for its soothing properties.

Many believe that Amazonite has the power to soothe feelings of anxiety, boost your self-esteem, promote inner-strength, and increase feelings of overall well-being.

If you have found yourself feeling particularly stressed or lacking in self-esteem, you might consider giving Amazonite a try.

Amazonite is associated with:

Success
Sincerity
Fortune
Compassion
Integrity

These associations are what many believe Amazonite is capable of elevating. If you are focusing on a promotion at work, wanting to show more compassion to others, or simply living life more authentically, Amazonite is believed to be able to help.

Amazonite is also primarily aligned with the throat chakra. If you feel that you are struggling to express yourself, you might try using Amazonite to realign the throat chakra.

Cleansing Amazonite

When you receive your Amazonite element, you will want to cleanse it of any negative energy that might have accumulated through the shipping and handling process.

There are a few ways that you can go about doing this. You will also want to make sure that you cleanse your crystal after using it every once in a while. A good indication that your stone might need a cleansing is if it appears cloudy or if you feel that you have been around a lot of negative energy.

The first way you can cleanse Amazonite is to run it under a stream of natural water. If you do not have access to a source of natural water, bottled spring water or water from the tap will also work. You will want to ensure that your element is fully dry before you begin using it. You can repeat this process whenever you feel that your crystal needs a cleanse.

The second way you can cleanse Amazonite is with burning sage. You will need to run the crystal element through the smoke of the burning sage to get rid of any negative energy that might be charged in the crystal.

Amazonite Best Uses

The first step to using any element is to keep an open mind. Having skepticism or doubts about the abilities of your crystal can inhibit its ability to work for you.

After you’ve cleansed your element of any negative energy, you will want to set an intention for it. Setting a specific intention gives the element a specific use and focus for how it could empower you in your daily life.

Since Amazonite is associated with self-esteem, you might consider setting an intention that increases your confidence. If you are focused on reaching a goal you’ve set, getting promoted at work, or graduating college you could set an intention on any of those since the stone is associated with success.

After determining what your intention will be, hold the Amazonite in your hands and speak that intention into it. As you wear it keep that intention in mind and make choices that align with that intention.
