What Does a Malachite Crystal Do?
Malachite crystals have four healing properties. It is believed that these healing properties can help you determine if you should be wearing Malachite crystal jewelry.
Healing Property 1: Growth
It is believed that Malachite crystals can help you identify internally and externally what might be hindering your growth as a person.
We all experience periods of stagnation that make us feel like we're in a slump. People have used Malachite crystals to push through a slump and set you back on your journey of growth.
Healing Property 2: Vitality
Vitality can be seen two different ways: feeling physically healthy and energetic, and feeling like our lives have meaning and purpose.
It is believed that if you wear Malachite crystal jewelry, you will feel more energetic and will feel connected to your greater purpose. Malachite crystals would be extremely powerful for someone who just got laid off or is looking to make a career jump to follow their true passions.
Healing Property 3: Transformation
Malachite is revered as a transformational crystal.
If you're getting ready to go through a period of transformation—like going off to college, moving to a new city, or starting a family—the energy from Malachite crystals might help make that transition run smoothly.
Healing Property 4: Confidence
Malachite is also associated with confidence. Malachite crystals are regarded as protectors—they are believed to give people strength to step out of their comfort zones and let go of things in their past that are weighing them down.
When you feel protected that way, you feel like you can conquer the world. That feeling uncovers confidence to be who you want to be and to ignore any negativity that might come your way because of it.
These healing properties can help you determine if you should start wearing Malachite crystal jewelry. If they resonated with how you're feeling and what you're looking for with crystal healing, it could be a sign that it's the right crystal for you.
Malachite Crystal Chakra
Malachite is also aligned with the heart chakra which controls our compassion and ability to love. If you've been feeling like you're closed off to accepting love, Malachite is believed to help realign the heart chakra, leaving you feeling a bit lighter and open to accepting people in your life.
What Signs Should Wear Malachite Crystal Jewelry?
Malachite crystals can be powerful for two zodiac signs: Scorpios and Capricorns. Many astrologers believe that Malachite crystals are a powerful tool that Scorpios can lean on to navigate their path in life.
Many believed that Malachite crystals are linked to Capricorns. For Capricorns, Malachite crystal jewelry would help a Capricorn embrace change and go through extreme transformation.
How Do You Charge Malachite Crystals?
When you practice crystal healing, you want to be using the best version of your crystal as possible. This means you don't want to be using a crystal that's riddled with negative energy. Especially in Malachite's case since it's known as a protector from negativity, you'll want to ensure you're cleansing your crystal when you first receive it—and every couple of months when you're wearing it.
During the journey from us to you, it's likely that your Malachite crystal jewelry will encounter negative energy. To ensure your crystal is operating at its full potential, try using one of the methods below to cleanse your Malachite:
- Use soapy water. Malachite crystals are water-safe so you can use water for cleansing. Get a soft, clean cloth and pour soap on it. Use the soapy cloth and warm water to wash your Malachite crystal. Rinse off all the soap and dry your crystal jewelry before you begin wearing it. To dry, you can either use a clean cloth or let it air dry.
- Bury it in soil. Soil is believed to absorb negative energy that a crystal is charged with. You can use soil in an outside garden or soil from an inside potted plant. Bury your Malachite crystal in the soil of your choice over night to let the soil absorb the negative energy. Rinse the soil off and completely dry it before you begin wearing your Malachite crystal jewelry.
- Charge it in the light. Malachite crystals respond to both sun and moonlight. If you decided to use the sun to charge your crystal with positive energy, take your Malachite crystal and put it either outside or inside at a spot that has access to the sun. Make sure you don't leave your crystal jewelry in the sun for more than an hour—direct sunlight exposure can alter the color of your crystal. If you decide to use the moon, leave your Malachite crystal in a spot that has access to the moon all night. The best time to do this is during a full moon when the moon's at its most powerful.
Cleansing is vital to getting the best experience from crystal healing that you can. Make sure you use one of the above methods every month or so to get rid of any negative energy that your crystal jewelry attracted during regular wear.
Begin Healing with Malachite Crystals
Now that you've appropriately prepped your Malachite crystal jewelry, it's time to start your healing practice. The first step to healing with any crystal is to completely open your mind to the potential effects it can have. If you have doubts or skepticisms, it can interrupt the full potential of your Malachite. Allow yourself to believe that you can experience the full effects of Malachite crystal healing.
After clearing your head, it's time to set an intention for how you'd like to use Malachite for healing. Remember the properties and associations that are listed above. It's also important to be specific with your intention. For a Malachite crystal, you might consider setting an intention to help you fully embrace the change of moving to a new city. Really think about what you want the results of healing to be.
Once you have your intention, hold the Malachite crystal jewelry in your hands and speak your intention into it. Repeat it a few times and memorize it. When you're wearing your Malachite fidget jewelry, remember what your intention was. Make choices throughout your day that align with that intention.
If you decide you want to change your intention after a while, that's okay! Use one of the cleansing methods to start with a fresh slate and repeat this process with your new intention.
