So, if your malachite breaks, please do not continue using it and certainly do not try to grind or polish it as it will release malachite dust into the air which you will begin to inhale- which as we covered is bad.  Polished malachite and malachite jewelry however are safe to handle.   Onyx The medical industry recognizes onyx by the name copolymer. It is used to treat blood disorders, marrow ailments and tooth and foot problems. The spiritual benefits of black onyx include attracting abundance, enhancing intuition. It is said to guide people through dreams and visions. Black onyx is also a protector against negativity and ‘evil eye’, so you can use it for work environments to protect from jealousy co-workers, but why stop there, you can use it with family members (including extended family), because let’s be honest, every family has that person who can’t be happy for your successes.   Opalite Opalite is not really opal, it is man-made glass.

  • 15 Best crystals for beginners

    All objects have vibrations that can be scientifically measured. Crystals are no exception, and in this blog, I will briefly explain their effects on our body and spirit. I used to not believe in crystals; I honestly thought it was nonsense. But I had an unexpected and sudden experience that changed my perspective. I visited a crystal shop because, although I didn’t believe in the power of crystals at the time, they are undeniably beautiful. I saw a selenite wand that I couldn’t resist picking up, and as soon as I did, it had an immediate and physical effect on me. For a brief moment, I felt a bit dizzy and as though I was about to fall. I put the selenite down and walked away. A year later, I told a friend how stressed I was feeling. While I was talking, she calmly placed three black tourmalines in a triangle on the floor with me in the middle. After a minute, she replaced the tourmalines with selenite. After about five seconds, I felt a slight numbness in my head, and then... everything went quiet. I could still hear everything around me, but it was as if someone had removed all the background noise in my head. Until that moment, I didn’t realize there was noise in my head to begin with. I knew my mind was working at high speed every waking moment of my life, and it was something I had learned to live with, but this experience made the freeway in my head become a scenic drive—still fully aware and functional, just calmer and quieter. I cried. I had never experienced any mental stillness in my life—and I am over 40 years old.   What powers/benefits do these crystal possess? Crystals with higher vibrations can be considered a 'moving' force—like going to the kitchen to make a cup of tea. Crystals with lower vibrations can be considered a 'comforting' force—like drinking a warm cup of tea on a cold, rainy day. The 'moving' force lifts us up, bringing us to a more elevated state of mind and spirit, such as manifestation, communication, from sadness to joy, fear to confidence. The 'comforting' force can be healing, compassionate, calming, bringing mental peace, and releasing negativity. Both lower and higher vibration crystals are important because they help us engage with, manage, and enjoy life. Finding the 'most powerful' crystals for your needs is not a standard list that fits everyone but rather a tailored one, as each of us is unique on many levels. So how do you find your fit? Through testing and experiencing its effect on your body, mind, and spirit. The list is NOT in any particular order, because when it comes to crystals, the best is only according to what works for you.   1. Amethyst: The 'talented' stone. Amethyst has an extremely long list of benefits, which I won't be able to cover in this blog. It is a very powerful and high-vibration crystal. Everyone should have this amazing crystal; if you are new to buying crystals and stones, amethyst should be your first. Here are a few benefits that amethyst provides: It helps combat fear and guilt, invokes calm, reduces anxiety, encourages good dreams, and is a strong protector against fear and guilt. It instills peace, alleviates anxiety, and is a strong guide to the spiritual world. It is often used for the third eye or crown chakra.   2. Citrine: The 'optimistic' crystal. It is used to promote positive energy and optimism, thereby reducing negative energy. It is good for calming family tensions, fostering love and joy. It also protects against jealousy and negative emotions and helps heal broken hearts. It is second highest on the list of crystal vibrations.   3. Rose quarts: The love crystal. Rose quartz is believed to vibrate with unconditional love, making it a wonderful stone for healing emotional wounds and inspiring compassion. Therefore, it is a stone used to heal and improve relationships and encourage kindness towards others.   4. Clear quarts: The main crystal. As the name suggests, it supports mental clarity. It also helps with emotional stability and is used for meditation. This makes clear quartz the best choice for the crown chakra. You can use this clarity crystal for spiritual and physical purposes, for manifestation, or to combat motion sickness, headaches, dizziness, and vertigo. It is considered the most powerful crystal. 5. Selenite: The balancing crystal. There are many grounding crystals. Obsidian and black tourmaline are popular, but I have found that selenite works best for me. The benefits of selenite are: dispelling negative energy, creating calm and clarity, helping with physical balance, reducing fear and nightmares (my daughter places a selenite under her pillow when she is afraid to fall asleep.

It helps with self-awareness, self-confidence, and insight. It also invokes peace and harmony. The Sumerians believed that the stones contained the spirit of their gods. It is often associated with royalty and strength.   8. Turquoise: The communication stone. Turquoise is the oldest recorded gemstone used for adornment. Fragments of high-quality turquoise were discovered in ancient Egyptian graves. They were set in gold necklaces and rings and dated to 3000 BC. It has long been believed to aid in communication, both in the earthly and spiritual realms. It is therefore used for the throat chakra. It is also considered a powerful talisman to protect the bearer and assist in battle or hunting.   9. Malachite: The power stone. Malachite is a stone that invites wealth and prosperity into your life. It is also used for protection against evil and helps not only with healing from past traumas but represents a new life. The ancient Egyptians believed in a paradise called the "Field of Malachite" that awaited them after death. Important: Malachite can be toxic to humans if ingested, inhaled, or handled in its raw form. So if your malachite breaks, do not continue to use it and definitely do not attempt to grind or polish it, as this will release malachite dust into the air, which you will start to inhale—something we’ve covered as harmful. Polished malachite and malachite jewelry, however, are safe to handle.   10. Black tourmaline: The protection crystal. Black tourmaline is a powerful crystal that protects against negative energies and psychic attacks. It is often used as a grounding crystal and is said to have healing properties and provide emotional stability.   11. Maifan: The healing stone. This is a fascinating stone! It is non-toxic and can therefore be added to your drinking water. It contains 70 trace elements such as potassium, sodium, calcium, and manganese. It is used to improve blood circulation, pH balance, and acts as an anti-inflammatory and pain reliever. It is also used to boost the immune system, rejuvenate the body, and assist with detoxification.

The spiritual benefits of black onyx include attracting abundance and enhancing intuition. It is said to guide people through dreams and visions. Black onyx is also a protector against negativity and the 'evil eye,' so you can use it in work environments to protect against jealous colleagues. But why stop there? You can use it with family members (including extended family) because, let’s be honest, every family has that person who cannot be happy for your successes.   14. Tiger eye: Tiger's eye can be used as a grounding stone to protect against negative energies. It is also often used as a solar plexus, sacral, or root chakra stone.

  • What does '925' on silver jewelry really mean?

    Have you ever noticed the small "925" stamp on your jewelry and wondered what it means? If so, you are not alone. This seemingly cryptic code holds the key to understanding the composition and quality of your favorite accessories. Let’s uncover the secret behind "925" and explore its significance in the world of jewelry.   Understanding sterling silver   To understand the meaning of "925," we first need to delve into the world of sterling silver. Sterling silver is a popular metal alloy widely used in jewelry making due to its affordability, durability, and timeless appeal. It consists of 92.5% pure silver and 7.5% other metals, typically copper, which provides strength and stability to the alloy.   The origin of '925'   The term "925" originates from the silver content in sterling silver. In numerical terms, 92.5% corresponds to 0.925 when expressed as a decimal. Therefore, jewelry stamped with "925" indicates that it contains 92.5% pure silver, while the remaining 7.5% consists of other metals. This standard has been established to ensure consistency and quality in the production of sterling silver jewelry.   Verification of Purity For consumers, the presence of the "925" stamp serves as a guarantee of the silver content and quality of the jewelry piece. It indicates that the item meets the industry standard for sterling silver and has undergone rigorous testing to verify its purity. This stamp provides buyers with confidence that they are investing in genuine sterling silver jewelry of high quality and value. Interpretation and Recognition When shopping for jewelry, it's important to recognize and interpret the "925" stamp to make informed purchasing decisions. By understanding its meaning, you can distinguish between authentic sterling silver jewelry and imitations or lower-quality alternatives. Look for the "925" mark, often found on the inside of rings, clasps of necklaces or bracelets, or the back of earrings, to ensure that you are acquiring genuine sterling silver jewelry. Care of Sterling Silver Jewelry Although sterling silver is valued for its beauty and durability, it requires proper care and maintenance to preserve its shine and appearance. To keep your sterling silver jewelry looking its best, follow these simple tips: 1. Store your jewelry in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and moisture to prevent tarnishing. 2. Avoid exposing your jewelry to harsh chemicals, perfumes, or household cleaners, as they can damage the metal. 3. Clean your sterling silver jewelry regularly with a soft cloth or a jewelry polishing cloth to remove dirt and oils. 4. Use a mild soap and water solution for deeper cleaning, and gently scrub with a soft toothbrush if needed. 5. Consider professional cleaning and polishing for heavily tarnished or intricate jewelry to restore its shine. Conclusion The '925' inscription on jewelry serves as a hallmark of quality and authenticity, indicating that the piece is made of genuine sterling silver. By understanding the significance of this stamp, consumers can make informed decisions when purchasing jewelry and ensure they are investing in high-quality pieces that will stand the test of time. So next time you see "925" on your favorite jewelry, you’ll know it’s more than just a number—it's a symbol of craftsmanship, purity, and timeless beauty.
