The name ‘Azurite’ from the Persian word for blue stone.
What is Azurite:
Azurites is a rough stone, often shaped like lumps of small particles, and is characterized by a moist, deep indigo color. Some Azurites are crystallized by azurite alone, but most are produced by mixing with green malachite (peacock stone) in a mottled pattern.
Azurite can range from bluish to purplish. It is said that it has a strong healing power, especially because of its clean and beautiful color, which suggests that it relieves stress on cells. Therefore, it is said that a nervous person can relax naturally and is a good amulet for nurturing the emotions of babies who cry at night and children who are restless and overly victorious.
Benefits of Wearing Azurite:
Azurite is used to obtain the following benifits:
- Intuition,
- precognition dreams,
- learning ability improvement,
- emotional development,
- stress relief
Healing effects of Azurite:
It is said that the vibration of the head is clearly adjusted in response to the chakra from the eyebrows to the top of the head.
It has long been used to heal cataracts and gallbladder, and is said to reduce the symptoms of epilepsy and relieve fatigue.
However, these effects and benefits have not been proven in modern medicine.
Magical effects of Azurite:
Azurite is said to work on the subconscious mind of human beings and shake the wisdom and abilities of sleeping. For that reason, it has been sacred in ancient Egypt, Greece, Maya, etc., and has been treated as a stone of prayer and prophecy.
If you put this stone under your pillow and sleep, you may have a dream of precognition. The sleeping prophet Edgar Cayce even called it a “speaking stone,” so it might give you a hint when dealing with something important or when gambling.
Azurite is said to respond well to the glabellar chakra. Bring it to the top of your head or between your eyebrows and feel the vibration. Isn’t my head refreshed?
It also enhances intuition and insight, so it’s perfect for studying or when you want inspiration at work. For those who are always indecisive and unable to make clear decisions, it is said to bring proper judgment.
How to Cleanse the energy of Azurite:
Purification with water is not possible. Sunbathing can cause fading after prolonged periods of time, and crude salt purification can damage the crystals.
The most recommended purification method is to burn the leaves of white sage and let the smoke lightly pass through the stones.
