Amazonite properties

It links the heart and throat: feel, then express without betraying yourself.

History & origin

Named after the Amazon river (where, ironically, it has never been mined), it already adorned jewellery and amulets in ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia.

Who it's for

For soothing an emotional overflow, or saying things calmly and truthfully.

Using it day to day

Hold it before a tense talk, keep it in a pocket on edgy days, or set it nearby to work in calm. What matters isn't the stone itself, but the attention it invites you to bring to yourself: a crystal is an intention you hold in your hand.

Cleansing & recharging

Cleanse it under running water for a few minutes or with smoke (sage, palo santo), then recharge it overnight under the full moon or on a quartz cluster.
