Mountains and Valleys

Stone of the Week: Larimar

Larimar is a light blue form of pectolite and was recently discovered (within the last twenty years) in the Dominican Republic. Larimar stimulates the heart (4^th) chakra as well as the throat (5^th), the third-eye (6^th) chakra, and the crown (7^th) chakra. Larimar is a very nurturing stone and lends its energy to help one feel cradled in love and protection while cleansing the aura and the body, helping energy to move through blocks with nurturing from the Universe. It also reminds us to nurture ourselves during times of low energy and illness. Larimar is known as a “stone for Earth healing” and emits energy of peace, healing and love.

Stonetalker Insights:

Our lives contain the pattern of mountains and valleys. Sometimes we are at the top of our game, or at the top of the mountain. We are high on life and everything seems to be going our way. We experience times of great creativity and activity. Then we experience times when we feel a little low, down in a low valley, perhaps even caught down in a gully. It’s a time when we might be experiencing fatigue, illness or physical exhaustion. Or perhaps we are experiencing a lull in our creativity, some mental fogginess or confusion about our lives. It is important to nurture ourselves during the times in the valley and hopefully avoid the gully.  When you fall into the gully, it is especially important to nurture yourself. Accept where you are in the moment. Give yourself permission to nurture yourself and allow others to also nurture you. Sometimes this can be difficult to do if we are generally the caretaker yet is essential to do in order to move through these times quickly. Call on the nurturing energy of Larimar to assist you in your self-care. Feel the love and protection of the Universe and those around you who have your best interest at heart. Know that it is all part of the journey.
