Amazonite - The Gemstone of Courage
70Amazonite Gemstone
Amazonite is a semi-opaque beautiful deep blue-green stone, often with white streaks, belonging to the feldspar family. This gem is named after the Amazon River though it is quite surprising that no deposits of this stone were so far found there. Some say that they are named after the green Amazon forests and some say the name of this stone is derived from the Amazons, the legendary female warriors. What ever the case may be it is one of the most beneficial stones to wear or carry. This stone is also often referred to as Amazon stone. Amazonite gets its greenish color because of its copper content. This stone is often seen confused with Jade. Amazonite is the planetary stone representing Uranus and astrological gemstone of those born under the zodiac sign of Virgo. Apart from jewelry bowls, vases and other fancy items are made with this stone. This stone is primarily found in India. Other sources of this stone include the US, Australia, Canada, Russia, Brazil, Tanzania, Italy, Zimbabwe and Namibia.
Amazonite is a courage giving stone which helps to balance emotions. Wearing this gem helps to release anxiety, sadness and fear. This stone also inspires confidence, communication, truth, trust, sincerity and clairvoyance. This is a good stone for married couples and those suffering from emotional trauma. This stone gives a calming effect to the brain and nervous system and encourages analytical thinking. This stone is also known to absorb microwave, cell phone and computer emanations and protect against electromagnetic pollution. As a healing stone it works well on the heart, throat and third eye chakra. This stone is used to treat muscular spasms, metabolic deficiencies and blockages in nervous system. As with all gemstones, care should be taken to protect the stone against blows and scratches.
