Dalmatian Stone Spiritual Properties: Stone of Enjoyment & Play

Shannon Marie

Dalmatian Stone – (Root & Sacral Chakra) – (Zodiac of Gemini & Virgo)

Dalmatian Stone is a gemstone I have been working with for years and have it as an integral part of my Crystal Healing toolkit. This is a stone with unique qualities that are vital when dealing with current professional pressures and expectations. Remember that “all work and no play” can leave us feeling unfulfilled and hollow. Find out the Dalmatian Stone spiritual properties and how you can benefit from their supportive and healing blessings!

Science of Dalmatian Stone

Dalmatian Stone is most commonly called Dalmatian Jasper, but it is not a Jasper at all! This rock is a mixture of Feldspar (light parts) and Arfvedsonite (black parts). At Mohs 6, it is also softer than Jasper (Mohs 7). This stone is readily available and very affordable. It is often sold in a variety of colors, but just know (because of its softer and more porous nature) that all those various colors are DYED. There are no natural blue, pink or green Dalmatian stones.

Historical Significance of Dalmatian Stone

Dalmatian Stone was discovered in Chihuahua, Mexico, and derived its name because the miners thought it resembled the spots on a Dalmatian dog. It has historically been used as a protection stone in necklaces, talisman and amulets.

Dalmation Stone Spiritual Properties

Metaphysical Attributes of Dalmatian Stone

Dalmatian Stone’s unique spiritual attribute is its ability to help us tap into our Inner Child and find time to Play! There are so many pressures on adults and often we drown in work, social and parenting responsibilities which leave us feeling tired and worn at the end of the day. Of course those responsibilities are important, but we must have time to recharge and recuperate. Dalmatian Stone help us find time to tap into the pleasures and fun in life. It encourages spontaneity and whimsy. This is an excellent stone to connect with your children and have time enjoying the world and playing together.

It is those same adult pressures that can leave us pondering, “What is the point of life anyway?” The Dalmatian Stone spiritual properties help us tap into what it truly means to be a human and why we have incarnated in this life. It helps us see past daily chores, bills, commutes to work, and grocery shopping to realize the wonder of experiencing human life. It allows us to take time to “smell the roses”, enjoy that cup of coffee in the morning, take a deep breath during a walk outside, and appreciate the present moment. Dalmatian Stone reminds us that connection, love, compassion, and gratitude will help us actualize the purpose of life.

Dalmatian Stone is also a very protective stone. The dark spots stimulate the protection qualities of the Root Chakra and its connection to Earth energy and support. It is especially protective of children. It helps them feel safe during difficult times, while facing fears, wards off nightmares, and helps them handle change. If your child is in need of some extra security during a challenging time, have them carry or wear Dalmatian Stone. It will also protect adults who are in therapy working through childhood issues and traumas. This stone allows adults to feel secure while exploring Inner Child energies.

Tektite Spiritual Properties: Stone of Universal Information

Shannon Marie

Tektite – (Root Chakra) – (Zodiac of Aries & Cancer)

Tektite is an fascinating glass formation that results from meteor impacts and is has an amazing energy when held. I learned about Tektites just after I discovered Moldavite and was doing research on its creation and benefits. This is a crystal I find extremely expansive, so I only use it for short periods of time. It is unlike any other gemstone I have worked with and I highly recommend that you meditate with some. Find out the Tektite spiritual properties and how you can benefit from their supportive and healing blessings!

The Science of Tektite

A tektite is formed when a meteor strikes the Earth and melts with the elements at the location. Each location’s tektite is unique due to the minerals and plant matter that was in the Earth at the time of the impact. Most Tektites are black or dark brown in appearance, but there are green (Moldative) and golden (Libyan) varieties as well. Rough Tektite is distinctive in appearance as it is mottled and contains internal bubbles. Tektite is general is readily available and affordable (except for Moldavite and Libyan tektites).

Tektite Spiritual Properties

Metaphysical Attributes of Tektite

To reiterate, a tektite is formed when a meteor strikes the Earth and melts with the elements at the location.  This is an important element that frames how Tektite affects us. The original meteor sped for who-knows-how-many light years across a wide swath of the Universe. It has connected with the energies as environments throughout space and has collected alot of Universal minerals, vibrations, and information. So each piece contains elements from deep space and is connected with the breadth of the knowledge of the Universe. Tektite then helps us channel all of that information!  It also helps us to gather and process all of the knowledge gathered during this lifetime and to retain only those experiences that will help us fulfill our personal destiny. Tektite helps us utilize the information we have accumulated and use it in daily life without effort.

Tektite is an incredibly high vibrational and uplifting crystal. It has a dramatic effect on our aura, vibration and state-of-mind when we hold it. It enables extremely expansive and open meditation during which we can download Higher Wisdom. The Tektite spiritual properties activate alignment with multi-dimensional beings and energies. It enables astral travel during meditation and sleep. However, be cautious, this gem should be used for limited time periods due to its extremely high vibrational and expansive effects. It is also good to have a grounding stone with you, such as Black Tourmaline, if you start to feel overwhelmed.

Moldavite is a gemstone that helps us understand the reason for our current human incarnation. It has “touched” the expanse of the Universe and it will help us determine our “place” in this existence. If you have been feeling adrift, lost, or just wandering in life without direction or purpose, sit with Tektite to help you realize your interests, passions, and your Soul Mission.

Finally, Tektite helps you transcend the concept of time and allows for past and future exploration. The Tektite spiritual properties can help you with past life work as you can easily access past life memories, contracts, and lingering attachments while meditating with Tektite. This gem also helps you envision all of your possible options, and discern how each one will result, allowing you to make choices about your future.

It brightens your entire aura and expands your Soul beyond your physical body. Repeat this mantra, “I am Open. I am no longer Limited. I am Ready to Receive an Abundance of Universal Wisdom.”

Onyx Spiritual Properties: Stone of Attunement

Shannon Marie

Onyx – (Root Chakra) – (Zodiac of Leo)

Onyx is such a strong and powerful stone, yet it is supportive and comforting at the same time. This is one stone I am attracted to when I just feel “off” and don’t know what I need to get back on track. I highly recommend having some Onyx on hand for those times that feel scary, or you just feel adrift. Find out the Onyx spiritual properties and how you can benefit from their supportive and healing blessings!

The Science of Onyx

Onyx is part of the Chalcedony family and is best known for its deep, solid black varieties. However, Onyx can also be found as a black and white banded variety (sometimes called Sardonyx). Onyx is very much like Carnelian (also a member of the Chalcedony family) because it comes in solid orange and also banded varieties. I have tumbled Onyx that has multi-colored banding, so there is a great variation in Onyx above and beyond the solid black stones.

Historical Significance of Onyx

The name is derived from the Latin word (also onyx) meaning “claw” or “fingernail.” Onyx has been widely used throughout history to make tools, bowls, and carved jewelry. The Egyptians, Ancient Greek and Romans all used Onyx because of its strength and beauty. Ancient Romans carved amulets with the image of Mars, the God of War, for soliers to wear into battle. Onyx is also one of the gemstones mentioned as a Holy Stone in the Bible.

Onyx Spiritual Properties

Metaphysical Attributes of Onyx

Onyx is used to absorb what we need from the Universe. It is used to cleanse and sharpen the intuition, so we can better receive this Higher Guidance. If you are having difficulties determining your next step, how to solve a problem, or what you need to feel better – sit with Onyx, release any urges to “figure it out,” and allow Onyx to bring what you need to mind. Carrying Onyx will help to amplify and multiply the external signs from the Universe providing you with guidance. Make sure to journal and record what you observe while carrying Onyx, so you can recognize the advice from the Universe, Spirit Guides, or Angel Guides. You may find yourself noticing even more Angel Numbers, animal signs, colors, song messages or synchronicities – write them all down and you will receive what you need in life.

The Onyx spiritual properties support us during mourning and times of deep emotional stress. It helps reduce overwhelming fears and anxieties. Onyx helps us to feel more rooted and stable as it is an extremely grounding stone. We can sit firm in the present moment and release worries of the past or worries of the future. If life is scary and overwhelming at the moment, sit with Onyx for deep comfort.

This stone holds a memory of what has happened to the wearer which helps with past-life work. Onyx works very well with psychometry as it holds the energy and memories of those who have worn it. If you inherit Onyx jewelry, or buy it from and antique store, you will want to cleanse it thoroughly if you are sensitive to picking up external energies. As this stone enables access to the past, it is an excellent tool for helping us discover the life lessons in past situations.

Additionally, Onyx spiritual properties help to focus other gemstones energies, so combining Oynx with other crystals for energy work is extremely useful. If you want an extra boost of a particular gemstone’s benefits – hold a piece of Onyx in the same hand as the other stone for a super charged energy experience.

Physical Healing Benefits of Onyx

The physical healing benefits of Onyx are said to be improved healing due to Onyx’s ability to absorb what we need to bring us back to a normal healthy state. Onyx is also said to help relieve issue dealing with the feet as it is deeply connected with the foot chakras.

Onyx Mantra Practice

Sit in a seated meditation position, holding the Onyx in your less dominant hand to receive its energy.  Really feel the support of the cushion or floor beneath you. You are grounded and supported by the Earth’s energies. Imagine you are seated on a Giant Piece of Onyx that is providing stability and support. Then a bright light opens at your Crown and is ready to receive Divine Guidance. Repeat this mantra, “I am Not Afraid. I am Safe. I am ready to Receive the Guidance and Support from my Higher Guides.”

Apache Tears Spiritual Properties: Stone of Recovery

Shannon Marie

Apache Tears – (Root Chakra) – (Zodiac of Aries)

Apache Tears are another gemstone that I grew up with while rock hunting in Oregon. These small, beautiful stones are in the Obsidian family. This stone has always felt so soothing and gentle to me and now that I have learned so much more about gemstones – now I know why. Find out the Apache Tears spiritual properties and how you can benefit from their supportive and healing blessings!

Science of Apache Tears

Apache Tears are really just Obsidian that has formed in a different way. When the force of the lava splashes the lava into the air it cools instantly in little round pebbles. Apache Tears are much smaller and more translucent that large chunks of Obsidian.

Historical Significance of Apache Tears

The origin of the name for Apache Tears is fairly well known. In 1870s, U.S. Cavalry attacked a tribe of Apache Indians in Surprise, AZ. At least 50 tribe members died right away and another 25 fought til their deaths. It is said the remaining wives and children of the fallen tribesmen wept and wept, and those tears turned into black jewels as they struck the ground.

Apache Tear Spiritual Properties

Metaphysical Attributes of Apache Tears

The most powerful of the Apache Tears spiritual properties is support during the grieving period. The original legend says that Apache Tears help to relieve the pain of grief, because the Apache families had already grieved and cried so hard that it takes away some of our pain by holding the stones. If you are suffering from the loss of someone close and it feels overwhelming, keep Apache Tears with you. They create a safe and secure energy field in which we can process and heal without getting overcome by such strong emotions.

Apache Tears are a softer, gentler form of Obsidian. It is extremely useful if you are working through really deep traumas and need to take it slowly. Like Obsidian, Apache Tears are an excellent grounding stone connecting the energy of the Heart to the Earth. It is a strong protection stone, protecting one from physical and emotional harm, as well as negative energies. However, it works slowly and steadily. Obsidian can feel rather sudden and abrupt, and sometimes that is necessary when we need quick assistance. But Apache Tears ease us into a state of security and safety.

Apache Tears also help to facilitate forgiveness and letting go of the past. Anger and bitterness from the past can trap us in a cycle of suffering, but Apache Tear help us recognize the cycle and break out if it.

You are grounded and supported by the Earth’s energies. Imagine yourself surrounded by a large, sturdy mountain. You are warmed by the heat within the mountain. Repeat this mantra, “I am Grounded. I am Protected. I have the Strength to uproot and eliminate that which is Negative in my Life.” Alternately, hold a Obsidian mala and chant this mantra 108 times.
