Crystal Details: Amazonite, also known as Amazonstone, is a variety of the potassium feldspar. A green to blue-green variety of K-feldspar, usually microcline, but sometimes applied to orthoclase. Named in 1847 by Johann Friedrich August Breithaupt for an unspecified type locality area "near" the Amazon River, although there are no known occurrences near that river.

Chemical Composition: KAlSi₃O₈

Hardness: On Mohs scale of mineral hardness - grade 6-6.5 (1 being softest, 10 being hardest)

Colour: Waxy appearance, bluish green to green and the colours can be pale, pastel or vivid. The colour is often interrupted by streaks and inclusions of white quartz or feldspar. The colour is thought to be caused by trace amounts of lead.

Uses: Crystals are a gift of nature that have been cherished and appreciated by humankind for for millennia. There are countless ways we can incorporate crystals into our daily lives. Placed around the home, worn as jewellery or simply held in the hand they remind us of our relationship with nature and Mother Earth.

It is known that crystals, due to their atomic makeup, hold heat and focus light energy, the often used example is quartz crystals being used in watches to generate an electric charge. Beyond this, it is said that crystals and gemstones have different energies that can be used to enhance your own energetic vibrations. Each gemstone is known for its unique 'energetic' properties.

Properties: Communication – Truth – Love – Grief

Known as the ‘Stone of Courage’ and the ‘Stone of Truth’. Amazonite empowers one to search the self and discover one’s own truths. To move beyond fear of judgment or confrontation with others. It encourages freedom and courage to express one’s thoughts and feelings and to set clear boundaries; internally for self-discipline, and externally for defining personal space. Releases grief and emotion, bringing balance and encouraging expression of past trauma that may have been held for some time.

Tip: A crystal for musicians and writers

Historical Uses/Folklore: Amazonite has been used as a gem for over 2000 years. It has been found in archaeological excavations of ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia.

Chakra: Heart (Anahata) and Throat (Vishudha)
