EPIDOTE, aka Pistacite, is a stone of strong healing, metaphysical and physical properties. Its vibrations give off a sense of optimism and nourishes our physical-self. It offers protection from negativity during the development of inner awareness. Epidote is an attraction stone and can be programmed to bring one what they wish for. Beware, it has the ability to bring more of what is emanated. So, if one is negative it will attract more negativity. This is all part of making one “aware” of the concept “you reap what you sow”.

EPIDOTE has the ability to increase the energy of anything it touches, including the physical body, along with the energy of other stones. When worn, it strengthens the physical body, stimulates the immune system, increases personal power, cleans away repressed emotions, clears the emotional body (Aura), increases memory, and aids in any healing process. It is a great stone to use for physical recovery, emotional healing and for stimulation of the mind.

Epidote removes all ingrained resistance to bring about spiritual awakening.

EPIDOTE harmoniously expands and develops our abilities while we discover and learn to admit our weaknesses.This is an invaluable healing tool for any crystal therapist, as it coaches a person to initiate the healing process and look after oneself.

Cintamani (Saffordite)

There comes a time in one’s life when everything seems to meet a dead-end and nothing seems to work out. At such depressing times, you need something that not only helps you get back in track but also makes life pleasant and fulfilling. One such stone that is often considered to be sacred and is so rare that very few people have seen it is the Cintamani stone. Some believe that it is a mythical stone whose reference can be found in religious scriptures while others believe in its existence. Irrespective of what people believe the essence and magnitude of the stone cannot be diminished. The fact that references of Cintamani can be found in both Hindu and Buddhist literature points towards the fact that it is a gemstone that has been highly valued and respected.

The most common reference about Cintamani is that it is a gift to Earth from the skies. In fact, evidence proves that the Cintamani stone came from the Sirius star system some millions of years ago. It happened during a Galactic superwave when a planet that was orbiting Sirius A exploded and flew in all directions. Some of these fragments reached Earth after traveling through interstellar space. The stone is so rare that throughout history and mythology only a handful of people have been known to possess it. Great men, gods, and goddesses have adorned themselves with the Cintamani, elevating the mythical nature of the stone.

Many believe that everything related to Cintamani is an only legend and there is no concrete fact to prove the existence of the stone. However, descriptions of Cintamani show its similarity to other well-known gemstones such as moldavite. Cintamani is believed to be a green-colored stone that fell from the skies. Moldavite too is a similar-colored stone that was formed as a result of meteoric impacts. Since there wasn’t any understanding about meteors in ancient times, meteoric impacts were probably viewed as mystical events. This could be the case with Cintamani and its constant relation with mysticism.

• Cintāmaṇi (Sanskrit; Devanagari: चिन्तामणि): ‘Wish-Fulfilling Gem‘ (Tibetan: ཡིད་བཞིན་ནོརྦུ, Wylie: yid bzhin norbu)

• The mani (jewel) is translated in Chinese ruyi or ruyizhu 如意珠 “as one wishes jewel” or ruyibaozhu 如意寶珠 “as one wishes precious jewel“, and is pronounced in Japanese nyoi-hōju or nyoi-hōshu 如意宝珠.

History

In Buddhism the Chintamani is said to be one of four relics that came in a chest that fell from the sky (many terma fell from the sky in caskets) during the reign of king Lha Thothori Nyantsen of Tibet. 

Though the king did not understand the purpose of the objects, he kept them in a position of reverence. 

Several years later, two mysterious strangers appeared at the court of the king, explaining the four relics, which included the Buddha’s bowl (possibly a Singing Bowl) and a mani stone with the Om Mani Padme Hum mantra inscribed on it. 

These few objects were the bringers of the Dharma to Tibet.

The Digital Dictionary of Buddhism‘s ruyizhu entry says:

Said to be obtained from the dragon-king of the sea, or the head of the great fish, Makara, or the relics of a Buddha.

Tibetan Tektite, aka Tibetanites, possess a gentle, yet powerful energy. They were formed when a large meteorite hit the Earth. Finding one is known to bring one an enormous amount of luck. The energy of Tektite are very strong and can be felt by those that possess the ability of Clairsentience, or just highly sensitive to the energies of crystals. Placing a Tektite inside, or underneath, a pillowcase can deter negative entities. It is also said that this stone helps connect personal thoughts and energies with extraterrestrials from other planets

The energy of Tektite is able to increase energy and is known to strengthen the aura, raise one’s vibrations and clear energy blockage within the lower Chakras. This makes it a great stone for anyone seeking spiritual advancement. Tektite also has the advantage of increasing energy, which makes it great for charging other stones, or objects. However, it is Tektites direct connection to the Universe that grants it the ability to add power to any type of magic.

The more a person works with Tektite the stronger its abilities will become. Therefore, the strength of the connection between this stone, and the person, is determined by its time spent in that person’s energy field. The longer it resides there the stronger the connection will become. The benefits of allowing for a strong connection with this stone can be shown by its ability to increase psychic sensitivity, astral travel and lucid dreaming, along with the possibility of thinning the veil between dimensions. Meditating with Tektite is known to bring one to a higher state of consciousness beyond current limitations.

Tektite has this healing vibration that is helpful in increasing the vibrations of human beings. As it works on the clearing of the lower Chakras it can bridge a link that connects them with the higher Chakras, which will facilitate the free flow of energy throughout the subtle bodies. It also enhances and accelerates healing from illness and injuries. People suffering with depression can also benefit from the healing energy of Tektite.

Tibetan Tektite is suitable to assist those who are emotional, nervous, fearful, stressed and pressured.
