Malachite slabs

Malachite is a green copper carbonate mineral. It has an opaque transparency and sometimes has a patterned surface. Malachite is usually colored with rich shades of green and its meaning is transformation and positive change.

Green color gemstones always seem to have super intense powers and love connecting to the heart chakra. Malachite can be very powerful with its energetic properties as it does an amazing job in inspiring you to let go of old traumas and patterns, and to step outside your comfort zone. Malachite can help you flush out unwanted, toxic energies and give you more self-confidence and inner strength. Being a Stone of Transformation, it can also help give you the capacity to embrace change.

Malachite loves to be charged with the earth, so placing it in the garden or under a tree would be a great way to let it soak in Mother Nature. If you’d rather not dirty up your crystal, you can definitely use moonlight, smudges, or sunlight, though not for a significant amount of time as the sun may diminish it beautiful colors. While you can give Polished Malachite a quick rinse with water, raw Malachite can be toxic when inhaled or ingested or left in contact with the skin. (Polished Malachite is safe to wear.)
