Malachite is a carbonate hydroxide mineral and its green banded colour is due to the copper content. Individual crystals are rare as it forms mostly in botryoidal, fibrous, or stalagmitic masses.
Malachite is very often carved into ornaments or statues. Only use malachite in its polished form as the high copper content makes it toxic.
Malachite absorbs negative energy and pollutants from the environment and body. It can guard against radiation and electromagnetic pollution. It is said that Malachite can be support during air travel.
Malachite has been called the midwife stone and helps with easing labour, regulating the menstrual cycle and easing menstrual cramps. Malachite also helps with rheumatic or arthritic pain as well as muscle cramps, inflammation of joints and healing of fractures. It is said to help strengthen memory, especially short term memory loss.
Malachite aids in building self-confidence and emotional clarity. It shows what is blocking your spiritual growth, draws out deep feelings and then allows you to break outworn patterns. It alleviates shyness when expressing emotion and encourages taking responsibility for one's own thoughts and actions. It supports friendships and empathy for other people.

My experience of living with Malachite;
The malachite has helped me with emotional clarity this week. I met a lady who is going through the same life experiences that I went through about 5 years ago. It made me reflect on how I was back then and how far I have come. I realise that I have overcome so much since then and it makes me even more determined to want to help others who are in a similar situation. I feel honoured to be in the position I am, to be able to offer this help.
I was also pleased that this was the week when I got to carry Malachite as I needed it for the relief of cramps..… I love how the universe brings the right thing at the right time!
