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.
