The gemstone helps the user release emotional trauma and negative experiences. During the Middle Ages, it was customary to wear Malachite engraved with a figure of the Sun, which would boost magickal power. In ancient Egypt the color green (wadj) was associated with death and the power of resurrection as well as new life and fertility. Ancient Egyptians called Malachite the “God stone”. They believed that the afterlife contained an eternal paradise, referred to as the “Field of Malachite”, which resembled their lives but with no pain or suffering. And they wore the gemstone as a talisman to detect danger, avoid death, and for protection from negative entities. It is believed that Malachite breaking is a warning sign of danger coming. Malachite has been historically worn for protection from lightning and contagious diseases, and for health, success, and constancy in the affections. It is a stone of fortune, attracting opportunities, money, prosperity, and abundance. It encourages the user to take risks and embrace change, as well as take responsibility for their own thoughts and actions. A 17th-century Spanish superstition held that having a child wear a nugget of Malachite would help them sleep, and keep evil spirits at bay. Marbodus of Rennes (archdeacon and schoolmaster at Angers, France, then Bishop of Rennes in Brittany) recommended Malachite as a talisman for young people because of its protective qualities and its ability to help with sleep. Description:  Malachite  is an opaque, green-banded mineral.  The gemstone’s name is derived from the Greek malochites lithos, meaning “mallow-green stone”. It was given its name due to its resemblance to the leaves of the mallow plant. Copper gives Malachite its green color. Malachite was mined from deposits near the Isthmus of Suez and the Sinai as early as 4000 BCE. It was extensively mined at the Great Orme Mines in Britain 3,800 years ago, using stone and bone tools. Archaeological evidence indicates that mining activity ended around 600 BCE, with up to 1,760 tons of copper being produced from the mined Malachite. Archaeological evidence indicates that the mineral bas been mined and smelted to obtain copper at Timna Valley in Israel for more than 3,000 years. Since then, Malachite has been used as both an ornamental stone and as a gemstone. Large quantities of Malachite have been mined in the Urals, Russia. Ural Malachite is not mined at present. It is found worldwide including in the Democratic Republic of the Congo; Gabon; Zambia; Tsumeb, Namibia; Mexico; Broken Hill, New South Wales; Burra, South Australia; Lyon, France; Timna Valley, Israel; and the Southwestern United States, most notably in Arizona. CLEANSING AND CHARGING Be sure to cleanse your Malachite when received, and charge with your own energy and intentions. Use your feather fan to waft over it the smoke of purifying incense. Use sound vibrations from a singing bowl, bells, or tingsha chimes while quickly and carefully passing through the flame of a Green or Black candle. Place in a (preferably Selenite or Clear Quartz, just not any kind of metal) bowl on top of a bed of dead sea salt and leave soaking in the moonlight for at least four hours. Remove from the bowl, rinse for 30 seconds in (ideally natural, like a stream or in the rain) running water, then gently dry with a cloth (BE CAREFUL with stones that may easily scratch). Hold in your left hand (if wearing for receiving intentions) or right hand (if wearing for emitting intentions) and meditate your intentions and energy onto the stones for half an hour. Alternatively, cleanse by smudging then holding under running water (or leaving out in rainwater) for at least 30 seconds, dry, and gently place in a bed of sea salt on a windowsill after sunset for a few hours. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals and cleaning products. Because your gemstones can absorb negative energy, avoid allowing others to touch or handle them and be sure to cleanse regularly. Recharge as needed by placing in the sunlight or moonlight for a few hours, or by burying in the earth for a day or two. Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals and cleaning products. Do not use heat or steam to clean. Avoid prolonged exposure to water or sunlight. Avoid contact with hard surfaces, and take care not to subject to hard bumps or sharp blows.   Sources: https://spiritartsandherbs.com/sources **IMPORTANT INFORMATON: Products are sold as curio items for entertainment purposes only and based upon historical and magical uses.  We do not imply or guarantee that any items provide specific abilities, powers, outcomes, remedies, or treatments.
