Good Morning!
Top 10 Crystals for Winter
Winter is the time for being introspective and meditative. Winter is our time to
rest and replenish. Because winter is a time of less light and colder
conditions, it can also be a difficult time for many people. Crystals can play a
part in brightening our nights, improving our outlook and encouraging us to look
within, peacefully. Here are my top 10 choices for Winter.
Angelite:
Properties: This stone is excellent at balancing, polarizing and aligning the
physical body with the Aura or ethereal network. It is very calming and its
shade of blue refreshes the eyes and spirit. This crystal helps us to be in
touch with angels and animal guides, as well as assisting in distant
communication with other humans. Most effective on the Throat Chakra, Angelite
helps in self expression, communication and allows us to speak our mind, helping
us to become more assertive. Its soothing effects on the Throat Chakra works
beautifully in calming and soothing anxiety or overactive children. Use this
stone to call your Angels for guidance and support. Angelite is often used for
psychic connection to oneness with the Universe, the angelic realm and for
spiritual guidance. Angelite is utilized for heightened sensory awareness, which
also makes it great for Astral travel. Angelite helps us to see paths to
surmount challenges. It dispels anger, renews connections with Universal
knowledge, and reduces the "upstream struggle" during new endeavors.
Azurite:
Properties: Referred to as the jewel of wisdom or Stone of Heaven. Azurite
symbolizes insight and discovery. It is said to increase psychic abilities.
Azurite activates the Brow and Throat Chakra for more assertive communication
and alertness. It allows for quite, deep access to the subconscious and as a
seeing stone offers access to other times, places and lives. Therefore, it is a
great stone to assist in astral travel. This great balancer helps those who talk
too much and allows for those who to be expressive when they have a tendency to
hold back. This opens our psychic intuition and gets us aquainted with our
innerselves. It is a stone that stimulates creativity, giving access to a
fountain of ideas, images and awareness of things around us. This is a wonderful

it tells the story of the wearer. A strength-giving stone. A good stone for
