My 10 Favorite Stones for Protection – Part 1

People ask me about protection all the time, so I decided to share my top 10 faves with you.

  1. Black Obsidian

Black Obsidian puts a protective shield around the person wearing or working with it. This shield protects from negativity, both within and without.  It offers protection against heavy or unhealthy energies coming from your environment or relations. This stone is excellent for Empaths as it offers strong protection from emotional attacks.

The inner protection is most cool! Black Obsidian assists the wearer with releasing disharmony, resentment, fear and anger. In a sense, it helps to shield us, from ourselves, our negative, heavy, habitual thoughts and feelings. Once black obsidian helps us see clearly, we can begin healing and releasing those limited aspects of our selves.

Black Obsidian is very grounding and is an excellent stone to assist with holding an intention or bringing dreams into form. And as an extra bonus, it enhances psychic gifts.

2. Lapis Lazuli

Lapis Lazuli has been used for centuries by many cultures for it’s mystical properties, one of which is protection. It offers protection during times of spiritual “work”, such as meditation, journey-ing, channeling and connecting to higher realms. When connecting to higher realms or celestial beings, Lapis Lazuli offers a psychic protection. And acts as an anchor to the physical realms during journeys out of body.

As a bonus, Lapis Lazuli clears and activates the Throat and 3rd Eye chakras. It is a stone of communication that brings truthfulness, openness and clarity.

Lapis is also an excellent stone to use when working to manifest something in your life.

3. Labradorite

Labradorite is very protective. It is especially helpful during times of change and growth as it fosters that growth while assisting with clearing and balancing during times of transformation. By helping us to identify subconscious issues and providing illumination, labradorite helps us to move forward on the spiritual path.

Labradorite invites in Light from inter-dimensional higher realms and shields us from energies that are not in alignment with energies of Higher Consciousness. It also increases Intuition, psychic development and wisdom.

Labradorite calls in the Blue, Green and Yellow Healing Rays to encourage mental, emotional and spiritual healing.

4. Amethyst

Amethyst is a powerful protective and cleansing stone. It dispels fear and anger and promotes emotional centering. Amethyst is an excellent stone for anyone struggling with an addiction of any type. It carries a calming peaceful energy.

Amethyst is also a great stone for enhancing spiritual awareness. Opens one up for deeper love, forgiveness and higher consciousness. Balances and connects physical, mental and emotional bodies linking them to the spiritual.

 

5. Fluorite

Fluorite is psychically and physically protective, it is said to become more protective the longer it is used. Fluorite encourages and sustains health, intellect and emotional well-being by purifying, restructuring, or eliminating anything within the physical or subtle bodies that is not in perfect order.

Fluorite grounds and integrates spiritual energies and quickens spiritual awakenings. Promotes spiritual and psychic wholeness.

It helps with meditation and learning to get past the “chatter” of the mind. A great stone for calming anxiety and stress.
