~*Chrysocolla*~
~*In antiquity chrysocolla, a copper mineral, was recognized as a stone of hope by people all over the world*~
I have a lovely green chrysocolla pendant which i love to wear often. Having it in direct contact with my skin gives me such a soothing calming feeling.
This lovely gem ranges in color from turquoise blue to green.
This gem can be placed on the forehead to help reduce fever. It can also prevent the formation of blisters on minor burns by being placed right on the burn.
It is recommended that small children wear a chrysocolla pendant directly on the skin to encourage good bone formation and growth.
~Chrysocolla also calms over-excited nerve.~ (very helpful) It has positive psychological properties. It lowers stress and tension while reducing anger and hatred.
Andes Opal

This gem ranges in color from pink, blue, green, brown, and white.
The blue-greens of this gem help reduce the allergic reactions of the tissue. It also helps respiratory organs and is therefore suited for the treatment of respiratory problems.
All Opals are very helpful for calming nerves during examinations, and removing mental blocks and also for strengthening the memory.
Sadly i don't have any Opal yet, but i hope to get some soon. I want some pink and green ones. They are so lovely and a white one would also be nice to have.

~*Calcite*~
Calcite is a stone that is recently new to my collection of gems. It is a lovely color and has a calming energy when held.
Calcite can range in a variety of colors from yellow, orange, pink, brown, green and blue, it is frequently translucent.
Calcite would be helpful to keep in children's rooms or in a baby's nursery. This is because it symbolizes mental growth, and promotes development, especially in children. Calcite also aids in healthy bone development and healthy bones in general.

Amethyst is one of my personal favorite and i find it very helpful to have with me and in contact with me. It gives such a wonderful energy that i think everyone should feel for themselves at least once.
