Gemstones for Travel, Holidays, and Vacations
Often "the most wonderful time of the year," vacations, and travel are an important time of year. Recharging batteries for the diverse demands of everyday life, simply relaxing, pursuing hobbies, discovering new regions and countries, and simply trying out something new – the desires and demands for these few weeks are high.
Whether it's just a few kilometers away for a hike or a long-awaited trip to a distant, exotic destination, gemstones can be valuable companions both before and during the trip.
"Once a year, go somewhere you've never been before."
Dalai Lama

Sometimes it takes a bit of courage to decisively plunge into a (small) adventure – malachite can help with this, too.
Malachite promotes the desire for adventure and an intense life; it deepens the emotional life and supports imagination and decisiveness. It helps to become aware of things: desires, needs, and ideals become visible, but their implementation is up to each individual.
