Use of Shattuckite in gemstone healing

As a fairly newly discovered mineral, Shattuckite has only gained attention in recent years. Due to its colorful, interesting veining, Shattuckite is often cut as a cabochon and made into jewelry.

Shattuckite conveys freshness and promotes flexibility; the mineral also makes it easier to make new contacts. The ability to express oneself is strengthened so that misunderstandings can be avoided or cleared up. The blue-green gemstone makes it possible to be more tolerant and generous in dealing with others and to grant more freedom. Ballast and worries can be released with the support of the stone so that new projects can be tackled with greater strength.
