Septarian Stone


I stopped by the Rock Shop at lunch today and found a new stone (one I have never seen before) for my collection, which as it turns out has some properties I am seriously needing right now. I'm jazzed. It's too large to palm though, but I can hold it in both my hands. I'm keeping it at work, where I really need grounding, uplifting, and calming. It's a beautiful stone; the pic does not do it justice.


SEPTARIAN STONE AKA DRAGON STONE:

Zodiac Affinity...Septarian crystals have special affinities with the signs of Aries, Gemini, Cancer, Capricorn, and Pisces. It has a Projective Energy, its Planet is the Sun and its Element is Fire.Folklore...Septarian crystals have been used to communicate with Mother Earth. She then provides an unconscious knowing to the user to be prepared for things that are about to happen. It is also reported to be of good assistance in opening communication between members of a group allowing all to speak clearly and kindly.Some sources attribute the name Septarian to the Latin name, Septem, meaning seven, relating that the mud balls cracked with 7 points in every direction, thereby creating the beautiful design. Others to the Latin word "saeptum", which means a small wall or enclosure. I have to agree with the second translation. In counting edges in the crystals I have seen, the "7" points did not seem to be a consistent characteristic and the second translation seems to more accurately describe how they actually form.Spiritually...Septarians assist in stabilizing spiritual developments that may be moving too fast and could lead to excessive demands or a decrease in interest.Emotionally...Septarians are very calming, especially for inner restlessness. It seems to provide the feeling of feeling physically well in our own body.Mentally...Septarians provide flexibilty and tolerance. If our actions tend to be erratic, it assists in keeping our concentration focused to matters at hand.Application...I have found meditating while holding Septarian to provide a calm energy that feels very nurturing and brought feelings of joy and a spiritual uplift.Physically...Septarians assist in strengthening the immune system, provide relief for muscle spasms, and help us to become centered during periods of heavy stress or anger.Corresponding Chakra...1st Chakra - color of dark brown or black. Promotes the ability for an earth plane focus. Aids in completing one thing at a time before moving on to something else. Helps with procrastination by grounding scattered or diffused energy. Assists in moving us forward on our life path in a focused direction with certainty. Calms, grounds and centers.
