Getting to Know My Howlite Better


When I started talking a lot lately about gemstones and their mystical properties after attending an Introduction to crystal energy for emotional wellbeing WORKSHOP by Julie Lomas I started gradually discovering the true beauty of these magnificent creatures, and to my surprise after being mocked by a number of people over going on and on about the little beauties; my brother approached me one day with a howlite in his hand> I as usual surfed all over Google to read whatsoever relates to it and found pretty much exactly what I've been looking for.

Mystical Properties:
Howlite is known for it's strong associations with self-awareness, creativity and improving ones emotional attitudes. It enhances character building, and a sense of decency; in encourages desirable personal attributes. Howlite aids in dispelling anger, resentfulness, selfishness and allows one to look inside for answers, aid in communicating the negative emotions with a clearer emotional expression, which will result in calmer confrontations.
It decreases the over critical mind, rudeness and offensive behavior, increasing subtly, decency and tact. It is also quite helpful for those who tend to procrastinate.
Meditating on a piece of howlite can assist one in journeying outside the body and gaining insight from ones past lives. Place upon the third eye, it opens memories of previous times and lifetimes.

And as I suffered bad knees recently what I found about its healing Properties came in extremely handy; as its said Howlite is predominantly a calming stone, it will aid in sleeping, calming the overactive mind, eases insomnia, dreaming, dream retention and stress relief. Physically it calms the whole body and releases muscle tension. It eliminate pain brought about by stress, and is said to aid in healing stress related injuries such as ulcers, heart problems and rashes.
It is helpful in balancing the calcium levels in the body as well as strengthening teeth and bones.
Along with my beloved Citrine; Howlite is quickly becoming my favorite.
