We were lucky to come across a small batch of unusual polished freeforms with dioptase and chrysocolla from the Congo. Dioptase is known for its beautiful green-blue crystals and is a rare occurrence. The dioptase contrasts against the brilliant turquoise blues of the chrysocolla and the reds of the cuprite. Calcite often accompanies the formations in small quantities. Dioptase is strong in the heart and throat chakras, and the energy of the chrysocolla supports this energy perfectly. It breaks down long standing emotional issues to get them out of your system once and for all. It has a very soothing healing presence, and can calm the anxiety of dealing with conflicts and confrontations, allowing you to speak your mind and be heard. It helps you to break the emotional ties that produce self-limiting thoughts and actions. Red cuprite also accompanies this combination, bringing the healing energy into the physical body, supporting the throat, heart and lungs.

The freeform measures 1.6" x 1.5" x 0.9" and weighs 2.1 oz.

Dioptase can be used to both clear and simulate all of the chakras to the higher level of awareness and action, bringing an invigoration and a refreshing energy to the physical, emotional, and intellectual bodies. It is said to stimulate memory of past lives, urging one to deal with issues that occur time and time again, assisting one to progress in their cycle. It has very soothing healing energy.

The power of Chrysocolla, like a balance scale, can act to stimulate the mind and relax the emotions at the same time. It reacts upon your analytical and intuitive abilities. Together its energy influence alleviates emotional confusion while expanding your mind to new awareness and understanding. Chrysocolla opens bottled emotions that can block the mind from thinking clearly, and is a good choice for a stone when you have difficulty expressing your feelings.
