Woo Woo Guru says.....

This striking silicate can be found in Canada, Norway, Russia, USA, Scotland, and Kenya, and has a strong, calming energy that makes it a great stone for those who struggle with anxiety. So much of our anxiety is rooted in our past experiences, whether we feel they were traumatic or not. Certain life experiences can leave us feeling self-doubt or lacking in confidence in some ares of our present life. Aegirine's calming energy helps us to resolve those feelings by encouraging self-acceptance first before looking to our outer landscape and how we trust others.
Darker crystals inevitably resonate with the lower vibrations of our energy system, and Aegirine is no different in that respect. It has a healthy connection with the Root/Base Chakra, which connects our inner and outer world. These lower vibrations have a very protective feel to them and Aegirine is very effective against disruptive energies from mobile phones and other sources of electro-magnetic pollution. The connection with the Root/Base Chakra also helps us to create strong foundations within our Chakra system that will enable us to feel much more grounded and balanced as we begin the journey upward towards the Crown Chakra. It's also true that this strengthening is felt within the physical body, as well as the subtle body, boosting our energy levels and stamina.

There is so much more to Aegirine that you may believe, at first and as you become familiar with its energies you will discover its true capabilities in terms of self-healing as you see yourself interacting with the outer world in a much more confident way. Having a sense of your own power is extremely liberating, and you may very well wonder how you ever got along without it!

A true stone of self-discovery.
