Pronounced Mal-a-kyte
Malachite is a green stone that when cut and polished often has a marbleized pattern. It’s name derives from the Greek ‘Moloche’, meaning ‘mallow’, based on the gems green colour.
Scientific information: The elemental recipe for Malachite is Cu2CO3(OH)2. The colour of malachite stretched from a deep emerald green to a pale almost mint green. It leaves a light green streak, and has a hardness of 3.5-4.
Found; Fine malachite has come from copper mines in California, Nevada, Utah, Pennsylvania, and Tennessee, but a few other places as well. I recommend doing research on your own, and ask those around you who may know.
Legend of malachite; It is said that if malachite is worn, it will break into pieces to warn the wearer of danger.
Properties in magic: Best for directing power toward your goals. Malachite is a protective stone, especially for children, and for those playing the merchant game. Wearing malachite during business meetings increased your ability to gain good deals and sales.
One trick; Small bits of malachite kept in each corner of a shop, or stored in the cash register will draw customers.
In Healing: Malachite can be associated best with Solar Plexus to clear static or repressed emotions. Use Aventurine to soothe. It also purified the digestive system, balances blood sugar and balances bile levels. It can aid in the functions of the pancreas and spleen, reduces stress and tension and aids in tissue regeneration. It strengthens the heart, circulatory system, pineal and pituitary glands. It’s also good for sleep in revitalizing the body and mind.
Warning; malachite can be very power and often needs a more gentle stone, such as rose quartz, to balance out its intensity.
