Malachite crystal healing properties
ABOUT MALACHITE HEALING CRYSTALSMalachite crystal has an incredibly rich green color, and is usually marked with gorgeous flowing lines and circles. The color connects the stone to the element of earth. The earth element is about balance, centering, stability; and caring for, as well as healing of the physical body. Due to this connection malachite is beneficial as a tool to promote healing in a variety of areas, as are many things within nature.
MALACHITE PROPERTIES
Malachite crystal has the ability to absorb negative energy and pollutants from within the body. For physical healing this stone is especially helpful for women, helping to ease cramps and regulate the menstrual cycle. In the past it has been referred to as the 'midwife stone'; and has been used to facilitate labor and ease pain during the delivery process.
Malachite's healing properties will aid you in combating the effects of osteoarthritis and spinal degeneration, as well as in the healing of bone fractures. Malachite can stimulate the liver, causing the body to more efficiently release toxins. This quality is good for healing work targeted at tumors, and even possibly with cancer.

MALACHITE AND EMOTIONS
Malachite is often used in emotional healing, especially with those who have suffered through mental/emotional abuse. It can prove to be a great asset within healing work targeting individuals who lived through emotional trauma as children. The mineral malachite can help a person to overcome any fear they may suffer from; and can help them to overcome problematic shyness. Malachite can help you to heal and move forth from most emotional issues.
The flowing patterns and rings on polished malachite's surface allow it to encourage change. It will bring the wearer to see and acknowledge all obstacles which are stunting them on a spiritual level. Malachite encourages emotional expression, and will encourage us to feel an appropriate degree of empathy. It will also aid those battling with depression and anxiety.
MALACHITE'S CONNECTION TO THE HEART CHAKRA
The mineral malachite's green color connects it to the heart chakra, which regulates a person's reaction to the outside world. When the heart chakra is balanced, we can embrace being our true selves, with a greater understanding of our personal needs and emotions. We can too be more open to accepting change as it comes into our lives.
Malachite also helps to clear other chakras, and is thought to be able to bring psychic visions when placed on the third eye chakra center. Because malachite possesses the ability to draw out negative energies, it enables positive energies to come in to replace them. For this reason it's best to cleanse your malachite crystal after each use.
If you are suffering from illness involving the bones, female sexual organs, or mental and emotional issues, malachite stone is a recommended tool for drawing out negative energies and toxins, which are the underlying cause to these conditions. Another useful quality which malachite has is to cleanse the body of uric acid; and for this reason is beneficial in healing gout.
MALACHITE TOXICITY
In its unpolished form malachite can be dangerous; this due to its copper sulphate content. For this reason the stone should only be used after it has been tumbled/polished. When using malachite always wash your hands afterwards.
It isn't recommended to use this stone for elixirs. That said, in making healing waters some use it in the regular way (immersion), based upon the assumption that a polished malachite stone has been safely stabilized. That's having an awful lot of faith in an assumption.
Some are likely going to make elixirs with malachite anyway; and if you do, be sure to wash hands thoroughly both before and after preparation. Restrict usage of finished product to external use. If you feel a dire need to make malachite elixirs, then perhaps try the non contact method as outlined here. Either way, contact or non contact method, this site doesn't recommend making elixirs with malachite jasper.
CLEANSING YOUR MALACHITE CRYSTALS
Do not cleanse malachite in salt water as it will damage the finish. A simple way to cleanse stale energies from a malachite crystal is to place it on a bed of selenite; smudging is another suitable option.
