Larimar
Larimar is a form of blue Pectolite that occurs as aggregates of needle-like crystals grown together in a solid mass. It forms in cavities within basaltic lava. Larimar comes only from the island of Hispaniola, in the Caribbean Sea.
Larimar is a stone of tremendous benefit to the throat chakra, providing the power of clear communication and the emotional strength and stability that enable one to speak from the heart. Larimar supports a state of confident well-being and relaxed knowledge of one’s capacities. Relaxation is one of the benefits of Larimar. It soothes the emotional body, releasing undesirable attachments and relieving stress.
In meditation, Larimar can help one see and release oneself from unhealthy inner bonds to other people, or to principles which do not serve one’s highest good. It opens the pathways to the “divine stair of ascension,’ upon which one leaves behind any obsolete past commitments.
