ATTRIBUTES: Apophyllite has a high water content which makes it a very efficient conductor of energy and a carrier of the Akashic Record (the esoteric record of all that has occurred and will occur, including past-life information). Its presence in a room enhances the energies as it is a powerful vibrational transmitter. Apophyllite creates a conscious connection between the physical and the spiritual relams. During out-of-body journeys, it keeps a strong connection with the physical body, allowing information to be transmitted from the spiritual realm into the physical. This spiritual stone enhances clear sight, stimulating intuition and enabling the future to be accessed. It is an excellent stone for scrying.

Psychologically, Apophyllite promotes introspection into one's own behavior, and the correction of imbalances of flaws that are perceived. It abandons pretence and breaks down reserve. This is a stone of truth, bringing recognition of one's true self and allowing that to be shown to the world.

Mentally, Apophyllite has a calming effect. It is an effective stress reducer, reducing mental blockages and negative thought patterns. It has the effect of reducing desire. At a spiritual level, Apophyllite imbues universal love into analysis and the decision-making process so that the mind becomes attuned to spirit.

Emotionally, Apophyllite releases suppressed emotions. it overcomes anxiety, worries, and fears. It calms apprehension and allows uncertainty to be tolerated.

Spiritually, this stone calms and grounds the spirit. It has strong links to the spiritual realm, while at the same time allowing you to feel comfortable within your body. It facilitates journeys out of the body and spiritual vision. With its connection to the Akashic Record, it eases journeys into past lives.

HEALING: Apophyllite is regarded as the stone par exellence to assist Reiki healing. It facilitates taking the patient into a deeper state of relaxation and receptiveness, and, at the same time takes the healer out of the wayso that the transmission of healing energy to the patient is purer. Apophyllite works on the resoiratory system and, when held to the chest, can stop asthma attacks. it neutralizes allergies and promotes the regeneration of the mucus membranes and the skin. Placing an Apophyllite crystal on each eye rejuvinates the eyes.

POSITION: Place as appropriate. Single Apophyllite pyramids can be placed on the third eye when channeling or meditating. When scrying, look into the crystal from the corner of the eye.
