This crystal helps you to come to terms with being in incarnation and brings your attention to the reasons for your current experience.

It helps you to accept with love the verbal jibes of other people, showing whether there is any truth there to be accepted.

Psychologically, Okenite brings deep self-forgiveness. It promotes completion of karmic cycles, going back into past lives to forgive yourself for your mistakes and easing karmic guilt. This is a stone of karmic grace. It teaches that everything is part of the cycle of learning the soul's lessons and, growing from the knowledge, that nothing has to be endured forever. When you have done all you can, you can step out of the situation without incurring further karmic debt.

Mentally, Okenite facilitates in changing your mental set. It releases old patterns and brings in new, more appropriate beliefs. It is helpful for anyone suffering from prudishness, especially where this is linked to past-life vows of chastity.
