According to the Crystal Council , the Septarian is “a powerful grounding stone that awakens one’s connection to Mother Earth and the nurturing energy she provides”. It provides healing energy especially for those going through sudden change as it helps with emotional healing, and trauma recovery.
- Want to be Rich?
Are you always thinking of being rich? Hold that thought, have you even met anyone who doesn’t want to be wealthy and prosperous? Definitely doesn’t exist. Crystals are said to help in attracting wealth and prosperity, so if you want to manifest more money, you need to try them out. One of the most popular crystals you can add to your crystal collection to attract abundance is the Green Jade.
Making money is a difficult thing (as we all well know) so to make it work you need a little help maintaining calm in difficult situations (like when your business isn’t just working) and a little bit of good luck. The Green Jade provides these. Put a piece of green jade near you when you sleep and manifest your dreams. Just be sure to remember that you will still need to put in some effort😊
