Found only in remote regions of Peruβs Andes Mountains, Peruvian Opal is considered a gift from Pachamama, the Incan Goddess. βEarth Mother.β
Common Opals resonate with the connection between earth and water.
Water speaks to our emotional bodies, and the connection to earth energy is an invitation to lean into our capacity to really resource her - softening in and allowing ourselves to release what no longer serves.
Doing so creates space for expansion without our energetic systems, and allows the earth to recycle that energy and repurpose it for its greatest good.
A rarer form of Common Opal, Andean Blue is recognized for its ability to quiet the mind. While energetically gentle in nature, Blue Opal creates space to support powerful healing and transformation.
This stone resonates with our heart and throat chakras, and their connection to our third eye. Our heart chakra is the center of our energetic bodies, the connection point between our upper and lower systems.
The connection between heart and throat is a potent one. Our throat chakras, our centers of truth, were once considered our βhighestβ energy center (much like we consider the crown, today).
There are said to be connection points from the throat chakra to every other chakra in our system. Our heart informs our capacity to access our highest truth by returning us to the unconditional connectedness of divine love. By supporting this connection, Blue Opal encourages us to move forward from this connected place.
Blue Opal supports the processing of stuck emotional energy, lending clarity to our voice and our ability to speak from our highest heart.
Also resonating with our third eye, the βseat of our intuition,β Blue Opal supports our capacity for true sight. Intuition is our birthright, our six sense, as accessible to us as our other more βtangible senses.β
Our intuition may be our greatest gift of sense. We are born as instinctual beingsβ¦babies self soothe by belly breathing - a breath many of us βre-learnβ as we grow older.
Weβve always had access to these innate, inner tools. For many of us, we simply didnβt learn to practice this particular sense as part of our foramative evolution, growing up in societies which encouraged quite the opposite.
Blue Opal is a wise teacher and ally along this path of re-learning; of re-membering.

**Since humans began to document communication, and likely even before then, stones have been used to support emotional, physical and spiritual well-being. Stones are matter, and like all matter, vibrate at their own frequency. This energetic support is most often used as one modality in a larger, holistic, whole health approach.

Ethical Commitment - Part I
Unfortunately mining crystals is not regulated in most places, which makes ensuring stones are sourced ethically quite difficult at times.
We believe wholeheartedly that these stones have the power to foster great healing, and it is with love and reverence for Mother Earth, each other, and all things that we offer these products.
We work hard to do our due-diligence. We ask questions about the origin of the pieces, and do not purchase from mines/areas that are known for having unfair practices.
Sometimes we are at the mercy of the vendor regarding this information. See our FAQ, βEthical Stone Information - Part IIβ for details regarding the steps we take before weβre comfortable listing these offerings.
Ethical Commitment - Part II
Certain areas/mines have no regulations in place to protect the environment, ensure staff is age appropriate, receives fair pay, treatment & benefits & has adequate PPE. We will not purchase from these locations & we work hard to determine each pieceβs origin.
When not possible, we must rely on our vendors. Weβve invested time, money & effort into building relationships & trust. We also always trust our gut - If weβre not comfortable, we will not purchase. We continue to educate ourselves & on the rare occasion we learn later that a piece was mined unethically, we will pull it.
Though ethically sourced often = higher cost, we believe strongly in these values. We strive to offer pieces accessible to all, with great love & deep gratitude.
Why is Everything Priced as a Whole Number?
There is a short and a less than short answer here.
Short answer - Iβve never been able to get behind the whole psychology of βcharging $9.99 will look like a better deal than $10 & will increase your sales.β This feels almost dishonest for me, personally, & itβs not a practice I am comfortable with simply for the sake of it.
The less than short answer is that I have always loved whole numbers, particularly the number 0. β0β is often referred to as the void & is considered the space of nothingness. While this isnβt untrue, from nothingness comes the infinite possibility of everything. The void is the beginning of creation, the sacred pause. The end & the beginning.
The number β0β has always felt like magic in tangible form to me.
