As a totem animal, the Dragonfly represents the power of Light. It is sometimes thought of as a messenger from the elemental world, and Dragonfly medicine encourages us to seek out the parts of ourselves that are ready (or in need of) a change. The Dragonfly may act as a guide to help you see through illusions and discover the heart of a matter.
Goldstone gets its main properties from the Copper flecks in it.
Goldstone is said to be a Master Healer. It is used to increase the healing energies emanating from the hands, and is often used for long distance healing techniques, such as Reiki - and when sending healing energies of other types, done out of love. It is used for the same purpose when doing healing through the “laying on of hands” – it increases the healer’s abilities.
It is also felt to be extremely effective when sending healing energies through speaking, writing, in meditation or even in dreams.
As you might surmise, it is also a great stone for self-healing…
Goldstone has a slow and steady energy, felt to be more gentle than copper, making it ideal for distance healing of all kinds.
Goldstone has long been used to support the stabilizing and balancing of emotions and to aid one in staying calm. It is a useful protection stone, used to repel negative entities and ghosts – although for that use, copper night be more effective.
Goldstone reminds us to set goals that are lofty and then work to attain them. It is also thought to stimulate optimism.
In Crystal Healing, besides being an excellent distance healing tool, Goldstone is felt to be extremely helpful in increasing blood flow and reducing inflammation, as well as reducing fatigue and restlessness. Like copper, it is also used for arthritis, but in a slow gentle way.
It is associated with the Throat, Heart and Third Eye Chakras.
Native legends speak of crystal skulls as an inheritance from ancient times. Said to “talk and sing” they are believed to carry messages for all mankind, including what may be discovered when we overcome our fear of death.
