Dolphin Stone / Larimar

Larimar, also called "Stefilia's Stone", is a rare blue variety of the silicate mineral pectolite found only in the Dominican Republic, in the Caribbean. Its coloration varies from white, light-blue, green-blue to deep blue.

Some believe that larimar is the blue stone with extraordinary healing powers that Edgar Cayce predicted would be discovered in the Caribbean, where he said part of Atlantis could be found.

Larimar awakens feminine power and soothes the emotions.

• Created by volcanic activity, it balances water and fire energy
• Powerful throat chakra stone, assists in expression of emotions
• Teaches respect, love and nurturing
• Cleanses unhealthy emotional blocks, releases attachments
• Excellent for pregnant or new mothers to relieve depression and stress

I don't know if it does all that but I do know it makes me happy to look at it or hold it. I was drawn to the color. It is also called the dolphin stone or Atlantis stone.
