Turquoise is a stone for wisdom and peace

Turquoise Feel Loved

At Moonrise Crystals we believe that there’s a crystal for every person and every situation. This Turquoise was gifted to a very special person. They were nominated by someone who loves them very much.

He’s a gentle soul who has dedicated his life in service to others.  His first career was in the military, where he served his country with honor.  Next he joined the police-force and protected his local community.  He’s got some crazy stories – there are some things that only happen in Las Vegas!  He’s retired now.  He’s suppose to relax and enjoy himself.  Supposedly his days of serving are over.

But he’s used to sacrificing himself for others.  He’s used to putting other people’s needs first.  It feels natural to give his energy and strength to help a stranger or loved one in need.  He’s never had the time or space to just focus on himself.

A friend calls him “a huge teddy bear” and gushes about his kind, patient and grounding energy.  She’s so thankful for the way he helped her in a dark hour.  She recognizes how often this man gives and gives.  She wants him to know that it’s okay to focus now on what brings him joy.  She wants him to know that he is so loved and admired.

Their Stone

Turquoise is a stone for wisdom and peace.  It sends a refreshing breeze into our soul, restoring us to our True Self.  Blue Turquoise has a ‘male’ energy and evokes the mighty strength and dignity of the Sacred Masculine.  It invites us to stand tall, be proud, and do our best in all things.  It also invites us to recognize our own great value, and to trust in that without fear, arrogance or embarrassment.  Turquoise helps us to be generous and compassionate.  But it also reminds us that we don’t need to be martyrs for something that doesn’t require such an extreme display. Turquoise helps us to relax, take it easy, and protect ourselves from emotional exhaustion.  Turquoise helps us to cultivate a good balance in all things.  It guides us onto a happy path that we can confidently walk for many years to come.  Turquoise opens our heart to receive more love from others and to love ourselves better than we have before.

Turquoise can be blue, green, or somewhere in between.  Most of the Turquoise you see in jewelry and in tumbled stones has been stabilized.  This is because untreated can be soft like chalk and crumble easily.  Some nuggets are sturdy enough to not require stabilization, but those little gems are rare.  Turquoise has been sought after for thousands of years for its beauty and healing properties.  According to Native American tribes in the southwest, the blue stones have a ‘male energy’ that evokes Father Sky, while the green ones have ‘female energy’ and Mother Earth.  Regardless of the hue, it is […]
