As we’ve begun to sink into the most energetically mystical times of year, imo, I felt it was time to explore one of the most magical of stones! 🧙

A selection of iridescent labradorite crystals

Labradorite is known as the Magician’s Stone, because it is a potent stone of all forms of magic that can ignite and intensify magical, mystical, and psychic powers/abilities.


It clears the aura and shields it to prevent the good energy from leaking or the bad energy from entering. Labradorite provides protection external energies messing with our own. 

It is a profound stone of transformation. This crystal can help you to become the way that you are destined or meant to be.


Labradorite cleanses the aura and assists the chakras to help remove the negative habits, thoughts, and feelings that can slow or stop you from realizing and achieving your complete and full potential.

This crystal fills you with a psychic awareness that can allow for more confidence, which helps with exploration and expression of true feelings.  It also boosts creativity and the flowing of inspiration. 


This stone can be a powerful tool to strengthen and encourage internal willpower and help with your spiritual path/focus.

Its energies can provide a sense of meaning and purposefulness, which can better allow you to develop fresh ideas or realize joy and excitement with your present situation/life.


labradorite can ease stress and anxiety. That’s due to its detoxing energies. It can also remove harmful energies from other people that you may encounter or deal with.

A bunch of fresh rosemary

As we begin to enter into the darker part of the year and the sacred holiday of Samhain draws near, we are reminded that we are a multi-layered being. 


We are of not only of body and mind, but also of spirit and energy. And the latter cannot and does not “die”.  


If we open and pay attention, this time of year is beautifully laced with lessons and connections with our ancestors and with the part of our essence that is eternal.
