The Balance of Earth and Water: Ocean Granite

Properties: The elemental powers of water and earth, ocean tumbled

granite is a unique stone combining the elements of the sea with the

deep rooted foundations of the earth! These stones are often full of

shiny, light reflecting drusies. This stone is a great balancer of

water and earth (emotions and practicality). Earth helps water to

keep its deep emotions in check. This incredible stone works on both

the Base/Root and Sacral/Spleen Chakra as it grounds unstable or

unsure emotions. Therefore, granite is wonderful for allowing for

increased protection and abundance. This stone works well on

skepticism. It allows for diplomacy, discretion, cooperativeness and

negativity. Granite is a wonderful relationship balancer. Ocean

tumbled granite in particular helps us to see and understand the big

picture. So it shows us to look past the little puddles in our lives

and focus on an ocean of opportunity and advancement!

Folk Remedies: Granite has been used to strengthen the hair and

ailments associated with face and head.

Feng Shui: Granite is used in the Northeast area for self

cultivation, in the Southwest area for partners and relationships and

the Center area grounding, good health and for dispersing negative

energy throughout the room.

Crystal Cleansing: Granite can be cleansed in sea salt and water or

History: Granite (SiO2) (Al2O3) is composed primarily of quartz and

feldspar. It also may contain Orthoclase, which is a form of feldspar

which can form in plate-like layers, short prismatic crystals and

tabular inclusions. Granite is an igneous rock and is formed from

magma. Granitic magma has many potential origins but it must intrude

other rocks. Most granite intrusions are at depth within the crust.

Granite has been honored by many cultures, particularly the

Aboriginal and Mayan cultures, as a sacred and powerful stone. The

Egyptians incorporated granite in many of their pyramids. The Red

Pyramid of Egypt, named for the light blood red hue, has exposed

granite on its surface. The Menkaure's Pyramid was constructed of

limestone and granite blocks. The Great Pyramid of Giza contains a

huge granite sarcophagus made of " Red Aswan Granite. "
