I love making fires, doing burn ceremonies, and the element of fire in general. Lava is also black, I love the color. In 5 Elements Chinese Medicine, the water element is represented by the colors black and purple. I love that Lava so beautifully represents the balance and nourishment of water and fire. This balance is inspired by my love <3 I love you and thank you for always supporting me. You are a true gift to this world, ya stud muffin. 

Lava Metaphysical Properties

Lava is associated with the root chakra as, like roots, it comes from deep in the ground. The earthy qualities of lava make it a stone of grounding, focus and balance, materialism and restraint. Its fiery energy is associated with passion, assertiveness, and energy. When you are drawn to lava you may be seeking energy and stamina. It is also said to be useful as a stone of detoxification, to dissipate anger, and to clear negative energy. Crystal healers use it to help with anxiety, emotional tranquility, relaxation, and a sense of calmness. It is said to be a "stress absorber."

Lava's porous quality makes it popular to use as a diffuser in aromatherapy. Sprinkle a small stone with essential oils and wear it in a cage or filigree locket. The beneficial qualities of the oils and the lava will be with the wearer all day. Diffusers can also be used to keep cars smelling fresh.

Lava Geological Properties

Lava stone derives from magma, extremely hot molten rock from deep in the Earth. It is expelled from Earth's crust when it is heated to extremely high temperatures by geothermal energy. As temperatures reach roughly 700 to 1,200 °C (1,292 to 2,192 °F) magma is expelled through a vent, resulting in a lava flow on the outer crust of the Earth. The lava flow is a viscous, bubbling combination of crystals, gasses, and liquids. As it cools and solidifies, it forms the igneous rock known as lava rock. Lava is a predominant rock on Earth, covering approximately 70% of the planet. Lava beads and components are made from the igneous rock basalt which is approximately 65% feldspar. It has a unique surface texture with pits and voids. It may have a glassy matrix and mineral grains within it.

Proper Care of Lava

If your lava beads get dirty, or you want to change the scent in your aromatherapy jewelry, simply rinse the beads in warm water with a very mild soap or Himalayan salt. Rinse to remove soap and let them dry. Keep away from chemicals and do not clean in ultrasonic cleaners.

Lava History

As the oldest stone in the world, lava has been used in jewelry by many cultures. The Victorian era saw an upsurge in lava jewelry production when cameos were at the height of popularity. Cameos were carved on pieces of lava from Mt. Vesuvius. During the 19th century, cameos were sought-after souvenirs for English ladies touring Italy. Although classical Roman and Greek gods and goddesses were usually carved into the cameos, a lady could commission one to be carved of herself. Lava jewelry is still popular in Italian souvenir shops and is often mixed with red coral. Jewelry-makers in Hawaii, New Zealand, Iceland, South, and North America, and many more places make jewelry from volcanic rocks.

The word lava comes from the Latin word lavare which means to wash, or alternatively from labes which means to fall or slip--referring to the flash floods, or streams of lava spewing down from a volcano.

Taking lava rock from the Hawaiian Islands is shrouded in superstition. According to legend and mythology, it is taboo to take lava, pumice, or shells from the island as souvenirs. The belief is that Pele, the jealous and powerful goddess of fire and volcanos, rules over and protects the Hawaiian people and land. She considers the volcanic rocks to be her children. She curses violators with extreme misfortune until they return the materials. As a result of this belief, many boxes of shells and lava rock are sent back to Hawaii every year.

Agate is an excellent stone for rebalancing and harmonizing body, mind, and spirit. It cleanses and stabilizes the aura, eliminating and transforming negativity. Agate enhances mental function, improving concentration, perception, and analytical abilities.

Gold-plated beads. Working as an excellent alternative for the purification of the body, Gold is believed to act on the emotional system of the human body, stabilize it, help alleviate tension and stress and amplify positivity. Gold has been used to enhance mental faculties and in the rejuvenation of the endocrine system.

I put the malas and real stone jewelry out under the moon to cleanse them and to give you the best support possible through the healing powers of Mother Earth. 

The moon cleanses real stones. Especially a full moon. Rain, sun, fresh air, and nature, in general, do this. 

I have many different malas made with different quality, real, and rare stones. I wear them on different days depending on the support I need emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually. 

For instance, if I need help to heal my body and/or soul, I go to labradorite and amethyst. 

Lápiz and Sapphire for clear communication and throat Chakra. 

Amazonite for protection from anything that vibrates beneath love, light, wisdom, and compassion. Good vibes only. 

Carnelian and Garnet for sacral and root chakra support, menstrual cycle wellness, and a balanced energizing/grounding effect. 

Rose quartz and fluorite to have the courage to trust in the power of love. Love, love, love.

Malas traditionally are used in meditation to recite mantras. To calm and focus the mind. Cultivate peace and clarity. And if you’re like me to give my hands something to do so they don’t go distracting me ;-) 

Meditation has been scientifically proven to help us with our overall, holistic health. Mental focus. Balanced mood. Organ function. Productivity. Healthy relationships with self and others.
