The energy of Spangolite is similar to brochantite, but livlier and more energetic. It has a strong and immediate Heart connection, opening and clearing the Heart and Upper Heart areas, balancing and calming both mind and emotions, and gently opening and clearing the throat, as well as having a healing affect on the lungs. It appears to stimulate circulation in the extremeties, especially warming the hands (Melody believes this is in connection with channelling healing energy).
Meditating with Spangolite can trigger an internal release, allowing physical relaxation and energetic expansion. It can move between and open other dimensions, and also helps deepen our connection with the natural world.
