Tremolite Crystals Meanings and Properties
Green tremolite has a powerful effect on the heart, both the physical organ and the energy centre, making it an aid in healing heart conditions, and opening us to love and compassion. It has an additional influence on the upper heart chakra, stimulating the immune system to fight infection, so it is able to overcome diseases that impact on this system, such as ME and CFS, and teaches it discernment in the case of autoimmune diseases, in which the body does not recognise itself. Its balancing qualities aid clarity of mind and clear vision both physically and mentally.
