My Personal Experiences with Opalite
All crystal information aside, what has been my personal experience with this lovely gem? I’d be happy to share it with you!
I first bought an opalite pendant a couple years ago when I was struggling with anxiety. At the time, I was under a lot of stress at work and it often left me burnt out. The moment I put on my opalite pendant, I felt myself relax – like a weight had been lifted.
In times of stress, holding onto this stone seems to bring me right back to my center. I feel more present, clearer in my head, and able to process everything that comes my way. It’s not a cure-all, but it reminds me to breathe and keep my feet on the ground.
I have also found that opalite helps with meditation. Its ethereal appearance seems to enhance visions, while its energy brings a sense of calm. I have had some of my most profound meditations while gazing at an opalite!
Also, I find opalite jewelry very beautiful! As a jewelry lover, I wear it to add a unique touch to casual outfits. For me, this beauty itself lifts my spirits!

You know yourself and your spiritual needs better than anyone else. Evaluate opalite based on your understanding of life, not just your astrological archetype.
