Marble in The Morning Light

Marble is a stone which has commercial, artistic and spiritual uses. It is formed from sedimentary rock like limestone or dolomite that goes through periods of heat and pressure causing the rock to crystallize. The colors range from white, yellow, red, green, grey and black. Three of the countries Marble can be found in are Italy, Greece and the United states.  Depending on the limestone and minerals that make up Marble, it’s hardness ranges from 3-5. Making it workable for several uses. I have not been able to find any kind of Chakra affiliation for Marble but I do have another type of this stone to tell you about so there is still hope that I can find one. The clarity this stone gives tells me that it is the Third Eye and Crown Chakras but I would like to verify this.

One of the first public uses can be traced back to Augustus, the first Emperor of Rome. Augustus boasted that he found Rome a city of brick and left it a city of marble, but that is not literally the case, He had some of the public buildings resurfaced with but this is not the entire city. The beauty and durability of this stone make it useful for many commercial uses. It is used as floor and wall tiles, counter tops and, like Augustus, building exteriors. We can’t forget that it has long been used as a preferred sculpture material. One of the most famous statues in the world, the Venus de MIlo was carved from Marble. 

A few other interesting uses for Marble are in gardening, the rail road industries and in your spiritual practice. It is not uncommon to find crushed marble to use as ground cover around plants, or in rail beds. The smaller samples you see above were found by my son as he walked along the tracks in town. The amplifying energy makes a great base for crystal grids. 

Let’s take a look at the spiritual uses of this beautiful stone. Known as the stone of potential, Marble helps you find self-control, clarity to help master your thoughts rather than have them master you and if you need some common sense this is a good choice. Marble has a wonderful quality of making you feel protected. It gives you the strength and structure you might be looking for. 

I have never meditated with this stone before but I have been told that it helps you reach a deep meditative state. Keeping a piece near your bed or under your pillow will help you recall dreams in great detail. 

From a physical level Marble is good for the skin as well as for cleansing the blood and the body’s filtering systems. 

I hope you found this look at Marble interesting. If this stone sounds like one you would like to use, I encourage you to get a piece that resonates with you and give it a try. I, of course, am not suggesting that you use this stone in place of your medical professionals’ direction. I only offer alternative options to enhance your life and health.
