Unakite Carved Turtles

Crystal: Unakite
Chakra: Throat and Third Eye
 
 
Unakite's nickname is "living in the now," highlighting the carpe diem spirit. It's considered scared because it emphasizes presence during meditation and deepens your practice. Unakite is said to be a stone of vision, opening the third eye and useful for scrying. It carries energies of balance in the heart, gently grounding emotions, raising vibrations, promotes patience and persistence,  and marrying emotions and spirituality. It supports those struggling with feeling present or feeling overwhelmed and lost. It's great for sensitive children to help process and heal from sorrow, grief or disappointment. 
 
The turtle is a symbol of longevity, endurance, persistence, and the continuation of life. They remind us to take a break from the everyday chaos, look within, and ground yourself in the now.
