While often considered a gemstone, the glowing, warm amber is not a stone but a fossilized resin from ancient evergreen trees. The oldest amber discovered on Earth is about 320 million years old. Imagine the incredibly powerful energy this amber contains!
Young amber stones are less than 100,000 years old; the most valued pieces of amber are much older than that. (It takes a long time for the tree resin to become true amber.) Isn't it mind-boggling to know that the amber you just bought contains such old, wise energy?
Because amber has been used since ancient times in a variety of cultures—from Greece to Northern Europe—there are many properties attributed to this warm and powerful stone.
The most obvious quality of amber is its old, (very old!) energy. With it comes the accumulated wisdom of the earth and its natural kingdom. You can often see little insects trapped in the amber while it started as a tree resin; this gives the amber stone quite powerful magical properties.
What Are the Properties of Amber?
As with any popular gemstone that has a long history of use in various cultures, amber has accumulated its share of mystical properties. Amber was considered the "soul of the tiger" in Asian cultures and regarded as the stone of courage. Pieces of amber were carried for protection during long travels, as well as used to treat jaundice.
It is also believed that amber:
•Balances emotions
•Attracts good luck
•Eliminates fears
•Relieves a headache
•Clears the mind
•Dissolves negative energy
•Helps develop patience and wisdom
Amber is considered the birthstone of the astrological sign of Cancer as it sure reflects the energy of the warmest and sunniest month of the year (in the Northern hemisphere, of course!).
