Bronzite

Many people ignore Bronzite because it is so plain when not polished.  When it is polished, it's so lovely, though.  It has a dark charcoal color with flakes of gold.  It is also a very prolific stone and can be found almost anywhere in the world.

Bronzite serves as a catalyst for change but can also be used for grounding. It clears the mind and helps to create certainty. Bronzite is sometimes called the "stone of courtesy" since it can instill politeness. Some wear Bronzite to alleviate nervous energy especially when we are nervous about being in a new situation. It is also helpful for boosting self-esteem, promoting decision making, dispelling negativity, and enhancing creativity. 

Prayer/Meditation for Bronzite

Lord of Change, I call upon you to change me. May the blazing colors of your fragile wings remind me of the beauty found in impermanence, of the connections shared by all things, of flight and importance of wind. Show me the path to what comes next. You who has touched death in your metamorphosis and emerged as something new, flutter into my life, winged spirit, and teach me to recognize change as it arrives, to welcome it more and to fear it less, to trust that you will protect and guide me through the darkness of chrysalis into the brightness of a new world, a new day, a new self. Butterfly, I call on you.
