Howlite Meaning and Metaphysical Properties

White Howlite is used as a gemstone for stress relief, inner peace, and finding joy in the world around us by encouraging us to let go of the little things. It is believed that Howlite removes and filters negative thoughts for those who work with it, providing mental focus and a more hopeful perspective. Howlite is also considered to be a good warding stone for shielding against ambient negative energy, preventing outside influences from inspiring selfishness. Carry Howlite with you as a touchstone during times when you must interact with persistently negative people, or find yourself in a bad mood, and you will quickly discover why this gemstone is associated with calming tempers, staying centered, and instilling compassion. It's not surprising that Howlite is a Crown Chakra crystal, since the spiritual properties of Howlite make it a gem for acting in accordance with the Higher Self.

What is Howlite?
Howlite is a natural borate mineral and can usually be found in nodule form, embedded within Anhydrite or Gypsum. These Howlite nodules have an interesting shape similar to that of cauliflower, and are usually seen with opaque white or ivory coloration and sporting grey veining. Although Howlite can form in crystals, these are much rarer, and are usually colorless to brownish-grey-- a far cry from the White Howlite most collectors are accustomed to. 

How to Cleanse Howlite
Sources listing the Mohs hardness of Howlite as 6 - 6.5 are referring specifically to its rarer crystal formations, since massive Howlite (the white nodule form) is much softer at 3 - 3.5. This means that you should not expose your Howlite to liquids long-term, since this can result in further softening and damage of the stone. For spiritually cleansing or charging your Howlite, we always suggest a Selenite bowl or exposure to Full Moonlight. Smoke Cleansing with Sage, dried herbs, Incense, or Palo Santo wood is another safe way to cleanse Howlite stones.

What is a Palm Stone? What is a Worry Stone?
Semi-flat round or ovular stones have been used as meditation tools and fidget toys across many cultures. Sometimes called palm stones, worry stones, fidget stones, or meditation stones, these gems are easy to hold and typically quite pleasant to rub with the thumb. Some feature a flat surface, while others are convex, and still others exhibit a thumbprint divot. The shape and style of crystal palm stones can vary widely, but the most important quality is that they should be comfortable to hold in the hand. Used as a method for grounding and stress relief, crystal palm stones can help us to release anxiety and focus on the present moment by channeling chaotic or negative energies elsewhere. The type of crystal or gemstone your worry stone is made of can also help remind you of your metaphysical intent, and assist you in connecting with the aspects of yourself most associated with that gem. By carrying your crystal palm stone with you in a pocket or pouch, you will always have a meditation tool available to you, even during times when full meditation is not possible.
