The Healing Message of Labradorite
LABRADORITE
You have to look at me
from different perspectives
each time revealing
different colors.
The magic of life
you have to appreciate
by finding in things
their bright side.
And if what you see
doesn’t please you
bring into it
new beams of light.
Life is like me
a rainbow of possibilities
take it in your hands
and shake out the colors.

Labradorite is a magic stone. It has a gray body with colored luminescence, where hues of golden yellow, orange, blue, green and purple are often present in the same stone. But they can be seen only looking at the stone from a specific angle.
I love to hold a labradorite stone on my hands and “shake out the colors”, moving the stone so that the light hit the surface from an angle which brings out a specific color. Then I slightly move it to see if I find other colors.
This is exactly what we are called to do with all circumstances we find ourselves in: find the right way to look at them, so that we can understand their meaning and enjoy their good side.
If we look at our daily life with a close mind and rigid attitude, many events will probably look just gray, as a stone of labradorite when no light hit its surface. But by bringing to them some light, some awareness and understanding, we will find a new richness of meaning.
Labradorite needs to be hit by light to show its beauty. Our life must be hit by the light of awareness to be fully understood and appreciated.
