Crazy Lace Agate HistoryCrazy lace agate (also known as Mexican Agate) is young in comparison to many other minerals on Earth. Found exclusively within the area known as Chihuahua, in Northern Mexico, this lacy agate is known not only for its stunning banded patterns, but its powerful healing energies as well. Crazy lace agate is believed to have been created in the cretaceous period, about 65-90 million years ago. 

 

Since it's only found in Mexico, crazy lace agate retains much of the energy of that area, in particular the tribal energies from ancient cultures that are still surrounded in mystery. There is evidence this agate was worn as an amulet by the earliest inhabitants of Mexico for endurance and courage in battle. Crazy Lace Agate Metaphysical PropertiesSimilar to other agates and silica rocks, crazy lace agate is a good general healing stone. Crazy lace agate is commonly referred to as the "laughter stone," or "happy lace." It's a balancing and protecting stone, believed to ward off the "evil eye," bringing joy and absorbing emotional pain. 

 

Crazy lace agate helps to increase one's energy and encourage concentration so that one can stay on task and complete goals much easier. This stone's help with focusing makes it a great stone for those with ADHD. It is said this stone promotes inner stability, composure and maturity and its warm protective properties encourage security and self-confidence. Crazy Lace Agate Geological PropertiesCrazy lace agate (also known as Mexican Agate) is a banded chalcedony (microcrystalline quartz) that's infused with iron and aluminum and is often brightly colored and complexly patterned. This produces the creamy browns, blacks, greys and golds (and occasional pinks or reds) swirled together in this stone. This stone is found exclusively within the area known as Chihuahua, in Northern Mexico.

 

Proper Care of Crazy Lace AgateClean crazy lace agate using warm soapy water and a soft brush. Although it has a high hardness, crazy lace agate can still be scratched or damaged by gemstones with a higher hardness, as well as other materials. Avoid using household chemicals when cleaning crazy lace agate beads, components or jewelry. This stone can be sensitive to heat, especially if they are dyed stones, and prolonged exposure to sunlight can fade color-enhanced types. Store crazy lace agate inside a fabric-lined box or wrapped in a soft cloth.

Yellow Dendritic Agate combines two very powerful stones, Dendrites which are the fern growth through his agate, and Yellow Agate. Dendrites growing through another stone symbolize powerful roots that stand regardless of the hard stone around them, stopping emotional violations such as abuse, and trauma, while Yellow Agate increases ones Willpower and Resolve. Willpower that can allow one to break free of trauma past or present and the resolve to accept that they are human, and deserved to be loved. Yellow Dendritic Agate for Past Trauma

 

Keep this stone sitting on top a soap dish filled with salt, on your nightstand. This way the Yellow Dendritic Agate can help to ease worries, drains, and insomnia of past traumas and instill a new vigor for life and acceptance of ones self through resolve and willpower.

 

Yellow Dendritic Agate for Current Trauma

 

For current Traumas keep Yellow Dendritic Agate on ones self to defend against invasions of personal boundaries, and to give one the willpower needed to keep going. Place this stone sitting on top a soap dish filled with salt, on your nightstand at night to allow it to clear energies and assist with self doubt and bad dreams at night.

 

Cleaning and Clearing Yellow Dendritic Agate

 

Set your Yellow Dendritic Agate stones in dry salt overnight to clear them, or recharge them by setting them out under a full moon overnight. I personally do both. I first clear the negative energies they can pick up by setting them in salt throughout the day and then leave them out in a full moon to recharge them.
