This smoke-colored crystal was sacred to the Druids of Scotland and associated with the Greek goddess Hecate, the goddess of magic. It balances the root chakra by connecting you to the energies of the earth and helps absorb negative energies, making it a wonderful stone to help you release and move on from things that are no longer serving you. Place it somewhere in your space where you will see it every day, as a reminder to move through and release lower vibrations.
