Howlite
Another stone I am never without is the lowly Howlite.
I once read a description of this stone as rather unimpressive
in its natural state. Howlite is a white veined stone
which has almost a shattered eggshell appearance with
grey lines creeping over its surface. Howlite is often
available in blues and turquoise colours, however this
is not its natural state and this is the result of artificial
colouration. Howlite can be found widely across America,
Canada and parts of Western Europe. It has the most
unusual feel, which I can only describe as polished
chalk. Howlite resembles Magnesite which has been tumbled
so if you are unsure give the stone a rub… it has a
feeling like no other gemstone I know.
Howlite is the most peaceful and soothing stone. It
you are needing sleep, meditating or simply unwinding,
Howlite can help. Howlite calms rage and irrational
anger. Howlite may also tame rudeness and boastfulness.
If you have a friend who is prone to bouts of undesirable
behaviour, slip a bit of Howlite into their bag or pocket.
Howlite also can be used to increase patience and understanding.
If you experience trouble sleeping, try a piece of Howlite
under your pillow. Another use of Howlite is that it
is said to aid memory and can also be incorporated into
learning and the quest for knowledge.

your candle and sit comfortably on the floor. Carefully
anoint your temples with a drop or two of the lavender
oil and then anoint your Howlite crystal. Hold your stone
lightly in your hands and quietly whisper the following
Howlite

Sit
quietly for a few moments. Concentrate on the feel of
the stone, the smoothness, the calmness. Breathe deeply
and enjoy the scent of the lavender oil. It you are
doing the spell before bedtime, place your crystal under
your pillow and enjoy a restful night sleep, if not,
put it in your pocket and carry on with your day.
