Labradorite Mala

Labradorite - Protection
This stone is named after the place where it was found, the Canadian province of Labrador. Native peoples called it fire stone and used it in powdered form to cure their ailments. According to an Inuit legend, a warrior saw an aurora borealis trapped in a rock. He struck it with his spear to release the lights, but some of them remained inside the rock, giving it iridescent reflections.

Labradorite is considered to be one of the most powerful protective stones, as it creates a shield that protects the aura. It also tempers the negativity within us, making it easier to heal the body and mind.
