Iolite, also known as the Viking’s Compass, is a powerful crystal for bringing a renewed sense of freedom and independence. The Vikings used iolite to help navigate the seas, finding clarity and direction even in the midst of uncertainty.

Similarly, iolite can help you to navigate the turbulent waters of your own mind, so you can better soothe the emotional or psychological triggers that fuel your dependencies.

Iolite crystal isn’t just about introspection, but about opening your eyes to what lies beyond the surface of your behaviours. That feeling of being stuck or bound by unhealthy habits can totally suck! Meditating with iolite can help you to take control of your life and make positive changes.

This crystal really has a great energy to work with when it comes to releasing old patterns, helping you to throw any attachments into the proverbial fire.

Iolite vibrates with the upper chakras, which is why it’s so perfect for the Aquarius full moon on the 19th August, 2024. This gemstone’s power lies in its ability to penetrate deeply into the subconscious mind, revealing truths that might otherwise remain hidden.

When working with Iolite, you may experience revelations about your own dependencies that offer a clearer understanding of how these habits developed, and why they persist. Doing forgiveness work on these areas can help you to break free from them.

Along with its liberating vibration, iolite is also said to enhance spiritual growth and personal transformation. By stimulating the third eye chakra (associated with intuition, insight and spiritual awareness) iolite helps you to see beyond the physical realm, and through the crown chakra (associated with higher consciousness and spiritual connection) iolite can help guide you towards your higher path. By Odin! 

 

Iolite for the Aquarius full moon, 19th August, 2024

The two T-squares taking place under the full moon in Aquarius on the 19th August, 2024, make it a great time for breaking free from old patterns and dependencies. Read more about the celestial energies of the Aquarius full moon HERE

Aquarius, characterised by innovation, freedom and collective progress, aligns perfectly with iolite’s insightful and liberating qualities. One way to embrace a greater sense of independence is by visualising whatever is holding you back as physical chains surrounding your body before breaking through them with style.

 

 

Meditation to release mental restrictions at the Aquarius full moon using iolite crystal

 

Begin by cleansing your space with the palo santo from August Ivory Gloss to remove any negative energy. You might also like to try journaling on what you wish to release or transform. 

 

Sit comfortably, with your spine straight and your hands resting on your knees or in your lap. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths, inhaling through your nose and exhaling through your mouth. Allow your breath to become steady and even, letting go of any tension in your body.

As you continue to breathe, imagine physical chains wrapped around you, representing your addiction or dependency. Visualise these chains tightly binding you, restricting your movements and freedom.

With each inhale, imagine drawing in a radiant, cleansing light through your crown chakra at the top of your head. Feel this energy filling your body, mind, and spirit. As you exhale, visualise the chains beginning to crack and weaken. See them start to loosen, the links breaking one by one.

Continue this visualisation, breathing deeply and calmly. With each breath, feel a sense of liberation growing within you. The chains continue to shatter and fall away, piece by piece, until you are completely free. Feel the weight lifting off your shoulders, replaced by a lightness and sense of empowerment.

Spend a few moments in this state of freedom, breathing deeply and embracing the feeling of liberation. Allow yourself to feel the joy and relief of breaking free from these chains.

When you are ready, gently open your eyes. Take a few moments to reflect on your experience, perhaps journaling on any insights or feelings.
