What is Opal?
Opal is a hydrated form of silica, composed of tiny spheres of silicon dioxide arranged in a regular pattern. When light enters the stone and is diffracted by these microscopic spheres, it creates the stunning "play of color" that opals are famous for — flashing blues, greens, reds, and every color in between.
Healing Properties & Meaning
Throughout history, opal has been associated with creativity, inspiration, and imagination. It is believed to amplify one's traits on all levels — emotional, spiritual, and mental. Opal encourages both freedom and independence, stimulating originality and dynamic creativity.
How to Wear Opal
Wear opal close to your skin as a pendant or ring. Its energy amplifies when in contact with your body, enhancing intuition and creative flow. Opal is relatively delicate (5.5–6.5 on the Mohs scale), so treat it gently and avoid extreme heat or harsh chemicals.
