Meaning of Chalcedony nodule
Chalcedony is a microcrystalline form of quartz, made up of fibres so small that you cannot see them with the naked eye. These nodules, also called truffle chalcedony, come from the desert of the Western Sahara. They have a bumpy surface reminiscent of a bunch of grapes, and their colour ranges from warm desert brown to almost black, with a soft, waxy lustre. With a hardness of 7, they are just as sturdy as ordinary quartz.
Meaning of Chalcedony
Calm, Communication & Care
Chalcedony has a gentle, calming energy. It brings peace to your mind and your feelings, and helps you take a step back before you react. That way you speak from goodwill rather than from impulse.
It is also known as a stone of communication. It helps you express your thoughts and feelings, listen better and feel understood. It also brings harmony to groups and eases tension between people.
This round chalcedony also has a nurturing, gently grounding side. It teaches you to take good care of yourself and others, and strengthens the bond between parent and child. Through the throat chakra, it helps you say calmly and honestly what is going on inside you.
