Tourmalines are a large group of borosilicate minerals and are some the world's most popular gemstones! They are adored for their array of beautiful colors which is due to a huge variety of chemical compositions and color zoning. When conditions change during the formation of tourmaline crystals it can cause two or more colors to occur on a single crystal.
Tourmaline colors include black, blue, green, yellow, pink, red, orange, purple, brown, and colorless.
Tourmaline crystals are pyroelectric, piezoelectric, and produce negative ions. This makes Tourmaline a very powerful stone to wear and keep in your space to create positive energy.
Hardness: 7-7.5
Care: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight and heat which can cause the crystal to lose color or fracture.
Feng Shui Placement: Can be placed in various rooms according to the Bagua map or in specific places of a room by intention/color. I always recommend keeping a piece of Black Tourmaline at every entry point of the house, in all four corners of the home and all rooms.

Use + Crystal pairings
Tourmalines are always in my favorite crystal pairings! Tourmalines have a wide range of healing combinations possible due to their variety of chemical formulas.
Selenite + Black Tourmaline
This pairing is perfect for energetic cleansing. Clear any negative or stagnant energy by combining the aura with Selenite. Black Tourmaline will ground and transmute energy.
Flower Agate + Pink Tourmaline
A beautiful pairing for opening it up to love and embracing your true identity. It's extremely supportive of promoting self-esteem and self-acceptance.
Morganite + Watermelon Tourmaline
Helps gently heal any traumas and is particularly supportive when healing the inner child. Morganite and Watermelon Tourmaline have a beautiful synchronistic energy that uplift you during the healing work.
Affirmation: Affirmation: I am free from all negative attachments.
