I didnโt think I would ever be writing about crystals again, but this little stone made a personal impression on me. Like most of the darker stones ,it is highly protective and so works with the lower chakras.
I picked this particular little stone up out of a mixed lot one day, momentarily drawn to it by its flashes of blue โ itโs a type of feldspar, similar to labradorite and moonstone, hence its alternative names of black or velvet labradorite or sometimes even black moonstone.
It was first found in the Larvik area of Norway and is specific to that region. I put my little stone away and thought nothing more about it, until waking up one morning, I remembered I had dreamed about it. I canโt recall the exact details, but I was suddenly possessed by the overwhelming need to get this stone out and look at it again.
Could I hell as like find itโฆ
Until eventually it turned up in the first place I had originally searched for it, like it was reminding me I need to be more careful about how I look at things.
Finally, I was able to hold this little stone โ about the size of a sugar lump โ and look at it properly. Itโs a pleasing mixture of different shades of grey, my favourite colour, with occasional glimpses of a startling electric blue.
It seemed happy to be found and stuffed into my pocket with the rest of my usual rammel and I felt โ calmer.
I went away to read about it and was absurdly pleased to find that Larvikiteโs abilities seem to cover a lot of what I needed. It can protect you in your everyday life and even while you sleep. Itโs cleansing both physically and spiritually, helping to remove negativity and encourage a positive flow of energy instead.
Itโs the first crystal in a while that has had such an impact on me โ it helps to untangle thoughts and enhance concentration, and is a comforting stone to use in meditation as it encourages you to look for the Lightโฆ
Itโs been a challenging few months for me, but Larvikite has a strong connection to Mother Earth and Nature โ basically it reminded me that I enjoy gardening and to get out there and re-connectโฆ
The luminescence encourages you to look at the past, clearly, and see how it is influencing your life right now. Donโt get me wrong, itโs not all โLove and Lightโ but its clarity helps you to make conscious, positive decisions.
Does this sound too far out?
You should hear the dreams Iโve had since sleeping with it under my pillow. Totallyโฆ far out. And no, I havenโt changed my medication
The other evening I was watching television, my larvikite sat beside me on the arm of the chair, when my partner walked past. He can be a bit grabby with my crystals which I find annoying, but anyway, my larvikite was having none of his unwanted attention.
He reached out to seize it and โ this is absolutely true โ a spark of blue static electricity shot out and stung his finger.
โOw!โ He yelled indignantly.
โIt bit me! What the f*&k is it??โ shaking his hand and looking somewhat affronted.
โOh,โ I replied nonchalantly, โthatโs my larvikite. Very protective.โ
โNo s*&t!โ he muttered and stomped off to the kitchen.
I held this little stone in my hand and was comforted, I suppose. So there you are.
Look for the Light โ no matter what form it takes!
Sounds like a powerful stone indeed! Happy Sunday!

That’s some powerful magic stone you have there, Samantha…MOL๐ธ Granny was deeply attracted by this stone a few weeks ago, but bought a Lapis Lazuli for her chain, because that’s why she came in the shop in the first place, now she regrets that she didn’t respond to her feelings. We loved the writing โค Pawkisses for a wonderful week ahead๐พ๐ฝ๐

Thank you very much dear Binky..I was interested to hear Granny wanted a lapis, that’s one of the stones that I don’t really resonate with…she would definitely love larvikite though!
Thank you for your kind words and have a lovely week ๐บ๐xxx
