Malachite, the stone of transformation, shields the heart and absorbs negativity, its deep green bands echoing the earth’s protective embrace. It guides cycles of release, growth, and renewal, nurturing compassion, forgiveness, and love. Aligned with the Heart Chakra, it heals old wounds and transforms pain into wisdom. For Scorpio, it softens intensity and awakens intuition; for Capricorn, it clears obstacles, balancing ambition with resilience and emotional well-being.
