BARITE

Chakra- Third Eye (6th), Crown (7th), Hardness 3-3.5; Crystal Structure- Orthorhombic.

Barite is found most often in England, the United States, and Romania.  It provides a clear connection to the spirit world and when used during sleep, it provides a contact with higher realms.  If used for dream work, one should be prepared to immediately write down their dreams upon awakening.  When used during meditation, it assists in opening channels to higher realms.  When used with other stones, it can facilitate different results.  For example, higher realms can be best visited when used with Phenacite, Natrolite, Azeztulite™; serenity by using Petalite and Amblygonite; angelic visitation with Danburite; grounding with Fluorite.

Healing

Barite assists hemispheric synchronization in the brain and offers energy for those having difficulties due to brain chemistry imbalances or brain damage.  It helps lose fear based reactions to living situations and lessens attachments to those experiences.  It is excellent for balancing brain chemistry.  It helps in situations involving brain degeneration and helps memory and information retention.
