Pipestone
Pipestone, also known as Red Catlinite, is a type of red clay that has been used by Native Americans to make pipes and totems, hence the name. It can be found in various sites across the USA, most famously Minnesota in Pipestone County. It is sacred to the Native Americans and as such should be treated with respect. The red colour in Pipestone comes from high levels of iron from the Hematite within the clay.
Pipestone helps you achieve deep self-reflection, guiding individuals to explore their inner thoughts and emotions with greater clarity. Pipestone also helps to foster self-acceptance, enabling individuals to confront and embrace aspects they may dislike about themselves, promoting growth and self-love. It actively supports the process of making peace with others, facilitating understanding and forgiveness in relationships. This crystal aids in the release of accumulated anger and resentment, allowing individuals to move forward with a lighter heart and a sense of liberation. Pipestone also encourages the valuable lesson of learning from past mistakes and hurt, empowering individuals to gain wisdom from experiences while promoting the courage to let go and move forward on their life journey.
