Talc is the softest known mineral, scoring only 1 on the Mohs Scale of Hardness. Usually found in masses, it will only crystallise very rarely into transparent crystals. Soapstone is mostly comprised of Talc, which is why it is used so commonly for carvings as it is easy to work.

Talc can help to release stress and anger, promoting feelings of calmness and serenity. This crystal can aid in achieving a deep state of meditation, allowing for a better connection with oneself, stimulating energy flow through the chakras and releasing blockages that may be hindering one's spiritual growth. Talc is a great aid for letting go of negative energy, creating space for positive energy to enter.
