Alabaster is a soft, white, semi-transparent stone. Traditionally used in magic to symbolize purity, the whiter the stone the more powerful it is considered to be.

Working with Alabaster is believed to help you develop a sense of peace, calmness and mental clarity. It can be useful any time you are dealing with stress, worry, anger and arguments. A piece of Alabaster kept near your fireplace or the 'heart' of your home is believed to encourage a peaceful and welcoming atmosphere.

As a protective stone, Alabaster is especially good for babies, children and anyone who has an innocent heart.
