Yes, everyone loves larimar.

They do. C’mon… who doesn’t?

So, today, I’m coming to you with the Dolphin Stone, Larimar.

Ooooohhh Larimar.

Iarimar pendent

An artist handcrafted my larimar pendant in Maui. I met the artist there & fell in love with the energy of this specific piece while surrounded by dolphin energy ♥

I love this stone.

Known as the Dolphin Stone, some people even call it the Mermaid Stone or the Stone of Atlantis. As I show you in the above vid, it’s a sky-blue stone, although it does vary a bit in its intensity and hue.

Larimar is a type of pectolite, which is a sodium calcium silicate that forms in cavities of basaltic lava and is found in only one place on the planet: the Barahona region mines in the Dominican Republic:

Larimar measures 4.5 to 5.0 on the Mohs Hardness scale, so not too soft. You can undoubtedly make jewelry from it. There’s some white in there and lots of watery blues. Sometimes, it even goes into a green hue. You can learn more about the geology of Larimar here. 

Larimar always shows up in masses. You’re never going to see crystals of Larimar. It’s always a mass, but a gorgeous one!

There’s a little bit of red in the pendant I have here below due to some hematite inclusions {totally standard, by the way}… so a wee bit of grounding energy with my water here.

Throat Chakra Stone

With its blue color, it’s obviously a Throat Chakra Stone:

  • very calming and soothing
  • allows you to communicate effectively
  • taps into ocean and dolphin energy
  • carries divine feminine energy
  • also really great for tapping into goddess energy

It’s a really excellent stone to have in your collection.

When you’re just looking for something to be very calming and gentle, Larimar is your stone.

I feel a close connection to the ocean when working with this stone. I really, really love this.

In fact, I got mine in a place that also gives me that incredible connection to the ocean,  Atlantis, and Mermaid Energy. It was nowhere near the Dominican Republic but rather in Maui, Hawaii.

In fact, I’m going to show you a picture of this gigantic necklace that I saw in Maui made of Larimar. They’re just nuts about Larimar in Hawaii in general. I can see why… larimar energy and Hawaii energy resonate so well.

Look at this piece! It is huge.

I mean —

I don’t think this piece was actually meant for anybody to wear because you’d be stooped over like a hunchback with a cane if you did. Your chiropractor would absolutely love you, though.

But what a great conversation piece — It certainly got me drooling talking! ♥

So, do you have a heavenly piece of Larimar that you wear or work with for its crystal energy or in meditation?  We’d all love to hear about it.
