The second name of the schorl stone is black tourmaline.
This is the stone of the fourth, black face of the goddess, so it can lead through inner darkness, overcome life challenges and emerge to the inner light.
Deep, velvety black like the night sky, black tourmaline attracts those who seek independence and clarity. This stone is amazing not only for its energy, but also for its physical properties. It electrifies from friction, heat or pressure: one end of the crystal is positively charged and the other end is negatively charged. Tourmaline seems to have been created by nature to help us separate the important from the unnecessary, the useful from the harmful, our own from others.
Its main talent is to separate. Warm it in your hands, rub it, or just squeeze it in the palm of your hand, and it is already charging. When one end of him says yes, the other end says no. He knows how to make sense of the endless streams of information that come at us every day.
The main quality that it can help to manifest in a person is discernment.
The stone helps you to fundamentally feel a sense of your own uniqueness and value, which allows you to be yourself without looking at the opinions of others. Each of us knows what we really need, but we are often afraid to admit it to ourselves. Its energy helps us view ourselves without judgment, teaches us to listen to our inner voice, and, through this, enables us to build an inner barrier against anything debilitating. It works as a kind of filter. With its help it is easy to understand what is worth your attention, what is not, what is just noise, unreasonable other people’s demands, and imposed expectations. The mineral teaches you to sift out the unnecessary – in thoughts, deeds, and relationships.
Black tourmaline is like saying, “Look at what you really need, what will be truly good for you?”
Who is black tourmaline good for?
Black tourmaline is useful for those who are tired of the chaos of life and get lost in the diversity of other people’s opinions. For those who are tired of noise and unnecessary chatter. It helps to focus on the main thing, to separate good from evil and be true to yourself.
It is a stone that knows how to deal with reality and can help us do the same.
