Most people when they think of opal think about the play of colour and flashes of fire but there is a type of opal that is highly undervalued and quite magical - like this "common" opal from Oregon. Opal from any part of the world has magical properties. There is something special about the Opal that is found in this place on the earth. We tend to think of Oregon Opal as a translucent misty opalescent stone that glows with a blue and golden light - somewhat similar to Girasol but more milky. However, it is found in may colors, including orange and red and blues and greens. Many are attached to matrix which is as wonderfully magical as the Opal Gel.

Opals are a beautiful stone for highly sensitive people and empaths because they help us to keep from getting lost in the noise of toxic energy. I always have Opal near by.

The Magic of Opal

Opal vibrates to the number 8 and is the Elemental Astrological Signs of Cancer, Libra, Pisces & Scorpio. The cause of precious opal's colour was a mystery until the discovery of the electron microscope. It was then found that opal was composed of a great number of tiny 3 dimensional stacked spheres of silica. The cavities between the spheres can cause light to be divided into the spectral colours. Opal without colour contains spheres which are not of orderly size or stacking. Opal can amplify our traits and characteristics, providing motivation for our positive traits to prevail. It helps us to tap into our creativity and imagination. Opal allows us to be spontaneous and true to our feelings. With Opal we can feel more deeply and release our inhibitions. It can be used to strengthen our memory and to instil faithfulness and loyalty. Opal is known as a "stone of happy dreams and changes". Opal can awaken and help us to understand our psychic and mystical qualities. Opal has been used by the Native American Indian and Australian Aboriginal shamans to invoke visions. Opal which has fire (spectral colour) can be used to encourage flashes of intuition and insight.

Opal can be used to assist us in becoming "invisible" in circumstances where we do not wish to be noticed. It brings a quality of "fading into the background" when the energy is so directed. I wanted to see this "invisible" aspect of opal so I tried an experiment with an Oregon Opal and a blue Peruvian Opal. I placed them in a bowl of water and waited to see what happened. I discovered that the opals did indeed disappear into the water. They blended into the water so well, I really thought that they were gone for a moment or two. It took several days for them to return to their original colours when I took them out of the water. Actually my Blue Peruvian Opal was never quite the same afterwards. 

These beautiful opals range in size from approx. 1/2" to 1". I will listen for the Blue Opal Crystal who is singing for you.
