White Howlite bracelet and earring set

Howlite has a wonderfully soft and peaceful energy that gently expands outward when used during meditation, prayer or spiritual journeying. It calms our spirit, helping us to find a sense of balance in our everyday life and to connect more directly with our Highest Self and other guides.  Howlite encourages us to believe in our dreams and to not hesitate when action is needed. It is a crystal of patience and wisdom.

Howlite quiets the ‘inner critic’ which is often so unkind, and replaces that voice with one more compassionate, patient and tactful.  Howlite helps us to calmly and clearly express our own thoughts and emotions and to better understand what other people are trying to communicate, both verbally and non-verbally.  Howlite is particularly helpful for handling boisterous children in a loving fashion which nevertheless commands their attention and respect.  Howlite can help us to better handle rude behavior or thoughtlessness of other people.  

It gently releases stress and irritation from our emotional body, and reduces outright anger by channeling it in a productive direction.  Howlite encourages us to speak and act with true decency towards others and to encourage this humanitarian spirit in others. Howlite inspires good, thoughtful reasoning.  It is a wonderful crystal for scholars and students as it encourages a love of learning and improves memory retention. It inspires patience and a willingness to observe, experiment, and carefully analyze before jumping to any conclusions.  Howlite teaches discernment and can help us to give and receive constructive criticism in a more palatable way so that it is easier to accept and integrate.  It also reminds us to be patient with ourselves and our learning process, while remaining ambitious and eager to go after our goals.

Howlite is reminds us to pay attention to what we eat and make sure we get the nutrients we need. It can help us explore dietary problems, which lead to harmful weight-gain or weight-loss.  It reminds us that the body wants to be healthy and balanced and that giving our body good food and proper portions is an act of wisdom and self-love.  Howlite is particularly recommended for anyone exploring the role of calcium levels in their body.  It is a lovely talisman for anything to do with teeth, bones, cartilage, as well as illness such as osteoporosis.  It is also a sweet crystal for anyone suffering from insomnia or nightmares.  Howlite helps us to calm down and to engage in soothing activities.  Don’t be surprised if Howlite’s recommendation is “how about you have a nice glass of warm milk, and then hop back into bed.”

White Howlite has a soothing pulse and is excellent in the use of insomnia. It slows the activity of the mind and allows undisturbed rest. It is used in the teachings of patience and aids memory expansion. Howlite can eliminate rage and calm violent, uncontrolled anger. Keep it in your pocket or on your person to absorb negative energies. It will prove a great help in controlling your own anger and will soften anger directed at you.

To use Howlite hold a piece in the palm of your hand. Close your eyes and relax; check your breathing and feel the pulse in your hand. At first your pulse seems quite fast but gradually it seems to slow. When the pulse seems very slow and peaceful, put the Howlite down and check your pulse by feeling the vein in your wrist. You may be surprised to find how fast your pulse suddenly appears. Hold the Howlite again and notice how quickly the pulse seems to slow as if the Howlite is slowing down your own pulse to a very relaxing natural state. Red Howlite is colour-enhanced white Howlite. It has the same qualities as white Howlite and goes a little further by bringing positivity with it. Red Howlite seems to pack a punch, a soft punch, but a big push never the less. It opens the mind to change and instead of just accepting a situation, it triggers the idea of change.

It has a hugely calming influence helping to slow an over active mind, and in turn this can help to achieve a deep and restful sleep. Howlite can help to access higher wisdoms during the dream state and bring it back into consciousness when awaking.

Howlite is naturally a white stone, so if it is any colour other than white it has been dyed.
