Uses: The Epidote is a mediating influence and may be carried on or about the person to ensure protection
against conflicting circumstances. It soothes the emotionally and physically disturbed bodies, composes the mind and lessens the frequency of panic and/or pangs of anxiety.
Epidote also works to heal intestinal blockages due to nervous disorders affecting the stomach.
Epidote has recently entered a renewed stage of accelerated evolutionary growth and will soon be recognized as an important agent in the self-healing process.
Greenish black and pistachio-coloured stones are most favourable for reflecting, conducting and projecting healing Earth energy back into the environment.
