Adamite is an uncommon mineral that is frequently pale or brownish yellow but is also found in rose red, blue, pale greens, and even purple when it is formed in the presence of cobalt. It is named after a famous collector, Gilbert Joseph Adam.

It is found in numerous locations worldwide, including Mexico, southern Africa, in Russia, China, Canada, Greece, and New Zealand. The Cuprian Adamite from Greece is particularly attractive but expensive.

What are Adamite’s Metaphysical Properties?

Adamite gets its metaphysical properties from its crystalline structure, composite elements, and its colour primarily.

If your emotions rule you, Adamite creates emotional equilibrium and will help you to find a calm, centred space around which emotions can rage without affecting your inner serenity. It can help you communicate your needs and attract joy into your life. One of this stone’s biggest draws is its ability to restore an almost childlike sense of wonderment, banishing negativity, disillusion, cynicism, and scepticism. It has a harmonizing effect on the body and fills it with humour and joy.

Chakra Balancing Healing Properties

Adamite helps to unblock and balance

The Solar Plexus Chakra is the energy distribution centre and the chakra of relationships. It is located between the ribcage and navel and controls the immune and digestive systems.
The Heart Chakra, located near the centre of the breastbone, regulates our interaction with the external world and controls what we embrace and what we resist.
The Throat Chakra is the voice of the body, a pressure valve that allows the energy from the other chakras to be expressed.

How to use Adamite?

Adamite is a stone of emotional support, centring, and calmness in the storm. It has some applications as a healing stone for the endocrine system, but primarily this stone is a wonderful support crystal for your emotional well-being.

Because of this use, it must be kept away from areas of stress, conflict, and discord when you are not using it. It also needs to be cleansed very regularly. It is a soft, sensitive stone, and you must treat it as such.

We suggest you consider keeping it locked away and used in simple meditations and simple “calm in the storm” ceremonies.

Do not use water to cleanse this crystal. Crystals ending in “ite” are generally water unsafe crystals.

According to the Cleansing Crystals Guide, “The process is one of using the cleansing power of the wind and the strong beauty of a blooming flower. Place your crystal just downwind from a beautiful flower. Allow the wind to blow over the flower and then over your crystal. The West Wind should brush through the flower petals before it reaches your crystal.”
