Diopside
The word Diopside originated from the Greek words dis, meaning "twice", and opse, meaning "face" in reference to the two ways of orienting the vertical prism.
Diopside occurs in white to light green, darker green, gray or greenish black, reddish brown and yellow-brown. The energy of this mineral depends upon the hue.
Black Diopside is used to establish a connection and grounding with the earth, while
Green Diopside is used for balancing and healing. It energizes the third eye, heart and sacral chakra.
Green diopside promotes emotional well being and the wherewithal to love oneself and others.
Green Diopside:

Healing properties of Diopside
Diopside is used by healers to assist in regeneration after a surgery or physical trauma. Women experiencing menopause find it helpful in calming the emotions and physical changes. It is used as an aid in healing after heart attack or other heart troubles. It has been used for regeneration to heal the lungs from damage caused by smoking.
Considered to be a stone of service, Green Diopside increases compassion, opening your heart to the suffering of others and encouraging you to be of service to the planet through a profound sense of connection with the Earth. By teaching humility and assisting in honoring what you really feel, spiritually this stone supports in following your intuition and enhances your ability to sense.
Diopside is a useful healer for psychological conditions. It teaches the value of trust and forgiveness while assisting in reconciling with anyone or anything that has hurt you in the past. It gives you that initial "push" you need in the right direction. Diopside also helps you to become aware of the gifts you have.
On a mental level (haha) Diopside is helpful for creative pursuits or academic study as it has been known to stimulate intellectual faculties and the art of analysis. It has also been known to help support the study of mathematics.
On an emotional level Diopside is especially beneficial to those who have a hard time showing their grief. It helps promote the process of letting go. If you feel overwhelmed or overburdened by the problems of life it will help you to live life with joy and appreciation.
On a physical level Green Diopside will enhance recovery from surgery, severe illness, or trauma.
All in all this is an extremely well rounded stone. I personally have a large raw piece that I keep where my children do their homework. I find it particularly helpful.
Thank you all so much for reading.
May your light shine so brightly upon others that they too want to be a beacon unto the world!
