The lore

Malachite stands for change in this reading, with room for what preceded it. The useful question is not how to become someone entirely different, but which repeated choice you are ready to make differently.

Working with it

Notice one familiar point in your day where a habit begins. Plan a small alternative before you reach it, and use the piece as the reminder.

Care & keeping

Wipe gently with a soft cloth and store separately. Follow the maker's instructions for the complete piece, including its finish, treatments, elastic or setting. Avoid soaking, abrasives, steam and ultrasonic cleaning unless the maker confirms they are suitable.
