LETTER OF LARIMAR.
by Wanda Veloz
ello. I’m here today to tell you about myself.
Some know me with names like: Dolphin
Stone, Atlantis Stone, Blue Pectolite. I come
from the Caribbean area; more specifically
from the province of Barahona in the
Dominican Republic.
I have a volcanic origin, and according to
expert studies, I was born in the Miocene
era. However today I come to you
because I want you to know me beyond
what the books say. I’m not only a gem to adorn jewels and
sculpt diverse figures and forms with. Today I want you to
know my essence.
I’m considered a gem that contains within itself the proper-
ties of the element of fire, given my volcanic origin, and also
of water, reflected in my turquoise blue tones. That’s why I’m
one of the few stones that can balance these polarities,
which gives me the ability to appease the strongest of
temperaments, appease fears, relieve stress and nourish
both the physical and emotional bodies. I’m a stone
destined to soothe. It’s no coincidence that I’m found in the
heart of the Caribbean; a sea whose name is synonymous
of fierceness, and a geographic area where the energy
carries incredible intensity and strength.
I’m a pillar of Love; a Love born, centered and expanded in
my blue tones, bathed in a touch of white clouds symboliz-
ing peace. The sky and the sea come together in me, for I
reflect the deep, clear blue waters of various shades that are
synonymous with the tropical Caribbean, and the white
clouds that dance in the sky. I’m a reflection of your deepest
inner waters, and the heavens that elevate your being.
You know? Today I want to ask you to take care of me. I give
myself to you in an act of Love; receive me with gratitude
and joy. Protect me from those who have taken advantage
of my kindness and distributed me without any conscience or
respect. It’s no accident that recently in the country measures
have been taken to regularize my distribution and extraction
from Mother Earth, which shelters, pampers and takes care
of me.
It’s time for the Dominicans, as my custodians, to be empow-
ered and connected with the value I give them; with the
peace I represent; with the calm I radiate. It’s time for me to
be appreciated, known and honored for who I am. It’s time
for them to demand respect for me and defend me; that I’m
adorned and shaped with greater awareness. It’s time for
people to work my energy in a more conscious way, in
accordance with our power as the One being that we are.
I’m a gift that the Dominicans are in charge of distributing to
the world. It’s time for them to connect with that part of their
Taíno heritage and with the land they tread. I can help them
do it. There’s a lot of magic around them. Healing is neces-
sary, both for the Dominicans as individuals and as a nation,
in their relationship with the land and their Taíno culture, and
for the world through the Dominicans. Now more than ever
it’s imperative to offer that Peace to the whole planet that’s so
thirsty for it. And this is possible to do at an energetic level
in the distribution of the jewels that I adorn.
It’s time to break the paradigms that have governed my
extraction, presentation and distribution to the world. Don’t
fear to dream beyond what is established. The world needs
physical entrepreneurs, yes, but also spiritual entrepreneurs
and forgers to trace new paths. Raise your vibration and
connect your earthly activities to higher planes.
Be certain that everything has a vibration, and gems like me
have a higher purpose that goes beyond physical percep-
tions. Mother Earth gives light to all gems in a loving way.
It’s a gift for all of you. Don’t underestimate or ignore it. Wel-
come that gift of Love and give it lovingly, just as you’ve
received it.
Heal your land. Heal your hearts and spirits. Let me become
a symbol of PEACE and LOVE for the world. Give me away
consciously at subtler levels, for you aren’t only giving or
receiving a simple stone. Imprint in me an intention of Love,
which I will make sure to give to the one to whose hands I
end up in.
With love,
Larimar
