Healing Properties
Here’s what the crystal healing experts have to say about this stone:

Aegirine, also known as Acmite, is a powerful healing stone for depression, feelings of hopelessness and circular negative thinking. It can assist in prompting a transformation of negative emotions and thought patterns centered around shame, blame, guilt and worthlessness into more positive and helpful directions.
This ability makes Aegirine an extremely powerful tool in treating addiction. By guiding and assisting in the release of destructive tendencies and deeply ingrained habits, Aegirine allows a more positive future reality to emerge.
It can awaken a spiritual understanding of balance, commitment and growth.
Working With Aegirine
In my personal interactions with Aegirine, I’ve experienced the stone as having an interesting “buzzy” sort of energy – it speaks to me of a high energy charge, with a very Shamanic root. Powerful protector during energy work.
