Valued for their unique beauty and believed to promote emotional balance, positive energy, and enhanced creativity.
 
Benefits of Opal:
An Opal stone often referred to as “The stone of choice”, is valued for emotional healing creativity, and self-empowerment. It acts as an emotional mirror, helping the individual reorganize and process repressed emotions. Opals are also known to stimulate originality and overcome creativity blocks in artistic and business contexts. Additionally, they support eyesight, immune function and hormonal stability, contributing to a sense of calm confidence. Wearing an opal enhances self-expression and fosters inner peace. 

How to wear Opal:
Opal is a soft gemstone with significant potential when used with care and knowledge. Traditionally, Opals are set in silver or white gold, enhancing their natural beauty and vibrational properties. Men should ideally wear opal on the right hand’s ring finger, while women should wear it on the left, although personal astrological guidance may influence this. For optimal energy, it is recommended to wear the opal directly against the skin, especially on Friday mornings during Shukla Paksha, and after cleansing the stone. Proper care involves protecting the opal from harsh chemicals and extreme temperatures to retain its beauty and value over time.
