White opal is a calming and protective stone, absorbing negative emotions and bringing a sense of peace to an overactive mind. White opal helps alleviate worry, chronic stress and depression, and are perfect antidotes for sleeplessness and nightmares, and healing subconsciously held pain. Common Opal combines Earth and Water energies, and may be used to balance the male/female energies within the body, and to both align and balance the chakras.
