One should be extremely cautious when handling or working with Orpiment. This mineral can leave toxic traces of arsenic on your hand if not washed, which can be poisonous if ingested or rubbed into the eyes. Additionally, avoid placing it in your pockets as traces can attach to your clothes. We highly urge you to meditate with Orpiment, just be extremely safe about it. As soon as you finish your meditation session, head over to the sink and immediately wash your hands. This way one can remove any trace of arsenic that may have rubbed off of the mineral. Also, be wary of the hardness of Orpiment because it is very brittle.

Orpiment resonates with one's solar plexus chakra, specifically one’s personal will. Your “will” will become activated and aligned with your emotional body. This will help you become more in touch with your personal desires. Your energy level will increase when using this stone, as well as your focus, strength, and confidence. One will notice themselves having a different perception of the things and people closest to them, resulting in a possible change of environment. Now that one is fully aligned and focused on their dreams, any baggage they carry that does not serve them will soon be replaced. This is not only healthy for someone with high aspirations, but also extremely challenging for anyone to do. Orpiment makes this process much less stressful and emotionally taxing by being a constant reminder of what’s most important to you.

Realgar, also known as Ruby Sulphur or Ruby of Arsenic, is a toxic arsenic sulfide mineral that crystallizes in the form of grains, tabular crystals, and masses. The color can range from a bright red, to a soft yellow. Over time, when exposed to light, Realgar loses its pigment and changes form into another mineral known as Pararealgar. You will almost always find Orpiment growing with Realgar. It can also be found alongside Quartz, Calcite, Barite, and Galena. The name Realgar comes from the Arabic word “rahj al-gahr” meaning “powder of the mine” and was first recorded in the 1390s. Realgar can be found in gold, silver, and lead deposits in Hungary, the Czech Republic, Germany, Peru, and the U.S.A.

Realgar has energies capable of igniting your drive, passion, and creativity. It is the perfect stone for any artist or musician that tends to struggle with writer's block or creative fatigue. Adding this stone into your workplace or meditation routine can directly result in a newfound inspiration towards what you love. This empowers you to live a pure life of fulfillment and maintain a day-to-day routine that benefits your soul's desires. You will notice a slow transformational process beginning that opens you up to new energies and opportunities.

Realgar is able to transform into a brand-new mineral while staying true to its chemical self. This is a mirror of your own growth and what you are truly capable of. As you change over time you must always stay true to yourself and what you believe in. Trust your instincts and remind yourself of the personal strength you have within. Realgar assists with these thoughts as it is a great activator of the lower three chakras, a place where our most sacred and intuitive thoughts are housed.
