"Actinolite is an immensely important tool!  It is a phenomenal shielding device and expands the energy bodies.  This expansion provides for a connection to “All That Is” and facilitates the “brotherhood” of all.  Actinolite provides a familiarity with all of those who one encounters, withholding all aspects of that which cause the familiar smile, action or being, to appear objectionable.  By focusing this mineral on an unwanted condition, lessening is both facilitated and enhanced."
