“Bismuth is a silver colored heavy metal in nature which cannot express its crystalline structure without recrystallization help from humans (ie lab assisted). Bismuth does not crystallize naturally, because it is usually too crowded by host rock to form as a crystal."

Rainbow colored Bismuth is excellent tool to use for focus, visualization and shamanic journeying. It can also raise awareness (meditation, journeying, etc) while providing grounding at the same time.

Bismuth relieves feelings of lonliness or isolation. It is a stone of transformation and change, helping to adapt with calm assurance. Bismuth encourages cohesiveness, so would be very helpful in group and/or relationship dynamics.
