Metaphysical Meaning : The opal is said to be many things including the stone of Hope, the stone of healing, the stone of great achievement and the stone of peace and tranquility for the aura. It is especially noted for its energies in healing emotions. Sleeping with pink opal or holding it while in meditation helps to bring compassion and a gentle resolution of painful memories. Ancient Romans associated opal with hope and good luck. It is said to be the stone of love, but only to faithful lovers. This stone is said to be effective in relieving heaaches and muscle tension. Geology : Pink Opal is a natural gemstone that comes from only one place in the world and that is a place in Peru. This pretty stone does not have the “play of colour” that most people associate with precious opals. For Opal to have the flashes of colour a series of events need to occur during its formation so that the tiny silica spheres that make up Opal have aligned so that the spheres are uniformed and form a dimensional structure grid (imagine how ballbearings would look in a bucket). When there is no alignment of uniform silica spheres it is still considered Opal (or Opalite) but there is no flash of colour and therefore called common Opal.
