Galena shows us how we can make practical changes in our everyday life so that we are in better congruence with our most cherished spiritual beliefs. Galena awakens us to our spiritual life and supports on the long winding path. It helps us to gradually move from the novice to the master. Galena helps us to make peace with the parts of ourselves that make us uncomfortable and shows us how we can heal and integrate these shadow sides. Galena’s energy is fantastic in grids meant to heal our Mother Earth and is also useful for protection from harmful environmental energies, such as EMF. It is also one of the very best stones to work with when studying alchemy in any form.

Galena reduces emotional over-reactions and helps us behave more sensibly. It is a strong protector for anyone who gets overwhelmed by negative energies. Galena provides us with strength, courage, and fortitude so that we can face difficult things head on. Galena invites us to take more personal responsibility for ourselves and to be wary of anyone who tries to dictate what we should think or how we should feel. Galena reminds us that we have a good mind and a good heart, capable of drawing its own conclusions. Galena helps us to be more comfortable with complexity and more willing to ask questions. It is an excellent ally when we want to do deep personal work, exploring our baggage and issues. Galena helps us to figure out whether or not our “stories” about ourselves, our past and others, are actually true. If they aren’t true, this crystal helps us to release those outdated lies with ease. Galena helps us to reclaim our true power and to prioritize our own self-care.
Mental Healing Properties
Galena inspires a great love for Truth and is an exceptionally practical and grounding stone. It encourages logical, holistic, and scientific modes of thinking. It teaches us to take our beliefs and assumptions as a starting point, rather than an end point. It pushes us to think critically, to actively experiment and to make conclusions based on good evidence. Galena reminds us that each conclusion is in fact a new starting point, and we should always be striving for greater understanding. Galena encourages us to have “flexible ideas” rather than “firm beliefs” and to remember that ideas can and should evolve as new information becomes available. Galena dissolves limiting assumptions and helps to open the mind to intriguing possibilities. It is an excellent talisman for all types of scientists and engineers, as well as healers ranging from modern doctors to traditional herbalists.
Physical Healing Properties
Galena is recommended for anyone suffering from cancer, especially those getting chemotherapy. It helps us to stay grounded and calm when life is hard and to always believe that life can change for the better. It helps us to focus on the idea that our body can heal and that the cancer cells can be destroyed forever. Galena asks us to trust good doctors, to seek out second opinions when we need one, and to be open to new treatments. It helps us to put together a solid plan for our healing journey and to gather the people and resources who can help us win our battles. Galena is also a great talisman for anyone who is ready to change their own life. This change can be as simple as changing a small daily habit or as huge as releasing a deadly addition.
