Serpentine is a jade-like mineral widely used in sculptures and jewelry. Chemically, serpentine is not nephrite or jadeite, which are considered true jade grades, but its color and polishability make it visually resemble jade.

Serpentine is particularly popular in modern Chinese decorative objects and is mined mainly in the Liaoning and Heilongjiang provinces. Serpentine ranges in color from light green to olive green, and may have brownish or white streaks. Serpentine has a hardness of about 4–6 on the Mohs scale (1–10).

Meditation with the Infinity Stone

Preparation : Take a light green serpentine stone in your hand or place it on your chest, at the heart. Be careful Make sure your surroundings are calm. Close your eyes and focus on your breathing. Breathe in deeply and slowly out three times.

1. Making the connection: Imagine the stone beginning to radiate a gentle, pale green light. Bring your attention to your heart area and feel that light expand peacefully throughout your chest. Imagine that you are connected to the stone of infinity: gentleness, timelessness, and inner wisdom. Let this connection feel like a quiet certainty in your heart.
   
   
2. Dimensions of Time: Now imagine that you are standing in an infinite space where three currents flow: past, present and future. You see them meeting near you, in the point of light on the stone. Let these currents flow into you as feelings, vibrations, memories.
   
   Ask:
   "What do you want to be seen right now from the past?"
   "At what point do I need compassion for myself?"
   
   Do not try to respond verbally, but allow images, feelings, or silence to emerge. Trust that whatever appears, appears with intention.
   
   
3. Soul Rest : Imagine that the light of the stone is guiding you to a state you could call soul rest – a place without demands, roles, or time. Settle into that space as if you were at home. In this space, you can encounter an emotion, memory, or experience that needs to be processed.
   
   Ask:
   "What do I want to forgive?"
   "What am I willing to let go of?"
   
   Allow forgiveness to arise from a space where nothing is forced.
   
   
4. Decision and Return to the Moment : Gradually return to awareness of your own body. Thank the stone silently within yourself. Imagine how its energy merges with the wisdom of your heart and carries you on.

Take a few more deep breaths. Open your eyes when you are ready. Write down the images that arose during the meditation.
