We can trace the existence of Botswana agate stone back around 5,000 years to the Sumerian people in Mesopotamia. Sumer is a fairly dry and arid region of the Middle East where there was little rain, located in ancient Mesopotamia. This region is crossed by 2 rivers, the Tigris and the Euphrates.
Thus, many peoples settled and developed agriculture, founded societies, created writing. During ancient times, the Assyrians, Sumerians and Phoenicians used Botswana agate stone for many decorative objects. At that time, artisans worked this type of agate to make magnificent arabesques and splendid embellishment pieces.
The most sought after pieces were those that had the shape of an eye drawn on them. Indeed, it is said, through certain writings, that they allowed their owners to be protected from injuries and bad vibes.
Numerous traces of this Botswana agate among the Egyptians have been discovered in the form of amulets. The sacred amulets were shaped like scarabs and had the power to give strength and allow a long life, protected from disease. They were worn by warriors in this form or as bracelets.
In its native lands in Africa, Botswana agate has been used for thousands of years. It is used in fertility rituals: it stimulates it and brings sexual vitality. It is reduced to powder in order to be mixed in beverages which must guarantee rigorous and healthy offspring. This stone is also offered to the gods in order to obtain prosperous and abundant harvests. In Africa too, stones with the design of an eye on them are particularly sought after and serve as a good luck charm. (Please note, we strongly advise against any kind of elixir with stones).
Moreover, in the Middle East, almost the same powers were attributed to these agates. These stones with the design of an eye also had a protective quality. At the same time, they also served as an offering to the gods to obtain an abundance of harvests or to protect against diseases.
The Botswana agate stone is named because it comes from Botswana, a country in southern Africa, neighboring the Kalahari Desert. We can point out that nowadays it is one of the only deposits where we can find this type of agate.
Regarding the name “agate”, it comes from a river called “Achates” in Sicily where the first types of agate were discovered.
Botswana agate is a stone with shades of gray and brown, which sometimes has concentric bands of various colors. For millennia and in various populations, it has been a symbol of prosperity, abundance and protection. However, it is a very little-known variety of agate.
In lithotherapy, Botswana agate allows, on a psychological and emotional level, to be very optimistic, to believe in the future. It provides great control over stress and anxiety and therefore restores joy of life and cheerfulness to its wearer.
Thus, it boosts morale, because it calms the mind and balances it. This therefore reduces feelings of sadness and despondency. At the same time, it makes it easier to fall asleep and produces quality sleep. This stone, very soft to the touch, is extremely effective on self-esteem: it helps us love ourselves and accept ourselves as we are.
Calmed, confident, and rested, the wearer of the Botswana agate stone can make good resolutions and keep them thanks to the energies released by this stone. It is very motivating and helps to find solutions to problems rather than enduring them.
A few stones placed here and there in your home help neutralize bad vibes and negative energies. This operation will purify your home and bring a sweetness to life.
