Marble
Being soft enough to carve, durable enough to last, and gorgeous to boot, nearly everyone knows marble as the world’s most perfect sculpting stone. But what really sets marble apart from other rocks is what happens when it’s polished. Some say it becomes so velvety and smooth it looks alive, while others swear it emits its own light, as if glowing from within. No wonder Michelangelo and other famous sculptors created their masterpieces from marble. If it’s showing up for you now, it’s likely telling you that something in your life is in need of extra sculpting and polish. If you’re working on a project, keep chipping away until it’s as good as you can make it. Whatever it is you’re working on, you’ll want it to positively glow before sending it out into the world. Or perhaps it’s you yourself who’s in need of a bit of refinement? Polishing yourself up could bring you back to life. Either way, whether yourself or something you’re creating, marble is nudging you to put in the extra effort. You’ll be glad you did!
