The Serpentine stone is quite interesting. It is called the stone that aids in personal growth. It is analogous to a snake shedding the old patterns and embracing new beginnings. Additionally, Serpentine is believed to possess healing properties, as well as being a protective stone as a shield against evil, bad omens, and dark magic. Also it is believed to bring inner peace, protecting against negative energy.
