K2 is a rare stone. It connects to the third eye and opens the highest levels of consciousness, allowing one to receive guidance from higher dimensions. This stone helps you control your emotions by centering and balancing your mind, body, and spirit. K2 promotes group harmony and deepens emotional ties with friends and family. It is named for the mountain foothills it was discovered on, which borders on Pakistan and China.
