Large Apophyllite + Stilbite Cluster
Large Apophyllite + Stilbite Cluster
Apophyllite may look a lot like clear quartz, but it differs dramatically. It is a softer stone with a hardness of 5 on Mohs hardness scale. It is thought to be a premier stone for meditation as, energetically, it is believed to help one connect to angelic realms & help one to activate their inner vision or psychic abilities. One of my favorite things I have read about this mineral - "it helps one to realize that perfection is a natural state of being." Stilbite is from the same Zeolite family that apophyllite is from. Said to help one open up & access their inner creativity.
This particular cluster is from India. It is super unique, with a beautiful blend of peachy stilbite with big crystals of of apophyllite. It weighs just over 4lbs! and it measures about 7 x 5 x 3.75 inches.
