Happy Tuesday from Gem Steady! Time is just flying by this
year; I can’t believe Valentine’s Day is this Friday! This week we’ll be
discussing one of the most unique gems in the world. The beautiful gem can be
found in a number of colors and an unlimited combination of colors making each
stone unique. This week’s post will be focusing on the fabulous Fluorite!
Without further adieu let’s jump right into what everyone’s
interested in, this gem’s amazing healing ability! Fluorite can help you
establish a positive energy by absorbing and neutralizing negative vibrations. Fluorite
is widely believed to have a calming effect on your body. It is also associated
with the Fourth Chakra, or the Heart Chakra.
It is no surprise that this amazing gem is known to some as
the Genius Stone. Fluorite can help to increase your concentration and assist
you in decision-making. Fluorite can also assist in creating an opening for the
powers of other stones to affect you. It is also used in meditation because it
helps to energize the body and raises the power of your concentration. Fluorite
is also believed to aid in joint pain caused by arthritis.
This awesome gem was named in 1797 by Carlo Antonio Galeani
Napione after the Latin word fluere, which means to flow. Additionally, even
the term fluorescence comes from Fluorite because it often exhibits the effect.
The element of fluorine is also derived from Fluorite, which is one of the
major sources for the element. Fluorite can be found around the world in a
number of countries including Canada, America, Peru, England, China, Thailand,
and South Africa.
Fluorite has a huge range of possible colors including blue,
pink, purple, green and yellow. In fact, the ancient Egyptians used Fluorite to
carve some of their statues. Additionally, they would even create some scarabs
out of Fluorite. Further to the east, the Chinese have been using Fluorite to
create carvings for centuries.
One of the most interesting parts of this gem’s history
occurred around the 18th Century when it was ground into a power and
mixed with water to relieve some of the symptoms of kidney disease. Another
interesting aspect of Fluorite’s history occurred much earlier in ancient Rome.
They used to believe that drinking alcohol from cups carved out of Fluorite
would prevent drunkenness.
