Pectolite Mineral

Hey dear Hive friends, first of all I would like to wish you all a pleasant day and hope you are all well and you were able to have one or two positive experiences today! Today I would like to wish you a pleasant day and hope you are all well.

The mineral that can be seen here bears the name Pectolite and it is a rare mineral first found by the mineralogist Franz von Kobell (1803 - 1882). The name is derived from the Greek of the words pektos for solidified and lithos for stone and the primary color of the mineral is white and other shades are usually due to admixtures with other minerals and there are also gray, green, or blue specimens. It is a worldwide very common mineral being caused by volcanic activities under the influence of temperatures and is usually found in cavities of rocks. The appearance of the crystals is often needle-shaped and in this specimen it has a radiant or spherical appearance and the shine can vary greatly and can often be transparent. Among the most important places of discovery are France, Canada, USA, Brazil or Morocco and sometimes it is processed into jewelry, but usually it is not of industrial interest due to its rarity.

From a symbolic point of view, pectolite is often associated with wisdom and according to legends, the mineral carries the power of water and is also associated with the lost city of Atlantis and it was already used in ancient Egypt and was also known in the Middle Ages. It is also associated with the planet Neptune and is often associated with positive qualities and can help to improve the general self-balance and is also sold from time to time as a healing stone. It can provide inner peace and improve self-confidence and from a spiritual point of view it can help to connect with the higher self and increase the vibrations and in addition it can have an influence on the third eye as well as the chakra system. As always, it is important to know here that this is alternative medicine and you should always ask your trusted doctor or pharmacist in case of illness about the right medicine and dosage!
