Shimmering Purple Anhydrite & Green Epidote Sphere (M11280)

SOLD!

Honestly it has been years since we’ve seen purple anhydrite, it’s not easy to find. We were delighted to find an array of polished forms including spheres, polished freeforms, and palm stones in this beautiful and rare mineral. Anhydrite literally means “without water” and chemically is related to angelite. The energy however is quite different, where angelite is soft and serene the purple anhydrite is much livelier, picking you up, yet not buzzing you off the planet. Many of the pieces have unusual combinations of minerals, including blue calcite, orange feldspar, black tourmaline and deep green epidote. Pieces with calcite help one keep balance on all levels especially the physical, smoothing energy to a nice even level over all chakras and the orange feldspar adds a depth emotionally balancing energy. Pieces with epidote help you break through blockages to enhance your spiritual growth, while pieces with black tourmaline keep you clear of negative energies while you work. These beautiful pieces are from Madagascar.

The deep green of epidote accents lovely hues of purple anhydrite in this lovely sphere. There appears to be a small amount of black tourmaline hiding within the patches of epidote too.

The sphere measures 1.5" in diameter and weighs 4.4 oz.

Anhydrite facilitates strength on the physical plane and allows one to understand that the physical body is, in fact, transient. It aids in acceptance of both that which has past leaving the beauty of memories and that which may come tomorrow. It has also been used to help one develop stamina. It enhances understanding and communication.

Epidote is a stone of increase. Epidote has a tendency to increase anything it touches, whether the thing it touches is energy or a material object. It is a stone that enhances emotional and spiritual growth. It cleanses repressed emotions once and for all. It opens the way for those who have denied spiritual growth, and those drawn to epidote are being rocked forcefully into spiritual awakening. Epidote also clears the emotional body aura. It stimulates perception, participation and interaction as well as personal power. It also dispels criticalness and close-mindedness. Epidote is also said to promote patience. In the physical realm, it is used to stimulate the immune system, aid digestion, support all healing, and stop panic attacks.
