Shimmering Purple Anhydrite Blue Calcite & Epidote Freeform (M9156)

SOLD!

Purple anhydrite is not an easy 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.

A few special specimens of purple anhydrite have the inclusion of blue calcite. There is an interesting dynamic of energy as this freeform is especially soothing for frayed nerves, helping to balance nervous energy into calmer more focused energy.

The freeform measures 1.9" x 1.5" x 1" and weighs 3.2 oz.

Anhydrite is the general term for the calcium based minerals that do not contain water. It can be clear, grey, blue, white and sometimes shades of purple. The blue variety is well known as angelite. Anhydrite is part of the gypsum family which includes the hydrated form (with water) known as selenite. Members of this family of minerals are excellent for moving energy and removing negativity. Anhydrite helps one through periods of change and acceptance of traveling in new directions. On a physical level anhydrite is said to reduce water retention and swelling.
