🌊 𝔸𝕗𝕣𝕚𝕔𝕒𝕟 𝔸𝕢𝕦𝕒𝕡𝕣𝕒𝕤𝕖 🌊 Say ahoy to one of the only minerals discovered in the 21st century 🏴‍☠️ Aquaprase was discovered in Africa in 2013 by a Greek gemologist/explorer named Yianni Melas. He simply named this new discovery “Aquaprase,” or “blue-green” in Greek. 🌎 Being such a new and minimally-sourced stone, not much has been decided in the way of metaphysical healing. So, I’ve taken it upon myself to delve into this oceanic crystal and explain exactly how it makes me feel 💙 🧐 𝐌𝐲 𝐓𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 🤔 It’s a heavy stone, heavier than expected. But that weight gives you a real sense of comfort; as if you control the weight of the world. You harness the power of oceans and rivers and dive deep into the water-bender inside of you #avatarthelastairbender 💧 Each piece is unique and makes it feel as though you personally own a planet covered in ocean and ice caps. Some have spots of jasper which can be imagined as land. Are there inhabitants? That’s for you to decide. You are in control. When it comes to Aquaprase, you are made to feel like a god. That feeling translates into your everyday life and boosts your confidence like crazy. Everything seems more manageable and easier. The hardest thing you’ll have to do is actually put down the crystal and stop imagining a world of endless water Pokémon. #lapras #squirtle These are so hard to attain but I did manage to get four spheres for tomorrow’s Live Sale. Let me know how they make you feel 🥰 Check out our latest REEL for a video of one of these spheres 💎 ✨ 𝐋𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐒𝐚𝐥𝐞: 𝐒𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐝𝐚𝐲, 𝐉𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝟗𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐭 𝟏𝐩𝐦 𝐄𝐒𝐓 ✨ Love, Stephen 🧜🏻‍♂️ . . . #aquaprase #crystals #rarecrystals #rareminerals #africanminerals #crystalshop #bluecrystals #bluecrystals #iamagod #waterpokemon #imagination #confidencebooster #healingcrystals #metaphysicalhealing #alternativehealing #spiritualityandhealth #crystallearning #helpfultips (at Saratoga Springs, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJy_Zz4BAXn/?igshid=4e9dtq67oxsj

👽 The strange world of pseudomorphs: Chrysocolla after malachite after azurite, an excellent and unusual sequence seen in this striking 3-stage pseudomorph cluster from Luputu Mine, Katanga, DRC. Super cool structure under macro—the bright blue chrysocolla is punctuated occasionally by pops of green malachite, and the delicate needles are the visual hallmark of the original azurite! Specimen available at PhenomenalGems.Etsy.com. 👽#macromonday #macro #macrophotography #mineralworld #pseudomorph #replacement #chrysocolla #malachite #azurite #luputumine #katanga #drc #africanminerals #instacrystals #alienworld #crystalsforsale #mineralsforsale #mineralspecimens #rocksandminerals #phenomenalgems #etsy #etsyshop #etsycrystals
