Apatite Sphere Bracelet 3 mm Faceted

Apatite is a calcium phosphate mineral (Ca₅(PO₄)₃(F,Cl,OH)) with a Mohs hardness of 5. The name comes from the Greek "apate" (deception), as it was often confused with aquamarine, turquoise, or tourmaline due to its variety of colors. Blue to turquoise apatite is particularly prized. The faceted cut refracts light and gives the delicate 3 mm beads a softly sparkling luster. Significant deposits: Brazil, Madagascar, Mexico, Myanmar, Russia.

Significance in crystal healing

Apatite is considered a stone of motivation and inspiration. It is said to promote drive, energy, and zest for life, as well as support creativity, concentration, and mental clarity. It is believed to help pursue goals with focus, overcome procrastination, and strengthen self-confidence. It is associated with the throat chakra and the brow chakra (third eye). In crystal healing, it is also said to have a supportive effect on bones, teeth, and metabolism. These attributions are based on traditional lore and are not scientifically proven. They do not replace medical treatment.
