Healers recommend using listvenite stone to cope with stressful situations, cure phobias and neuroses. The rare mineral has only recently begun to be used in magic, and therefore its abilities have not been fully studied. There are no contraindications for wearing jewelry with listvenite, because the greenish stone has soft and healing energy. It is important to consult a jeweler when purchasing so as not to purchase a fake.
Listvenite
The unusual material, foliage, resembles marble with its spotted, heterogeneous structure. Depending on the composition, it can have different shades, ranging from ordinary gray to emerald green. Listvenite is widely used in the construction industry; it can act as an ornamental material for creating vases, ashtrays and all kinds of figurines.
The mineral was first discovered in the Urals in 1842 by the German researcher G. Rose. Initially, listvenite received another name - “Nevyansk marble”. Only over time did they begin to name the stone in honor of Mount Listvyannaya, where it was found.
Listvenite is very rarely used to create talismans or amulets. Very little is known about its magical or medicinal properties. There is an opinion that listvenite is capable of attracting gold to its owner.
Researchers have not yet figured out which zodiac sign he belongs to.
What types of listvenite are there?
It is easiest to process a mineral that has brown veins.
Geologists identify the following types of minerals, which are equally valued by practitioners, but differ in structure, composition and color:
- Spotted-striped crystals of a greenish-emerald hue. The color scheme is often determined by muscovite, copper oxide or leaf silicates. However, geologists warn that if the color is due to a high metal content, the jewelry or talisman will soon darken and become grayer.
- Crystals with veins and spots of scarlet and brown colors. The structure of listvenite resembles marble. The characteristics of this type of mineral make it easy to process. Figurines or jewelry are often made from such stone. Iron carbonates give scarlet shades.
- Mottled and veined stones in scarlet and gray colors. The basis of such listvenite is salts and esters of carbonic acid and quartz rocks, which is why it has a high density. Due to iron oxide polyhydrate, pebbles are cast yellow, scarlet and brown, and chlorite is colored greenish.
Lapis
The rich, saturated blue stone lapis has many synonymous names. Most often they talk about it as lapis lazuli, although it also has such names as “heavenly stone”, “Armenian stone”, “Bukhara lapis lazuli”, “lazurite”.
