Apatite
More Info
Apatite belongs to a group of phosphate minerals with high concentrations of hydroxide, fluoride, and chloride ions. The very name apatite means ‘to be misleading’ or ‘to deceive,’ because of its tendency to resemble other minerals.
Throughout history, apatite was thought to be a stone of inspiration and learning, helpful for translating thought into physical manifestations and overcoming fear.

Origin

Physical Properties
Apatite is rarely faceted because of its low rate of 5 on the Mohs scale of hardness. When cut correctly, it is bright, transparent to opaque, and has intense colours (aqua blue, green, white, brown, yellow, purple, violet, gray, pink, and sometimes colourless).
It has a hexagonal crystal system and will dissolve in hydrochloric acid. Apatite is usually found in sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks.
Metaphysical Properties
Used during meditation, Apatite helps its user let go of situations, people, and objects that have become useless in their lives. It aids in achieving a more profound state of reflection and meditation, restoring a clearer thought process.
Apatite stones are used for balancing the yin-yang energies, enhancing psychic abilities, openness to the higher self, aiding to the rising of Kundalini energy, and producing the state of unconditional love.
