{"product_id":"epidote-epidote-with-quartz-from-pakistan","title":"Epidote - Epidote with Quartz from Pakistan","description":"\u003cp\u003eInstead of being a massive block of dense crystals,these two specimens offer beautiful crystal associations, featuring epidote growing in combination with quartz, which is the large, sharp, clear to smoky mineral forming the main structure.\u003cbr\u003eThe bright pistachio-green, sponge-like coating covering on specimen 4 is a dense microcrystalline or fibrous carpet of tiny epidote needles. It forms a rough crust (often called an epidote \"vug\" or \"pocket lining\") blanketing the underlying crystal cluster.\u003cbr\u003eSpecimen 5 features gorgeous, gemmy, clear crystals surrounded by a neat border of fuzzy, dark olive-green to pistachio-green epidote needles. You can also spot tiny individual shards and sprays of green epidote needles sitting directly on the flat crystal faces.  These combined \"Epidote on Quartz\" pieces from Alpine-style clefts (very common in regions like Pakistan) are highly sought after because the sharp contrast between the glass-clear crystals and the incredibly aestethic deep green, velvety epidote.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEpidote is widely regarded as a stone of amplification, manifestation, and personal growth.  The word epidote comes from the Greek word epidosis, meaning \"increase\". In crystal healing practices, it is believed to act as an energetic mirror.\u003cbr\u003eEpidote is viewed as a powerful manifestation stone. Rather than just attracting external luck, it is thought to multiply whatever energy you are already putting out into the world (whether that is optimism, creativity, or focus).\u003cbr\u003eWith its rich green color, epidote is associated with the heart chakra. It is used in meditation to help clear emotional blockages, process past trauma, and replace a negative mindset with self-awareness.\u003cbr\u003eIt is frequently recommended for individuals who feel stuck in repetitive habits or negative thought patterns, as it is believed to inspire the motivation needed to make lasting changes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's a highly potent combination when epidote grows alongside or inside clear quartz.  \u003cbr\u003eClear quartz is considered the \"master amplifier\" in metaphysics. When paired with epidote (which is already an amplification stone), the quartz is believed to exponentially magnify the epidote's manifestation and healing properties.  While pure epidote works deeply on an emotional level, the addition of quartz is said to bring intense focus, clearing away confusion and helping you maintain the stamina needed to achieve complex goals.  This specific visual combination—resembling a lush forest growing through ice—may deepen grounding connections to nature and to help access higher spiritual awareness during meditation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe crystals you see here are the exact crystals you will receive.  All merchandise ships from Alexandria, Virginia, USA, via USPS Ground Advantage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter taking a look at the catalog of crystals here on my site, you have the option to set up a free  appointment on Zoom or Facetime to select your preferred type of crystal where I can provide as much of a personal session as possible.  Contact me through this site :) \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Heman Gems","offers":[{"title":"#4 - 36g  1.8x1.4x.8 Inches","offer_id":67785520021664,"sku":null,"price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"#5 - 16g  1.7x.8x.6 Inches","offer_id":67785520054432,"sku":null,"price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1036\/5865\/1808\/files\/IMG_4920.jpg?v=1792761162","url":"https:\/\/streoneandbagatto.com\/products\/epidote-epidote-with-quartz-from-pakistan","provider":"Streone \u0026 Bagatto, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
