Chrysocolla is hydrous copper silicate and
like its cousins Turquoise and
Malachite is found near copper deposits.
Its colors range from blue to green
and are sometimes brown and black. The best
specimens are known also as
gem silica. This form is harder and will
hold a good polish and is generally
clearer brighter in color.
Chrysocolla is linked with tranquility, serenity
and peace. She represents
the water element as manifested in clear,
calm bodies of water such as lakes
and ponds. She embodies the feminine energies
of soft, quiet strength and
deep subconscious wisdom, the moon, the
emotions and the yin energies.
Gem Silica is highest evolved form of the
turquoise color, manifesting the
deep blue color of the ocean waters surrounding
the Hawaiian Islands.
She brings peace to the mind and heart.
Use as cooling stone use to lower fevers,
heal burns, neutralize anger and
calm frazzled nerves.
Astrological Signs of Gemini. Bridge between
Fourth and Fifth chakras.
Chrysocolla is soft stone much like turquoise.
Can be worn as jewelry, but with
care. The Gem Silica form is usually stronger
because it includes quartz. It
will hold a polish better and be stronger
as stone in jewelry.
