Stand not included. History The Santa Eualalia Mine in Chihuahua, Mexico, is a working mine known for its extraordinary crystals. Naica is a lead, zinc and silver mine in which large voids have been found, containing crystals of Selenite (gypsum) as large as four feet in diameter and 50 feet long. The Naica mine was first discovered by early prospectors in 1794 south of Chihuahua City. The cavern was discovered while miners were drilling through the Naica fault. The Cave of Swords is another chamber in the Naica Mine, containing similar large crystals. They struck a vein of silver at the base of a range of hills called Naica by the Tarahumara Indians. From the time of that discovery, until around 1900, the primary interest was silver and gold. Around 1900, large-scale mining began as zinc and lead became more valuable. During the Mexican Revolution, the mine produced a great deal of wealth. During this time, revolutionary troops entered the town and demanded money from the owners. One of them was assassinated when he refused to pay, causing the mine to shut down from 1911 to 1922. Just before the mine was closed, the famous Cave of Swords was discovered at a depth of 400 feet. Due to the incredible crystals, the cave was preserved. Selenite crystals were appreciated by Ancient Greeks who named the transparent or translucent white gypsum crystals selenite,which means moon in Greek. The milky, pearly gypsum almost glows, making it look similar to the moon. They actually made windows out of selenite mineral rocks to let in the light so they could see more clearly.BirthstoneTaurus 20th April - 20th May MineralogyFormula:CaSO4 · 2H2O Lustre:Vitreous The name 'selenite' is mostly synonymous with gypsum but has been used historically to describe the transparent variety, as opposed to satin spar gypsum for the fibrous variety and alabaster for the fine-grained massive form. This distant cousin of calcite, selenite belongs to the Satin-Spar crystal family along with Aragonite. Selenite (CaSO4·2H2O) is a hydrous calcium sulfate, as it is composed of oxygen, sulfur, hydrogen, calcium and water. Selenite has been found in a variety of environments and geological locations and growing in different forms Found floating in beds of clay not attached to any type of matrix or host stone. One of the most beautiful Selenite formations in the world is the Cave of Swords in Chihuahua Mexico. Over 97 million years ago water began seeping through ancient limestone formations dissolving the sulfide ores within producing a sulfuric acid. The water also absorbed large amounts of calcium and as this reacted with oxygen and hydrogen, Selenite "swords" or "wands" began growing. Specimens from the Cave of Swords are some of the clearest and largest in the world. Metaphysical Associated with the Greek Goddess Selene, Selenite contains feminine energy and is often used to connect and commune with the Divine, especially goddess energy. Selenite’s high vibrational energy fills our being and all aspects of our lives with the pure love and light of the Divine Source. It provides clarity of mind, and enhances awareness of self and surroundings. Selenite as a crystal is divinely intelligent and it magnifies many-fold what is placed on it. Selenite mineral rock encourages spiritual healing by opening your mind to let you see your true self, in keeping with selenite meaning. Selenite stone facilitates access to memories and gifts that you may have had in a past life. This realization will help you understand your higher purpose in this life and help you avoid making the same mistakes you may have made in a past incarnation. Your true self and spiritual perspective may be revealed to you as higher realms are revealed. It is known as an “emotional cleanser” for the mind, body, spirit and outer environment. It has one of the finest and highest spiritual vibrations and is often used at the Crown Chakra for meditation, angelic consciousness, channeling and the highest wisdom. Selenite is a crystal that complements everything and instills deep peace and tranquility. It brings mental clarity, judgment, insight and is very calming to the nerves. Feng Shui Use this stone in the Center area for health, balance and stability. Especially good in the Children area and Helpful People area of your home or office.
