Charoite is a rare silicate mineral, first described in 1978 and named for the Chara River. It has been reported only from the Aldan Shield, Sakha Republic, Siberia, Russia. Charoite is very beautiful, and while its color is predominantly purple, it is known to have swirling patterning of black, brown, white and lilac within the stone.
This patterning is caused by inclusions of other minerals, such as white Calcite for example, and will vary from stone to stone. Many of the natural crystals are predominantly purple, and are very beautiful stones.
It is the premier stone to energize and inspire you to be of service to others. Charoite is a beautiful and powerful crystal of the purple ray, and is a stone of transformation.
Charoite is a highly protective stone, and brings the added vibration of ‘being of service’.
The stimulus of this purple stone will assist the process, as it empowers you to merge the energy of the etheric chakras into the depths of your being.
