I don’t know about you, but this is a new one for
me. Although technically classified as a
mineral, Sillimanite can be found in gemstone quality. Sillimanite has been found in a variety of
colors from colorless
to gray-white, yellowish, brownish and bluish but is rarely transparent. It is
primarily used as an industrial mineral in the manufacture of
furnaces, ovens, ceramics; and glass.
Native Americans used Sillimanite in the making of tools.
Sillimanite aligns ones
energies allowing for keen focus and concentration in areas of interest. It assists one with tasks that can be
overwhelming and seemingly impossible to complete. Since it’s taken me over 7 years to complete
this 1 year project, this would have been a good stone to start with.
The vibe emerging from this
stone encourage feelings of euphoria and its energy can make you feel good to
be alive!
The
Sillimanite energy can be helpful to reduce stress and depression and can boost
feelings of confidence and hope. When worn correctly, it is
said to help alleviate problems with glaucoma, cataracts and vision problems
such as near or far-sightedness.
The addition of Sillimanite
to my necklace will ensure that it doesn’t take another year to complete this
blog.
Delaware
recognized Sillimanite as the official state mineral
in 1977.
