It is said that Stichtite emanates the vibration of love and forgiveness, it promotes compassion, unity and cooperation. It offers protection from negativity by generating a bubble of light energy to shield the wearer.
Did you know that Stichtite is a mineral, a carbonate of chromium and magnesium. Its colour ranges from pink through lilac to a rich purple colour. It is formed as an alteration product of chromite containing serpentine. It occurs in association with barbertonite, chromite and antigorite, containing dark brown or rich green serpentine
Did you know Serpentine is composed of magnesium iron silicate hydroxide that belongs to the Kaolinite-Serpentine group of crystals. Serpentine crystals have their origins in metamorphic alterations of peridotite and pyroxene. Serpentines may also pseudomorphously replace other magnesium silicates. These alterations may be incomplete, causing physical properties of serpentines to vary widely.
