Prasiolite-Green Amethyst(?)

My Prasiolite

I think I told you that a few months ago that one of my customers, from out of state, sent me a couple of Gems to use “FOR ME”.
Well, one stood out above and beyond the others. A Large Marquis pale minty green-almost clear-Gem.
I immediately knew that this one was truly meant for me. I also knew exactly what I was going to do with it.
A Necklace with the Gem-which I later learned was a Prasiolite-worked in as a link instead of as an expected pendant.
I have not taken this piece off-except to show it to others up close. I have also sold quite a few of this same Design, but with VERY different Gems-Faceted and Rough.

Well, lately I have been experiencing a burst of creative energy-as well as just energy in general. I wondered if the Prasiolite could have anything to do with that?
Off to one of my Favorite things-GOOGLE
Here is what I found out...

Prasiolite is a naturally occurring form of Quartz, mostly out of Brazil, but also Canada and Poland. Although fairly rare, Mother Nature has given Mankind that ability to “enhance” on Her Creations. By heating Amethyst, we can get Prasiolite-sometimes-and Citrine. This may be why Prasiolite is sometimes mistakenly called “Green Amethyst”-something that I have been guilty of.



Prasiolite Inspires Creativity(Hmmm), Success, Prosperity, and Abundance.
Prasiolite Helps to link ones Spiritual being with your Physical Being.
Prasiolite Fosters a deeper appreciation of self.
Prasiolite, when used in conjunction with other Stones strengthens them.
Prasiolite Transmutes negative energies into positive.

Even if what I had found out was not as good as this, I would not be taking off my Necklace. It just means WAY TOO MUCH to me that they thought to Gift this Gem to me.
