UNAKITE


 

Epidote with feldspar as it is also known, consists of a combination of deformed red jasper and green epidote solidly bound together, thus creating the beautiful pistachio and pink coloring. The splashes of soft peach against a fresh green colored background makes Unakite a much beloved and magical gemstone.

The stone takes it's name from the Greek word epidosis, meaning "growing together", and it is these materials bound together that conveys the meaning that what comes together, belongs together.

Healing Properties:
Healers believe that Unakite's ability to unleash buried emotional pain and to also aid in the body's healing process. 

Since many illness begin as an unhealed trauma to our psyche, letting go of emotions you're clutching to aids the body's tissue in relaxing on a cellular level. This promotes healthier organs, muscles and soft tissue.
