This enchanting Lepidolite is known as a stone of transition helping individuals through challenging times by inducing change gently. Its historical significance dates back to the 18th century where it was first discovered near Rožná deposit in Western Moravia. It gets its beautiful color from trace amounts of manganese which give it its pink to purple hue.
The name 'Lepidolite' comes from two Greek words meaning "scale" due to its scaly appearance caused by flakes of lithium. This unique feature makes each piece truly one-of-a-kind!
In addition to being used metaphysically for healing purposes such as aiding sleep disorders or reducing anxiety levels, this gem can also be used practically within everyday life – think home decor pieces or jewelry accessories!
