The shimmering is beuatiful on this calcite cluster! 💫
The effect seen in calcite clusters is primarily due to birefringence, the phenomenon where a ray of light is split into two rays with different speeds and angles of refraction as it passes through the crystal. This splitting and refraction cause a "double image" effect when looking through the crystal and can also create a shimmering or sparkling appearance, especially in clusters with well-formed, reflective faces. Additionally, the presence of other minerals like pyrite or chalcopyrite within the calcite can enhance this shimmering effect with their own reflective properties.

So, IG will not be allowing live videos for accounts with less than 1k followers.
So, when I have a live sale, it will now be on fb.
Up yours IG, either way a 16yr old, and under will find a way to post a video to their feed.
Your regulations, really don't make sense! 🤦‍♀️
Social media bo****ks!

Satin Spar vs. Selenite: Are They the Same? Not Quite.

If you've ever picked up a beautiful, glowing white wand or tower labeled “Selenite,” chances are you’re actually holding Satin Spar. Confused? You’re not alone. These two crystal cousins are often mistaken for each other — and even sold under the same name — but they’re not exactly the same thing.

Let’s clear the air (and the energy) and explore what sets them apart.

✧ The Crystal Connection: A Shared Family

Both Satin Spar and Selenite belong to the gypsum family, a soft and delicate mineral group known for its calming and cleansing properties. They share the same chemical composition (calcium sulfate dihydrate), but their crystal structure and appearance are where the magic (and difference) lies.

🌙 Satin Spar: The Silky Glow

Appearance: Satin Spar is fibrous, opaque to translucent, and often shaped into rods, towers, wands, or spheres. It has a beautiful silky sheen or chatoyancy that almost shimmers when you move it in the light.

Texture: Smooth and soft to the touch, often with visible fine striations running along its length.

Common Use: Most "Selenite" wands, bowls, and charging plates are actually Satin Spar due to its durability and polishability.

🌕 Selenite: The True Transparent Beauty

Appearance: True Selenite is transparent to translucent with a glassy or icy look. It's usually found in flat, plate-like formations or as large natural sheets.

Texture: More fragile and can cleave or flake easily. It’s not often carved into shapes because of its delicate nature.

Rarity: True Selenite is less common in the commercial market and tends to be a collector's piece.

🧘‍♀️ Energy and Metaphysical Properties

Energetically, both crystals are prized for their cleansing, high-vibration energy. They’re known to:

Clear stagnant or negative energy

Cleanse and charge other crystals

Promote peace, clarity, and spiritual connection

Satin Spar is perfect for everyday use and practical energy work — it’s durable and easy to carry or use in crystal grids. True Selenite is a sacred and powerful stone often reserved for deeper spiritual practices or display.
