More Information About Chrysocolla:
Chrysocolla enhances abundance in all areas of your life, but it is especially helpful for calling in an abundance of new opportunities. What opportunities has the universe presented to you? Chrysocolla helps you recognize these and also nudges you to make positive transformations (especially if you fear you may fail in your new pursuits).
Chrysocolla’s color and markings can make it confusing to identify; some greener pieces look like Malachite, while bluer ones may resemble Turquoise. It’s a soft mineral that often intergrows with harder substances, especially Quartz. Chrysocolla doesn’t often form crystals of its own, but its color and markings make it quite beautiful, even in its massive form. The name Chrysocolla is Greek for “gold glue,” going back to the time when the copper that produces its bright appearance was used for solder. It’s one of a group of brightly colored minerals — along with Turquoise, Malachite, Azurite — that indicates the presence of copper veins.
Safety note: Since chrysocolla contains copper, please don’t use it to make crystal elixirs or gem waters using the direct method of preparation.
