The chemical composition is (K,Na)Ca₄Si₈O₂₀(F,OH) · 8H₂O. The name comes from the Greek and means \"to leaf off\" – a reference to the fact that the stone flakes off in thin layers under the influence of heat. As a secondary formation, apophyllite forms in cavities of basic volcanic rocks such as basalt or phonolite, often accompanied by zeolites. This specimen comes from India, one of the most well-known deposits for exceptional apophyllite clusters worldwide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMineral class:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sheet silicates (phyllosilicates), apophyllite group\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrystal system:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tetragonal or orthorhombic\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eChemical formula:\u003c\/strong\u003e (K,Na)Ca₄Si₈O₂₀(F,OH) · 8H₂O\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e India\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e approx. 70 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Matte cubic crystals, clear purity, unpolished natural form\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccompanying minerals:\u003c\/strong\u003e Often found together with zeolites\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMeaning and Effect in Crystal Healing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn crystal healing, apophyllite is traditionally considered a stone of clarity and inner expansiveness. Unpolished specimens like this one are said, according to tradition, to embody a pronounced yang energy – the clear, strong, and purposeful. In crystal healing, it is traditionally associated with promoting clarity of thought, directing focus onto the essentials, and supporting a more conscious pursuit of goals. It is also said, according to tradition, to help overcome insecurities and to bring held-back feelings back into expression. As an \"ascension stone,\" it is said to promote calm and serenity as well as support inner balance. \u003cem\u003eNote: The effects of minerals and gemstones are not scientifically proven and do not replace medical treatment.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCare and Storage of Your Apophyllite Specimen\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince apophyllite is sensitive to heat and can flake off in thin layers under the influence of heat, you should not expose the specimen to direct sunlight or excessive warmth.
