Alexandrite natural raw stone (under white fluorescent light)

This wild fragment of the emerald earth, its jagged edges shield a heart of frozen forest light. Seen under the cool clarity of white fluorescent light, this raw Alexandrite sheds its warm evening cloak and reveals its true "daylight" spirit—a rugged, mossy green that speaks of ancient forests and deep oceanic depths. The green spectrum is the color of life and growth. In its raw state, this stone is thought to act as a powerful "botanical" tonic for the soul, helping to clear away lethargy and injecting fresh energy into the wearer’s spirit. The emerald-teal hue aligns perfectly with the Heart Chakra. Because the stone is raw, its energy is considered "honest" and "unfiltered," helping the wearer to confront and heal emotional wounds with raw courage. While the purple "evening" light of Alexandrite governs intuition, the green "daylight" light governs the mind. It is believed to help the wearer think clearly, solve complex problems, and maintain a calm, logical head during stressful situations. A raw stone is an anchor to the Earth. Keeping this specimen is said to help those who feel "trapped" by technology or city life to reconnect with the wild, grounding energy of the natural world. Known as a stone of luck, the green raw form is often associated with the "seeding" of wealth. It is considered an excellent talisman for those in the early stages of a business or a new creative project, helping them grow their ideas into something brilliant.
