Stilbite, a member of the Zeolite family often found alongside Apophyllite, was first discovered in 1797 in India. Its name originates from the Greek word ‘Stilbein,’ meaning glitter or shine, aptly reflecting its mesmerising appearance. With delicate peachy-orange hues and intricate growth patterns, Stilbite captivates the observer, revealing new wonders with each gaze. Despite its softness, with a Mohs Scale Hardness of 3.5 - 4, Stilbite enchants with its soothing energy, making it a cherished crystal for spiritual and healing practices.

The Spiritual Vibes

The energy of Stilbite emanates loving vibrations, gently nurturing the user and facilitating healing with compassion, particularly for past traumas. It is favoured for enhancing dream recall, promoting restful sleep, and amplifying the effectiveness of Reiki practices. Healers rely on Stilbite to strengthen the connection between client and practitioner, providing protection against psychic attacks during sessions.

Stilbite's Favourite Pairing Crystals

To harness the transformative properties of Stilbite, pair it with Green Aventurine for calming energies or with Larvikite for healing past traumas and shadow work. Whether seeking emotional healing, spiritual guidance, or protection, Stilbite offers a gentle embrace and a pathway to inner peace and serenity.
