TOURMALINE (BLACK) WITH MUSCOVITE NATURAL CLUSTER

BLACK TOURMALINE

Black tourmaline is a powerful stone of psychic protection that guards against the evil eye. It works by purifying negative energy and transforming it into positive energy. It encourages one to remain grounded, strong, and alert in all situations, and assists in reflecting away directed negative energy or psychic attack.

It is also an excellent stone to help one eliminate negative thoughts, anxieties, anger, and feelings of unworthiness. A true protective ally, particularly good to call upon during challenging times.

MUSCOVITE

Muscovite provides one with reflective qualities so that one can recognise one’s flaws and see them with love and forgiveness. It encourages one to release anger and negative energy.

Muscovite teaches us to trust the Universe to guide us through the learning experiences, which we are here to undertake and to trust that we are exactly where we need to be 'now'.

It also enhances one’s self-confidence and the ability to listen to one’s intuition.

Black Tourmaline forms in granite pegmatites and metamorphic rocks, This iron-rich variety of tourmaline, known mineralogically as schorl, crystallises in the trigonal system and typically occurs as elongated prismatic crystals with characteristic vertical striations along their length.

Black Tourmaline develops during the late-stage crystallisation of granitic melts, where boron-rich fluids facilitate its growth. The crystals often form in association with quartz, feldspar, and mica, and can range from small millimetre-sized specimens to impressive crystals exceeding 30 centimetres in length. The deep black coloration results from high iron content in the crystal structure, though some specimens may show a subtle blue or brownish tint when examined with bright light.
