Multiple colors can be found in a single crystal, and it has the characteristic of changing color when exposed to sunlight or heat, while returning to normal at night.

Mythology

The name derives from the Latin fluere, "to flow," and it has been known as "flowing spath" since the mid-18th century: it was not considered a true mineral, in fact, as it was classified in the category of spaths, which are minerals that cleave easily (from the German spalten, "to split"), and the adjective fluido was added because its brilliant appearance reminded people of molten glass. It is no coincidence that fluorite, along with quartz and colored glass, was used as a substitute for precious stones as far back as ancient Greece.

When exposed to ultraviolet rays, it exhibits the phenomenon of fluorescence, which is precisely where the material takes its name.

Effect on the body

Fluorite stimulates the regeneration of the skin and mucous membranes, especially regarding the respiratory tract and lungs. It aids the absorption of calcium and therefore strengthens the teeth and bones. It is indicated for joint problems and general stiffness, including those related to arthritis. It alleviates discomfort in cases of psychosomatic allergies and promotes the activity of the nervous system, particularly the brain. Useful for those with memory problems, disorientation, and lack of concentration.

Effect on the psyche

Fluorite promotes freedom of thought and encourages individuals not to compromise or allow external influences to affect the fulfillment of their lives. It helps restructure one's life and achieve a state of autonomy and emotional stability, instilling confidence and clearing mental confusion.

It promotes learning by stimulating the perception of relationships between things and the processing of information, thus the subject's logical-cognitive ability. The ability to align the body with the mind and bring the mind into harmony with the spirit is the true talent of this stone: fluorite encourages channeling the energies of meditation and prayer on the earthly plane.

It stimulates creativity and imagination. It facilitates contact with one's subconscious and makes repressed feelings conscious by gradually bringing them to light. It is useful for overcoming addictions, obsessions, and limiting thought and behavior patterns.

It develops self-discipline and a sense of order, concentration, and grounding while maintaining the person's vital energy at a high level of openness. Self-discipline is essential for controlling and correcting one's thoughts, actions, and words, and improving oneself. It is the inner strength needed to shape one's life as desired.

How to use fluorite

Fluorite can be cleansed after use under running water. To achieve lasting effects on the spiritual plane, it is recommended to always carry fluorite in close contact with the skin or apply it to the affected area for physical therapy. To strengthen the sense of order, groups of fluorite crystals can be placed in the environment: their presence reminds the mind to stay focused and helps organize work.

During meditation, a fluorite pyramid is useful for descending deeper into oneself in search of balance between the dimensions of being, allowing one to see the reality behind the illusion, the eternal behind the transitory, and the truth beyond confusion.
