Phenacite is a rare form of beryllium silicate that grows as wand or disk shaped crystals ranging in color from golden yellow to gray or clear. A powerful crystal for healing or magic, Phenacite is believed to have an uplifting and transformative effect on the human spirit.

Phenacite is often used in magic and meditation to raise your awareness of yourself - your powers, your special gifts and your unique beauty - so that you can use these gifts to better yourself and improve your world. Phenacite is an excellent stone for anyone who has high ideals and is working hard to bring their everyday life into line with their spiritual aspirations. The crystal is said to help us learn how to 'walk our talk' and live the type of life that we know in our hearts to be right.

To some, Phenacite is considered a stone of initiation. It is helpful to anyone who is going through changes in their life, especially the rites of passage from childhood to adulthood, Maiden to Mother or Mother to Crone. It makes a lovely and meaningful gift for a wedding or Handfasting, graduation or any 'milestone' birthday when a person reaches a significant age, such as 18, 21 or 40.
