fire agate

If you have ever seen fiery agate live, you will never forget this unique beauty and bright play of colors. Almost all jewelers agree that this amazing mineral is truly a masterpiece of nature. It is considered one of the rarest and most popular varieties of agate and is valued not only for its unique shade, but for its special energy properties.

Description

Fire agate is a mineral that, like its counterparts, has a layered structure. But its layers are nothing but small bubbles of chalcedony, the surface of which is covered with iron oxide - goethite. When sunlight passes through the structure of the stone, it overcomes all these bubbles and scatters, reflecting a wide variety of colors. This effect is called light interference. In other words, the shade of the gem resembles a drop of gasoline that has fallen on the surface of clean water. It really shines with all the colors of the rainbow, creating unique patterns and bright stains. It should be noted that still the prevailing shades are brown and dirty orange. But the interference zone can be painted in a variety of color variations. The rarest combinations in fire agate are green with red and purple with turquoise. Such minerals are very rare, and often their cost exceeds the usual price tag.

The mineral is quite difficult to process, not only due to its high hardness, but also due to its special structure. The jeweler has to do the finest work so as not to damage the bubbles of chalcedony and not to disturb the natural effect of refraction of sunlight. The same applies to polishing. Processing it, in fact, is not difficult, but one awkward movement and all the beauty will be broken. As a rule, when creating jewelry, fire agate is served in the form in which nature created it.

• improves vision;
• promotes cell regeneration;
• normalizes the digestive system;

As for the magical properties, the gem was used hundreds of years ago as an attribute in witchcraft rituals to achieve certain goals. For example, with the help of a stone, you can become more resilient, courageous and overcome all the troubles on the path of life. In addition, it helps to cope with bad addictions - alcohol, smoking, drugs. It is believed that fire agate increases the owner's sexual energy and sometimes it is even difficult to cope with it. It is for this reason that the stone is not recommended to give to young girls, and even more so to girls. But if you constantly carry a small gem in your inner pocket as a talisman, then it will protect you from any negative impact, including damage, the evil eye, gossip, intrigue, and deceit.

Who suits fire agate according to the sign of the zodiac

Given the special energy of the mineral, it is not suitable for everyone:

Otherwise, this is the most ideal tandem in terms of astronomical compatibility.
2. Gemini should only purchase fire agate if they have decided on their goals in life. Otherwise, he will bring vanity and chaos into the life of Gemini.
