What is it: This is a naturally occuring glow in the dark gemstone. The natural raw aragonite is grounded up with added color then is re-formed into beads so that it won't fade or bleed. While charging the aragonite in light will make the beads glow brighter, if it is left in sun for a prolonged period of time it may fade eventually. Aragonite is a carbonate mineral, one of the three most common naturally occurring crystal forms of calcium carbonate. It is formed by biological and physical processes, including precipitation from marine and freshwater environments.
History: Aragonite was named in 1790 after the Spanish province of Aragon. Certain mollusks' shell, such as abalone, are actually made of aragonite, which gives a luster known as mother-of-pearl. Many fossil shells now composed of calcite were originally formed of aragonite. These fossils have lost their original pearly luster.
Metaphysical Properties: Aragonite is believed to be a grounding stone. Considered to have the power to combat anger, accelerate learning process, promote patience, discipline, reliability, and encourage acceptance.
Because gemstones are natural materials, appearances may vary from bead to bead
