Chrysoberyl

The extremely rare colour-change gem Alexandrite is a Chromium rich variety of Chrysoberyl. Despite the naming similarity, and the presence of Beryllium, it is not a variety of the more commonly known Beryl crystal, who's colour variants include Aquamarine, Emerald and Morganite. It has a very high specific gravity, making it an extremely heavy crystal for its size. Chatoyant Chrysoberyl is the gemstone which is most commonly given the name of Cat's Eye, due to the presence of tiny fibres within the crystal.

Chrysoberyl stimulates your ability to learn new things and to clear and align the chakras. It can help to transform negative energies into positive ones, making it a powerful crystal for promoting emotional well-being. Chrysoberyl is also considered to be a strong abundance and prosperity crystal, inspiring its users to pursue their goals and achieve success. This crystal is said to inspire individuals to be the best version of themselves, supporting personal growth and self-improvement.
