Benitoite is an extremely rare gemstone that has only been found in gem quality at the California State Gem Mine in central California. It is one of the few gem mines open to the public in CA. It glows brightly under UV light, which is how the crystals are found - the ore is cleaned and examined in a blacklight room.

Benitoite is a strongly spiritual stone with a high vibration that can help individuals develop their psychic abilities. It can also aid with astral travel work and opens up communication with the spiritual realm. Benitoite has the ability to stimulate Third Eye gifts, allowing for a greater understanding of one's spiritual path. This stone can bring clarity and insight, making it an excellent tool for spiritual growth and exploration.
