This gorgeous and rare crystal is Watermelon Tourmaline. As a group tourmalines were discovered in the Unites States in the 1800’s. Watermelon Tourmaline was first found in a quarry in Maine in 1902. From what I have been able to piece together it was named by Naturalist George Robely Howe. Aside from the United Stated, Watermelon Tourmaline can be found in Brazil and Madagascar. On the MOHS scale it has a hardness of 7 to 7.5. Because of its unusual color banding and rareness this crystal can be quite expensive. Some pieces can be thousands of dollars.
Being pink and green this gorgeous crystal is all about the heart and the Heart Chakra. Watermelon Tourmaline soothes all areas related to the heart on both a physical level and at the Chakra Center helping to clear blocks and balance the Heart Chakra with both color frequencies.
Some of the other characteristics of this crystal are:
- Awakens and attracts love.
- Brings an appreciation for nature.
- Calms emotional stress, fear and anger.
- Invites compassion.
- Opens the heart to unconditional love in both relationships and for the earth.
