You’ve uncovered an extraordinarily rare gem. Introducing raspberry-colored beryl. Come with me for a short lesson on the beryls.

The beryl group is essential in medicine and healing. It contains emeralds (greens), aquamarines (blues), morganites (pinks), heliodors (yellows), goshenites (whites) and … the red beryl is called bixbite. This raspberry-red beryl is very similar to bixbite but it has a wonderful surprise: It’s lithium-rich and cesium-rich! 

Bixbite, the scarlet red beryl, was the most rare mineral in the world for several years recently. Pezzottaite (pronounced Pez-Oat-ite) is also super rare and has more of a deep pink or raspberry red color. The small amount that’s been found on earth has been almost entirely mined. We were so lucky to buy this collection and it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us (and you).

Bixbite is colored red by iron and manganese. Pezzottaite is also colored by manganese but additionally contains lithium and cesium—all three of these elements go to the upper burner (heart, pericardium and lungs).

Another unique aspect is that pezzottaite crystallizes in the trigonal system, which is unique among beryls. The focus is fully targeting the fire element, and its associated palaces: prosperity and relationships. 

We know that beryls take us into the deepest realms of our beings, such as karmic, ancestral, constitutional and genetic patterns. 

We will work with this mineral for the deepest DNA healing and the deepest healing around the spiritual heart (heartbreak, sadness, loss) that has followed for many lifetimes. We also know that red beryl is a potent ally in rewriting the consciousness within and around soulmates, sacred union and unconditional love. This little stone is a miraculous offering from our Mother Earth and we bow to it as healers and we love sharing it with you. It will be a dynamic and charged new addition to your stone medicine chemistry set. p.s. Pezzottaite’s best friend is black tourmaline. 

Note: cesium in natural minerals is not radioactive. As always, use indirect methods only for elixirs and do not ingest these minerals.
