Labradorite is a form of feldspar that gets its flash, or labradorescence, through its very thin and compacted layers. As light travels down into the stone, these layers refract and reflect the colors back to the surface. Labradorite is truly a fascinatingly beautiful mineral. It's a mineral whose charm is not fully noticed and may be overlooked if not viewed from the proper position. Generally a dull, dark looking mineral with no special virtue until the colorful shiller is observed glowing on the surface. Labradorite can produce a colorful play of light across cleavage planes and in sliced sections called labradorescence. The usually intense colors range from the typical blues and violets through greens, yellows and oranges. Some rare specimens display all these colors simultaneously. The color display is from lamellar intergrowths inside the crystal. These intergrowths result from compatible chemistries at high temperatures becoming incompatible at lower temperatures and thus a separating and layering of these two phases. The resulting color effect is caused by a ray of light entering a layer and being refracted back and forth by deeper layers. This refracted ray is slowed by the extra travel through the layers and mixes with other rays to produce a light ray coming out that has a different wavelength than when it went in. The wavelength could correspond to the wavelength of a particular color, such as blue. The effect depends on the thickness and orientation of the layers. Labradorite occurs in igneous rocks and is the feldspar variety most common in basalt and gabbro. It is found in metamorphic amphibolite. Iridescent optical effect comes from silicate streaks, giving a refractive index of 1.5.
Metaphysically, Labradorite is said to Activate the Third Eye Chakra, opening your senses, enhancing your vision, and making it possible to see the world fully as it is around you. Labradorite sharpens your focus, and like The Hermit in the tarot, this gem helps light your path to see your way through challenges. Labradorite brings hope, possibility, and imagination and kindles your inner fire like its brilliant fiery flashes of color that sparkle from its darkness.
Soothing Palm Stones are used by holding the stone between the index finger and thumb and gently moving one's thumb back and forth across the stone. This action of moving one's thumb back and forth across the stone is thought to produce a calming affect. Palm stones are the perfect pieces to keep close. Their smooth finish makes them easy to transport, and you can keep them on you at any time.
