Indonesian Natrolite Pendant 1E

This Natrolite was only found in early 2020 on the island of Nusa Kambangan, Central Java, Indonesia, has a unique salmon pink colour and Larimar-like texture on polished surfaces, which is not common in Natrolite from other localities. Although sometimes misrepresented as Thomsonite or pink Larimar I find the colour combination in this material very intriguing and reminds me a little of Fossilised Coral.

This piece weighs 2g and measures 2.5cm x 1.5cm.

Named for the Greek for “sodium,” natrio, in reference to the mineral’s sodium content, and for “stone,” lithos. Natrolite is a mineral that occurs in cavities in basalts and other igneous rocks as one of the last minerals to forms, and also occurs as a filling in seams in granites, gneisses, and syenites.

Natrolite is pyroelectric and piezoelectric, and will generate a charge in response to temperature and pressure changes, respectively. It will commonly fluoresce an orange to yellow under ultraviolet light.

Natrolite is the principal member of a group of zeolite minerals whose molecular structure is predominantly chains of linked silicate and aluminate tetrahedra (four oxygen atoms arranged at the points of a triangular pyramid about a central silicon or aluminum atom); the relative scarcity of lateral bonds between chains results in the characteristic fibrous appearance of the group. Other zeolites in the natrolite group are Mesolite, Scolecite, Thomsonite and Gonnardite; all have similar modes of occurrence, molecular structures, and physical properties, even though they have different crystal symmetries: mesolite and scolecite crystallize in the monoclinic system (three unequal axes with one inclined to the plane of the other two), whereas Natrolite, Thomsonite, and Gonnardite crystallize in the orthorhombic system (three unequal axes at right angles to one another). Mesolite is chemically intermediate between Natrolite and Scolecite.

Natrolite was one of the first zeolite minerals for which cation-exchange properties (dissolved sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium readily replacing one another in the molecular structure) were discovered. It is used in softening water.

This stone is one of this very helpful group of crystals, with strong metaphysical properties that make it most desirable to own. Zeolites generally as a group of stones can assist the environment, as they absorb toxic products and odors, so it is an excellent stone to have in your home. Natrolite Crystals are possibly the most powerful variety of zeolite stone.

Natrolite is a stone that instantaneously raises your vibration upon touch linking your third eye and crown chakra together. This effect can push you into a state of awakening in which the world that you viewed yesterday may be entirely different than today. Shifting your outlook can change your entire life perspective and gravitate towards your true soul's purpose here on earth. This experience may be frightening at times, but just know that you are in control of your own actions. By maintaining a positive mental attitude, and the ability to generate an uplifting mindset, you will feel a strong sense of security during your self-transformation.

Natrolite inherently gives off vibrations of open-mindedness and an endless search for knowledge. Just as our ancestors looked to the stars for their answers, Natrolite can assist us in looking inwards towards our higher selves. When you tap into this energy you will find yourself tapping into the endless vibrations of the universe. It’s a proven fact our species is made up of stardust and re-connecting yourself back to the cosmos is vital towards achieving your life path.
