Apatite - the Stone of Manisfestation

Apatite was discovered in 1786 by Abraham Gottlob who named it “Apatao” from the ancient Greek word that means to mislead because it is often mistaken for other minerals. Apatite originates in Mexico, Norway, Russia, and the USA.

Apatite is the most common Phosphate mineral of which the primary use is for Fertilizer. There are also studies being done to see if it can be used to store nuclear waste. Moon rocks collected by astronauts contained traces of Apatite. Further investigation of the Apatite found on the moon led scientists to estimate that the moon was at one time covered by water.

Metaphysically

Apatite is the stone of Manifestation, is associated deeply with spiritual wisdom and truth. It promotes a humanitarian attitude, inclining toward service. Apatite is attached to the future yet connects to past lives. It develops psychic gifts and spiritual attunement, deepens meditation, raises the kundalini (the life-force within us), and aids communication and self-expression on all levels. It helps with focusing on goals, connecting to the Divine, eliminating negativity, raising energetic vibration, enhancing intuition, facilitating truth, motivation, decreasing social anxiety, and self-consciousness.

Emotionally

Apatite helps with apathy. It encourages liveliness, helps with exhaustion, particularly if periods of extreme activity are followed by complete lack of activity, and reduces irritability and aggression. Apatite eases sorrow, anger, and lack of incentive and helps to turn our attention to happier circumstances.

Physically

Apatite stimulates healthy eating habits. It mobilizes energy reserves, encourages the formation of new cells, as well as the growth of cartilage, bone, and teeth. It ameliorates damage to posture, rickets, arthritis, and joint problems, and promotes the healing of broken bones. In ancient times Apatite was ground up and taken internally to stimulate bone growth and repair.
