Metaphysical Properties: Green Fluorite is considered the most cleansing of all the fluorite varieties, particularly effective at purifying and refreshing the Heart chakra and the emotional body. It is believed to clear emotional congestion — unresolved grief, held resentment, or stagnant sadness — and replace it with fresh clarity and an open, receptive heart. Practitioners use it to support healing after emotional trauma, to detoxify the auric field from negative environmental influences, and to bring fresh perspective to situations where one has become emotionally stuck. Green Fluorite is also associated with bringing structure to creative projects and supporting the practical organization of inspired ideas.
