Geology: Fluorite (calcium fluoride, CaF₂) is a halide mineral that forms in hydrothermal veins, often alongside quartz, calcite, and metallic ore deposits. It is renowned for its extraordinary range of colours — including purple, green, blue, yellow, and colourless — caused by impurities, radiation exposure, and crystal lattice defects. Many specimens display striking colour zoning or banding within a single piece. Fluorite can be strongly fluorescent under UV light but not always, a property from which the word “fluorescence” is derived. Major sources include China, Mexico, South Africa, and the UK (notably Derbyshire Blue John).

In crystal healing traditions, Fluorite is known as the Genius Stone — associated with mental clarity, focus, organisation, and the absorption of negative energies. Different colour zones carry additional properties: purple for intuition and spiritual awareness, green for heart healing and growth, blue for calm and communication. The dragonfly symbolises transformation, adaptability, and the ability to see beyond illusion — a perfect pairing with fluorite’s clarifying energy.
