At first glance, Apophyllite can look like Quartz — but it is anything but.

Apophyllite is in fact a group of phyllosilicates and shares virtually nothing in common with Quartz in terms of composition. Its name derives from the Greek word ἀποφυλλίζω (apophylliso), meaning "to leaf apart". This flaking or peeling quality is one of the crystal's distinguishing characteristics.

Apophyllite is a high-vibrational stone that has become especially popular in recent years precisely because of its metaphysical properties.

It also represents the power of what some call the "Soul Star" — a name used by certain practitioners to describe the mysterious eighth chakra, the soul chakra, said to reside above the crown chakra.

The most sought-after form is the natural mini point, used for opening and expanding the third eye.
