Who needs polish when raw Marcasite already sparkles like a star-studded night sky?
 
Marcasite is a striking mineral made of iron sulfide, sharing the same chemical composition as pyrite but forming in a different crystalline structure. It often develops in bladed or tabular crystal habits, giving specimens a sharp, radiating appearance that catches the light with metallic brilliance. Found in locations such as France, Germany, Peru, and the United States, Marcasite has long fascinated collectors for its mirror-like luster and intricate formations.
 
Metaphysically, Marcasite is considered a stone of clarity and focus. It stimulates the mind, encourages determination, and helps cut through illusions to reveal truth. Its grounding energy makes it a stabilizing ally during times of change, while also sparking creativity and new ideas. Often linked with transformation, Marcasite supports personal growth by dissolving outdated patterns and opening the door to fresh perspectives.
