Agate Spheres

An Agate Crystal Sphere is made of the banded chalcedony mineral variety known as Agate. 

Agate Crystal Spheres are particularly useful for those feeling unbalanced and for those struggling with mental clarity. 

Types of Agate crystal spheres include:

• Banded Agate Spheres
• Moss Agate Spheres (also known as Tree Agate Spheres)

Banded Agate Spheres

A Banded Agate Crystal Sphere is made of Banded Agate, which is often similar in appearance to Sardonyx or Carnelian. 

Banded Agate Crystal Spheres display a unique aesthetic composed of varying stripes, bands, and orbs of different colours and sizes. 

Use a Banded Agate Sphere to liven up a dull aesthetic with a splash of colour, and add character to a room or display using the wacky patterns of a Banded Agate Crystal Ball. 

Moss Agate Spheres

A Moss Agate Crystal Sphere is made of Moss Agate, a green dendritic agate stone with moss-like dendritic patterns which is also known as Tree Agate. 

Moss Agate Crystal Spheres are stones of wealth, abundance, and prosperity which can be used to achieve success during periods of growth and transformation, for example when transitioning to a new job, career, or relationship. 

A Moss Agate Sphere resonates strongly with the Heart Chakra, and can be used to create balance and harmony in one's living space.

A Tree Agate Sphere connects strongly to the Earth Element, for Tree Agate represents the power and beauty of nature, plants, and the Earth itself.

Create a display in your home of Tree Agate Spheres to celebrate the season of Spring and blossoming of new life in nature. 

Amazonite Spheres

An Amazonite Crystal Sphere is made of the blue-green tectosilicate mineral Amazonite, which is a type of microcline feldspar. 

Amazonite Crystal Spheres are deeply symbolic of the flow of water, for Amazonite's turquoise hues have been likened to the image of the flowing Amazon River, hence the name "Amazonite" or "Amazon Stone". 

An Amazonite Sphere can be used as a stone of hope, for Amazonite represents the positive power of new beginnings, wealth, prosperity, and abundance: Amazonite symbolises the flow of life itself through evoking the image of flowing water. 

Place an Amazonite Crystal Ball anywhere in your home to harness these powerful Amazonite spiritual properties, as well as to create a sense of harmony and balance within your home, especially during times of change.
