Ruby fire in green zoisite, shaped into a pyramid.
Passion · Vitality · Growth
Earthy green, flecked with ruby red.
Ruby in zoisite, also known as anyolite, holds deep ruby within green zoisite. The zoisite gives the earthy green color and the black webs of tschermakite, while the ruby inclusions glow pink to red. Color, pattern and hardness vary a lot from stone to stone.
Cut into a pyramid with a square base and triangular sides, every face shows a different scatter of red, black and green.

A storied gem
Ruby's splendor, set in green.
Rubies once reigned as the very image of luxury, and ruby in zoisite carries that same red splendor in a captivating green setting. In 2010 a 2-kilogram stone known as the Gem of Tanzania found a new owner.
It has a rich history, too: ancient healers are said to have used it in ceremonies to connect with the spirit realm and bring on trance-like states, believing it could unlock the universe's wisdom and bring profound healing.
The crystal of passion, vitality and growth.
In many cultures the pyramid is considered one of the strongest talismans on Earth, a symbol of eternal life, spirituality and cosmic energy; its square base and triangular sides embody the physical body, life's journey and a connection to a higher power.
In crystal tradition, ruby in zoisite pairs earthy zoisite with fiery ruby and is said to carry the energy of patience and passion. It is believed to transmute negative energy into positive force-fields that overwhelm negativity. Crystal energy work connects it with the Root, Heart and Crown chakras, using the ruby and green zoisite to align root to heart to third eye and bring the chakras into balance, while its ruby is said to fire up courage and passion and stimulate the root chakra for vitality and enthusiasm for life.
Crystals have been prized for centuries for their beauty, their rich history and their believed metaphysical properties; Spirit Magicka makes no guarantee of any mystical or healing effect.
