Epidote is a silicate mineral that typically forms as green, prismatic crystals in metamorphic rocks. It can also occur as massive or granular aggregates. Epidote derives its green color from the presence of iron within its crystal structure. Epidote is associated with manifestation, growth, and transformation. It stimulates personal power, willpower, and abundance. Epidote helps in releasing negative patterns or behaviors and encourages spiritual growth and self-improvement. It aids in clearing energy blockages and promoting vitality and emotional well-being.  Green Zoisite’s energy produces growth and fertility in all aspects of life. Zoisite helps us “rebirth” and have a better understanding of ourselves and our connection to the outside world.
