Variscite is a rare hydrated aluminum phosphate mineral.

Variscite is rarely found in crystals that are large enough to see without magnification. Instead it usually occurs in cryptocrystalline masses, nodules, veins, or cavity fillings. These usually form as a secondary mineral in near-surface deposits where phosphate-bearing waters interact with minerals that contain aluminum.

According to metaphysical beliefs, variscite is believed to enhance joy felt by the wearer. Carry variscite to induce peace and harmony within yourself. Though variscite is not an official birthstone, this gemstone is associated with the Zodiac signs of Gemini, Scorpio and Taurus.
