Agate ‘The Stabilizer’, the stone to call on for support when you need stability and grounding in your life. Along with its supportive energy, the Agate stone has been long admired for its incredible beauty. The term ‘Agate’ derives its name from the river Achates which is in Sicily. A combination of igneous rock with silica deposits found in groundwater, the otherworldly chalcedony bands give this semi-precious stone its trademark appearance.
What gives the Agate stone its incredibly powerful grounding abilities is its availability in different colors, including a palette of white, purple, black, gray, yellow, pink, red, and brown. This stone belongs to the quartz family, which makes it a popular crystal for healing, especially due to its composition of silicon dioxide, a mineral that is also found in the human body.
