Unakite is a pistachio-green and salmon-pink stone that formed in the Unaka Mountains of North Carolina, where it was first identified. The green is epidote, the pink is feldspar, and quartz threads run through both.
It's a stone people reach for during emotional recovery work. The color combination is soft enough to keep close during grief, breakup, illness recovery, or any period that requires more heart than head.
Put a tumble on a nightstand, in a pocket, or in the palm during a slow morning breath practice. Unakite has a long reputation as a gentle heart stone that doesn't push toward a specific emotion. It sits with whatever is present and lets the pace be slow. That patience is often more useful than a stone that promises to fix something quickly.
You'll be sent the one intuitively chosen for you.
