ManganoCalcite aka Pink Calcite (Peru)

These white banded, pale pink Calcite tumbles average approximately 3/4" each. Some have additional gray banding which I believe may be from Galena inclusions (that is a guess on my part :)

According to The Gemstone Healing Guide, A Healing Apothecary, ManganoCalcite is often associated with a deep connection to the Angelic Realms. It also is a stone of compassion and empathy.

Physically, Manganocalcite works with you to aid in balancing calcium levels, especially when there is a deficiency. Use ManganoCalcite to strengthen the immune system, ease pain, and heal tissue damage.

Manganocalcite helps to cool anger and ease irritability/anxieties. This is one of the most nurturing stones that I personally know of! It encourages us to face and release our fears, aids in forgiveness, eases grief and helps us connect to unconditional love.
