Prehnite typically forms in igneous rocks, especially in cavities and veins, and can also be found in metamorphic rocks. It’s commonly associated with minerals like epidote, quartz, and calcite. Its unique, soft green glow makes it a popular choice for collectors and those interested in metaphysical properties, where it’s believed to foster intuition, healing, and peace. In terms of its physical properties, prehnite is relatively soft with a Mohs hardness of 6, so it’s important to handle it gently to prevent scratching or damage. It has a distinctive pearly to vitreous luster and a translucent quality that adds to its ethereal, otherworldly appearance.
