Geodes, in geological terms, are hollow, rounded rock formations that are often lined with crystals or other minerals. Inside these Moroccan geodes quartz and selenite can be found.
- Color: Geodes can come in various colors depending on the minerals present inside. Common colors include white, gray, brown, due to the crystals lining the inner cavity.
- Hardness: The hardness of geodes can vary depending on the minerals inside, but typically they are not as hard as quartz. It may range from 5 to 7 on the Mohs scale.
- Clarity: Geodes are generally not transparent, as they have a solid outer shell. However, the crystals inside may have varying levels of clarity.
- Luster: The luster of geodes can range from dull to vitreous (glassy), depending on the type of crystals inside.
- Density: The density of geodes can vary widely depending on the composition of the minerals inside.
- Metaphysical Properties: Geodes are often associated with spiritual and metaphysical properties such as promoting harmony, balance, and positive energy. They are believed to amplify energy and promote spiritual growth.
