Desert Rose Significance?

@secilia I know you already got your answer from the wonderful @Amethyst, but if I might be so bold as to add, I wanted to share an in-depth post on Selenite/Satin Spar that you might find interesting.

Here are a few links specifically about the Desert Rose. Link 1 and Link 2 and Link 3

To break it down:

  • Gypsum is the overall mineral species.
  • Selenite is the crystalline variety of gypsum.
  • Desert Rose is the name for these crystals when they grow in arid, sandy conditions, trapping sand grains to form “petals”.

Enjoy your lovely new crystal addtion! :quartz_crystal: :smiling_face:
