All About Cinnabar
Cinnabar / Cinnabrite
Cinnabar helps to attract abundance, opportunity, prosperity, and is a powerful stone in the acquisition of wealth. Cinnabar will help you connect with your true higher self. The path in which you set out on will only become more easily understood as you meditate with it. It will show you the power you have within, through deep meditative sessions that bring to life the real you that exists inside.
Cinnabar, also known as cinnabrite when found within a white matrix (usually scapolite or quartz), is a mineral composed of mercury sulfide (HgS) and is known for its vibrant red to reddish-brown color. The striking red color of cinnabar makes it easily identifiable and highly prized as a pigment and ornamental stone. In its raw form, cinnabar can appear as granular, massive, or crystalline. When cinnabar is found within a white matrix, it creates a visually appealing contrast, often referred to as cinnabrite.
