Mica Crystal Healing & Properties Information
For what and How Does One Use it?
Mica helps us focus on what is important, stripping away distractions like layers of an onion until all that is left is what really matters. It helps bring in new psychic abilities in a smooth and controllable fashion. Mica often companions high-energy crystals such as Tourmalines, Aquamarines and Topaz. It acts as a protective interface so one does not become overwhelmed by the sheer energy of the higher vibrational crystals it grows with.

In today’s world we are bombarded with irrelevance on an epic scale, especially through media. Mica helps cut through all that to focus us on what is really important, a stone for the “information” age for sure!

Hi there!
I wanna ask 2 questions
1.) i have black tourmaline that came with silver streaks that shines so bright, From what i have researched it could be black tourmaline with mica. My tourmaline is from India where apparently these kind of pieces originate from. I want to confirm whether it is mica or what else it could be. It is completely natural and I'm too scared to even try and clean it.
2.) I have some really stunning citrine pieces that have very faint silver lines, doesn't seem to be mica; so what else could it be. This too i ordered from my supplier in india and from all the citrine i have collected i know that it is completely natural. They are just very faint streaks. And is there citrine found in India or did he source it from another place?
I thank you in advance as I've never been more confused.
p.s do you know anything about removing hard to remove clay from raw garnet?
Hi Amrita, without photos it is a bit tough sorry. Yes, Mica does commonly grow with and on Tourmaline, so there is a good chance. I’;ve not seen Citrine from India, though there well could be some there. I have seen a lot of clay included quartz passed off as Citrine from India, it has the lines of yellow clay running along the veils inside the quartz. If you could try adding a photo or two, I will try to assist further.
If you have tried soaking the garnet in water for a few days and the clay still won’t move after a good tooth brushing or the like, then it may be iron oxides which people usually remove with a cleaning product called iron off, or oxallic acid. There is lots of good articles at websites like mindat.org to help you with that. Thank You!
Hi Anthony, how do you use it for spiritual purposes. And I find it hard to clean. You have any hints? Thanks
Hi Chris, if it is the same Mica from thee photo you sent asking about the Aquamarine, I would say iot is about as clean as you could get it. You could try searching through or asking the people at mindat.org if they know a way to get it cleaner?
Hello!
i was wondering if you could tell me, is the physical property shown here the same thing as its chemical property?
Hello Dede,
Yes it is.
Thank You for your question!
Thank you!
But I was also wondering a few other things on Mica that I was hoping that you may be able to help me with.
One of witch was, if the street color of Mica was listed in the color variations? And witch one it might be?
Since some of the sites I visited in search of this information had to wide of a variety for the street and/or state colors for me to be able to find what I was looking for I was hoping you might be able to help.
I’m sorry, I’m not sure what you mean by “street” colors?
Hello what is or are some basic differences and or similarities of mica and mica schist. Not sure of my spelling. Thank you…

Hi Kevin, My understanding is Schist is a coarse-grained metamorphic rock that consists of layers of different minerals (Mica among them along with chlorite, talc, hornblende, and graphite) and can be split into thin irregular plates. Where as Mica is it’s own mineral and forms in flaky layers.
