OverviewThe micas are an important group of minerals. Micas are significant rock forming minerals being found in all three rock types: igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary. The term "mica" is so familiar to the general public that it is often considered a mineral in itself.
Of course it is actually a group of minerals. Most people know the three most common mica minerals: muscovite, fuchsite, and lepidolite so those are the stones that I will be explaining in more depth here. The Mica Group is actually a rather large group of minerals with over 30 members. Large crystals of mica used for various applications are typically mined from granitic pegmatites. Mica grows by building up see-through paper-thin layers upon layers, which appear opaque but are in fact transparent. Mica is very metallic (containing very reactive element metals such as Potassium and Lithium, as well as Aluminium and Silica) and can be cold to touch. Mica occurs semi-translucent crystals, either flat angular blades, or rosettes or even hexagonal thin columns.
fuchsiteFuchsite amplifies the energy of crystals and facilitates their transfer. It moves energy to the lowest point of the physical body and encourages it to achieve homeostasis. This stone releases blockages that have been caused by excess physical energy, shifting it into more positive channels. It balances the red and white blood cell ratio, treats carpal tunnel syndrome and repetitive strain injury.

Fuchsite assists you to understand your interaction with others and and highlights your basic concerns about life such as food, shelter and money. Fuchsite shows you how to do only what is appropriate and necessary for someone's spiritual growth and helps you stand by while they learn their own life lessons. It combines unconditional love with tough love. It is useful for combating a situation where someone is helping you in a negative way, just to make themselves feel wonderful and keep you dependent upon them. Fuchsite promotes lightheartedness, friendliness, compassion and recovery from spiritually damaging experiences. There is a term used in psychology and counselling called the Identified Patient, or "IP", it is a term used in a clinical setting to describe the person in a dysfunctional family who has been unconsciously, or sometimes consciously, selected by the others, to lay blame upon, so that attention is drawn away from the family's true inner conflicts, true problem behaviors, and their perpetrators. The identified patient is a diversion and a scapegoat. This person, often a child, is "the split-off false carrier of a breakdown in the entire family system," which may be a transgenerational disturbance or trauma. Fuchsite gives this person the strength to find wellness and the ability to withdraw from the family conflict. Fuchsite overcomes codependency and emotional blackmail. it offers you the resilience after trauma or emotional tension. Fuchsite helps you deal with any issues of servitude that you may have from past or present lives. It reverses a tendency toward martyrdom. This stone will guide you in avoiding power struggles or false humility while still being of service to others. IMAGES OF THE MICA GROUP OF CRYSTALS
