With a grain of pomegranate tree, many people associate this stone, but in fact, its shades can be very different: from bright scarlet to black and even blue. So what kind of gem is called garnet? The stone is suitable for a horoscope, and who is strictly not recommended to wear it? Let's try to understand.

Description of the crystal

Not one mineral is called garnet, there are about twenty of them. The crystals are similar in structure. The general formula: R ₂ ⁺³ R ₃ ⁺² [SiO ₄ ] ₃ , where R ₂ - metals Divalent (calcium and iron, magnesium and manganese), and R ₃ - trivalent (iron, aluminum, chromium). The variety of colors and shades is due precisely to the combination of metal ions in the composition.

Garnet is mined on almost all continents, except for the Arctic and Antarctica. And the popularity with the years of the gem only grows. And not only originality and beauty play a role here.

Colors and shades

The classical view at the word "garnet" is scarlet, like a drop of blood. But sometimes it is emerald green, and grassy, and olive. By the way, it was the green garnet that inspired Bunin to write the famous novel "Pomegranate Bracelet". And in jewelry stores you can find stones of orange and yellow shades, all tones of brown, violet and even blue (the rarest and therefore incredibly expensive). The jewelers value minerals with the alexandrite effect when it changes its color depending on the type of lighting.

From the color, the magical properties of the garnet stone, which they attribute to him, also largely depend.
