It is often described as a stone of calm acceptance, inner peace and unconditional love, and many people keep it close for peaceful meditation or during times of change. In crystal tradition it is also called a stone of preparedness, linked with staying centered rather than anxious. The heart shape adds its own long-standing symbolism of love, kindness and care, making this a gentle, comforting stone to hold or share.

It was the first mineral named after a person, Dutch colonel Hendrik von Prehn, who brought it from South Africa in the 1700s. It often forms in rounded, bubbly masses inside volcanic rocks, and frequently grows with epidote, whose dark green needles show inside many polished pieces. Australia, Mali and South Africa are well-known sources. Its fresh green tones make it a collector favorite.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFurther Reading\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/green-crystals-meaning-properties-heart-chakra-energy\"\u003eGreen Crystals: Meaning and Properties\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/blogs\/news\/heart-shaped-crystals-love-healing-meaning\"\u003eHeart-Shaped Crystals: Meaning and Uses\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eBring home this prehnite heart and keep a little green calm close to your own.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ali","offers":[{"title":"Prehnite \/ 50-100g","offer_id":48299841847467,"sku":"1005012101451001-50-100g","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Prehnite \/ 100-200g","offer_id":48299841880235,"sku":"1005012101451001-100-200g","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0613\/0345\/5915\/files\/Prehnite-Crystal-Heart-Hearts-Prehnite-50-100g.jpg?v=1792477161","url":"https:\/\/www.crystaldestiny.com\/products\/prehnite-heart","provider":"Crystal Destiny","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
