Yellow serpentine, also known as serpentine rock or serpentine mineral, is a type of metamorphic rock with a distinct yellow-green coloration. It is characterized by its waxy or scaly appearance and is often associated with the presence of the mineral serpentine. Serpentine is composed of magnesium, iron, and other elements, and it forms under high-pressure, low-temperature conditions during the metamorphism of certain types of rock.
Yellow serpentine is primarily composed of serpentine minerals, but it may also contain other minerals like talc, chlorite, and magnetite. This rock is commonly found in areas where there has been extensive tectonic activity, such as mountain ranges and subduction zones.
In addition to its geological significance, yellow serpentine is sometimes used for ornamental purposes due to its attractive colour and unique texture.
Serpentine is believed to have harmonious connection with our heart centre and assist in bringing our truest desires to life. In crystal healing it is often used for its ability to love and display compassionate emotions. Serpentine aids in the release of harmful emotions and feelings. It is believed to promote love in even the darkest of spaces around us.
