ASTRAEOLITE
ASTRAEOLITE CONSISTS OF SMALL PEICES OF PYRITE, EMBEDDED WITHIN ROCK CRYSTAL(WHITE QUARTZ). IT IS SAID TO BE NAMED AFTER THE GREEK GODESS ASTRAEA, DAUGHTER OF ASTRAEUS AND EOS. GODESS ASTRAEA IS A ROMANISED VERSION OF THE GREEK NAME, MEANING 'STARRY NIGHT' OR 'STAR MAIDEN'. THE CRYSTAL IS NAMED AFTER ASTRAEA, AS IT IS SAID THAT LOOKING INTO THE CRYSTAL, IS LIKE LOOKING INTO THE STARRY NIGHT ITSELF.
