What is zircon?

ZIRCON: A clear diamond like natural stone. Enhances power, strength, courage, prosperity, clarity, generosity, problem

solving, aids in crisis, fear and depression. Removes evil thinking. Aids in psychic, ESP, and meduimship qualities. Healers

use zircon for coughs, mucus, and insomnia. Zircon: brilliant but misunderstood

Hindu poets tell of the Kalpa Tree, the ultimate gift to the gods, a glowing tree covered in gemstone fruit with leaves of

zircon. Zircon has long played a supporting role to more well-known gemstones, often stepping in as an understudy when

they were unavailable.

In the middle ages, zircon was said to aid sleep, bring prosperity, and promote honour and wisdom in its owner. The name

probably comes from the Persian word 'zargun', which means 'gold-coloured', although zircon comes in a wide range of

different colours. Natural zircon today suffers on account of the similarity of its name to cubic zirconia, the laboratory-

grown diamond imitation. Many people are unaware that there is a beautiful natural gemstone called zircon.

Zircon looks like diamond, and sparkle more or less like diamond. So whoever wish to wear diamond as ring, pendant or earring, and couldn't afford to have it, just take Zircon as substitute. It's much cheaper.

Zircon is a mineral belonging to the group of nesosilicates. Its chemical name is zirconium silicate and its corresponding chemical formula is ZrSiO4.
