Ulexite is commonly sold on the metaphysical market as the ‘TV Stone’, where its fiber optic characteristic makes one able to see an image projected onto the other side. You will find its acicular shape to be much more fibrous and very similar to Scolecite. Ulexite is a borate mineral famous for its unusual optical properties; it's named for its discoverer, the German chemist G. L. Ulex. When a slab of this white fibrous mineral is polished on both sides and placed on a sheet of newspaper, the words seem to “leap” to the top of the stone-- hence the nickname, television stone. Ulexite can be found in several locations, of which Boron, California is probably the most famous. What accounts for this unusual effect? The answer is that ulexite is a natural fiber optic material. Its parallel fibers exhibit total internal reflection, guiding light along the length of the fibers. Although ulexite was discovered around 1850, nobody took a close look at its optical properties until roughly a century later. Only in 1963, several years after the faceplate was invented, did Bob Potter recognize ulexite as a natural fiber bundle." The reason for this fiber optic effect is because ulexite’s display something called total internal reflection. That means light travels along the length of each fiber. Slow rays are internally reflected and fast rays are refracted, polarizing the light. Ulexite and selenite are sometimes confused for one another because they appear similar. Both can be fibrous, both can be translucent to transparent with fiber optic effects, both are form as evaporative deposits. Ulexite is a borate that is soluble in hot water. Satin Spar Selenite (Gypsum) is a sulfate and is not soluble in water, only in acids. Ulexite activates the third eye and is used to enhance inner visions, imagination, and creativity. It allows you to see the truth and energy you may not have picked up on before. This mineral is highly vibrational and brings about knowledge regarding your true self. Ulexite also activates the telepathic abilities in every person through meditation or deep slumbers. It’s a heavy amplifier, working on a high vibrational energy field which allows for the production of projections. It’s recommended to put a piece of Ulexite on your third eye while asleep or when meditating for maximum potential.
