Purple creedite forms as a secondary mineral in fluorite-rich hydrothermal deposits when the fluorite undergoes oxidation. It typically appears as delicate, radiating sprays of acicular (needle-like) or prismatic crystals, often forming on a matrix of fluorite or other associated minerals. While most famous for its purple hues, the mineral's color can range from colorless to white, orange, and violet.
Associated with raising one's vibration, boosting creativity, aiding in dream interpretation, and providing insight into subconscious desires. The purple variety can inspire feelings of mystery, magic, and nobility.
