desert rose is an intricate rose-like formation of crystal clusters of gypsum or baryte, which include abundant sand grains. The “petals” are crystals flattened on the c axis, fanning open in radiating clusters. Desert Rose inspires unyielding focus and commitment, teaches the true meaning of perseverance and guides one to step beyond any obstacle life puts before you. It encourages flexibility in thinking, boosts confidence and elevates sense of self and worth.
