Physical Information
Wagnerite is a rare phosphate mineral composed primarily of magnesium phosphate with traces of iron, manganese, or fluorine.
It typically forms in pegmatites and metamorphic rocks, especially in high-temperature environments.
Wagnerite appears in warm tones such as yellow, golden-brown, amber, or pale orange, often with a resinous to vitreous luster.
Crystals may be prismatic, fibrous, or granular, and the mineral usually shows a translucent to opaque structure.
Significant deposits are found in Austria, Sweden, Brazil, Madagascar, China, and the USA.
Because of its rarity and unique colour range, Wagnerite is appreciated by mineral collectors rather than the broader gem market.
Metaphysical Properties
Wagnerite is associated with vitality, motivation, and strengthening the inner will.
Its warm colours symbolize energy flow, supporting creativity, determination, and personal drive.
Emotionally, Wagnerite is believed to stabilize mood, reduce self-doubt, and encourage confidence in decision-making.
Many use it to unlock blocked energy, stimulate action, and maintain focus during demanding projects, transformations, or periods of growth.
