Spinel can be found in many colors, including red, orange, pink, purple, and black. The name Spinel originates from the Latin term “spinella,” meaning “spine” or “thorn.” This is due to the extremely sharp points in natural formations of Spinel gemstones. Spinel is sourced from Brazil, Kenya, Vietnam, Madagascar, and Tanzania. Metaphysically, Spinel is believed to hold healing properties that stimulate creativity and problem-solving strategies, as well as increasing energy and motivation.
