About Tachyhydrite

Hydrated calcium magnesium chloride, very hygroscopic (absorbs moisture and dissolves). Its properties primarily lend it to geochemical study rather than metaphysical use, though one might infer adaptability.

Primary Hues

Colorless, White, Yellowish, (Very hygroscopic and deliquescent)

Metaphysical Properties

Primarily of geochemical interest due to its properties. Metaphysically, its deliquescent nature might symbolize adaptability or dissolution of blockages, but this is speculative.

Affirmation

I embrace adaptability and dissolve blockages.
