According to stone healing, Prehnite helps with self-acceptance by recognizing and accepting even unpleasant inner truths. Thus we can accept other people as they are and our relationships become more harmonious.
The mineral Prehnite received its name after Colonel Hendrik von Prehn (1733 - 1785); spellings like Phrenite, Prenhite, Prenith or Phrenite are therefore not correct. Von Prehn brought back samples from the Cape of Good Hope in 1783 and had them examined by the mineralogist Abraham Gottlob Werner. The latter described the material and named it after von Prehn then Prehnite. The stone is the first mineral that is named after a person.
Trade names for the prehnite are cape chrysolite and cape emerald, earlier common names are aedelite, chiltonite, coupholite and edelite.
