| Moldavite
The gem from outer space! This stunning olive-green gem belongs to a family of stones called Tektites: meteoric impact glasses. 14.7 million years ago, a giant meteorite hit western Bavaria, causing melted terrestrial material to fly into the air, where it cooled quickly and formed moldavite. Most of it fell in the Moldau Valley in the Czech Republic, hence the name “moldavite.” Moldavite is sought out for its metaphysical properties, as a tool for spiritual development and consciousness expansion. People who are sensitive to stone energies describe Moldavite as a stone with an extremely high vibration, which is felt as heat or a pulsing tingle. Moldavite is supposed to open blockages in any chakra. Many report that working with the mineral has coincided with an acceleration of their spiritual path. |
Meteorite
Meteorites are rocks that fall to the earth's surface from space. Often originating from asteroid and comet fragments that travel through space till crossing our planetary path, as the effects of gravity pull the meteoroid enough to fall through the planet's atmosphere.
Meteors, also known as shooting stars, are the streaks of light created by the gasses held within meteoroids burning in the Earth's atmosphere. Some of the fastest meteors travel at speeds of 44 miles (70km) per second. These amazing space rocks are then considered meteorites when they crash to earth as the final bang!
Metaphysically meteorites connect us to the flow of the universe, connecting to other dimensions, and communicating with others.

The first record of the Campo meteorite was in 1576. A Spanish governor learned of deposits of iron from the Indians who reportedly believed that it had fallen from heaven. The location of the find was the Campo del Cielo (field of the sky or heaven), a fitting name for the location of a meteorite. Since the Indians believed that the irons fell from heaven the name may have come from the meteorites. Carbon dating of charred wood found in impact craters is consistent with an Indian oral tradition of the time the irons fell from heaven. The area in which the meteorites are found is an open brush-covered plain that has little water and no other rocks, which is very good country in which to locate meteorites. The larger meteorites are found in and around a series of small craters in the southwestern part of the strewn field. The largest crater measures 78x65 meters. The smallest being around 56 meters. All together, searchers have found at least 12 craters.
Pakimer Diamond
A Parkimer diamond is a naturally faceted, double-terminated quartz crystal like the Herkimer diamonds that come from Herkimer, N.Y.. Pakimer diamonds are from Pakistan. Crystals with high brilliance, clarity and surface luster can look like real diamonds.
Quartz
The colorless, transparent variety of quartz. Quartz is composed of silicon dioxide, the most common mineral in Earth’s crust after ice and feldspar. The name “rock crystal” emerged in the Middle Ages to differentiate it from colorless glass. The Greeks called water-color crystals krystalos, hence the name “crystal.” The name quartz comes from Old German, but its origins are unknown. Metaphysically, quartz is used for power, communication, and cleansing. Found worldwide, fine specimens of quartz can be found in Arkansas, Brazil, and Madagascar.
