Moldavite
Moldavite has had a long journey. Moldavite is the only gemstone with cosmic origins that exists presently here on Earth (outside of the synthetically produced moissanite, which includes miniscule fragments of a meteoric substance). Moldavite's next destination, perhaps, is your gemstone collection. The creation of moldavite began many, many years ago. Approximately 14.8 million years ago, a meteorite collided with planet Earth. The impact created what is now known as the Reis Crater, which is located in Germany. After bouncing up into the atmosphere and cooling off, fragments of the meteor splattered all over the earth. The result produced a green, glass-like substance which is known as moldavite. It, along with australite (from Australia) and billitonite (from Belitung), is categorized as a tektite. Due to its meteoric origin, some estimates say that there are 275 tons of moldavite splattered all over the world. However, even with all of those amounts out there, it is predicted that commercial mining for moldavite will end in approximately ten years. The prediction is that no more substantial quantities of quality moldavite will be left. A limited number of mines are currently operating in the Czech Republic. Moldavite is one of the rarest tektites. When moldavite is cut and polished, it is sometimes referred to as chrysolite. The iron content in it helps to produce its green color. Tiny bubbles or swirls can be seen inside the stone. There are two kinds of moldavite: high quality (which is also known as museum grade), and regular grade. Regular grade is darker in color. High quality moldavite, however, is more translucent and is sometimes found in patterns that resemble a fern. High quality moldavite is desired more than regular grade, and therefore, costs more. Even so, the prices of moldavite gemstones are reasonable. Unique, hand-crafted jewelry comes from the high quality stones. Moldavite is a gemstone that needs to be worn with care. It has a hardness between 5-5.5 on Mohs scale. Because of this, it is not suitable for strenuous activities. Do not use harsh cleaning methods on this gemstone. In addition to reminding us that we are only a small part of the universe, moldavite, according to some, helps the wearers achieve self-discovery and brings about positive changes in their lives.

Quartz - Himalayan Pink Nirvana
Himalayan Pale Pink Ice Nirvana Quartz. This unusual rosy quart is a type of interference quartz formation with a powerful, nurturing and protective energy signature known as Nirvana Quartz or Himalayan Ice Quartz, which is new in the world crystal markets. Nirvana Quartz originates high in the Himalayan mountain ranges of northern India. Late in 2006, Nirvana Quartz was discovered in extremely high altitude areas which had formerly been covered in ice 365 days a year. Exploring where glaciers had recently retreated, rockhounds discovered deposits of a unique type of rosy quartz never seen before. Nirvana Quartz appears in wands and in chunks composed of aggregates of irregularly shaped, convuluted smaller crystal formations which have grown into a single larger specimen over millennia of geological time. Himalyan Ice Quartz almost invariably lacks the more common six-sided shaft and well-defined termination tips characteristic of much clear and rose quartz found around the world. Nirvana Ice Quartz is an extreme example of the type of crystal formation known as growth interference quartz. Growth interference crystals are created when calcite or other mineral formations adhere to the crystallizing quartz formation, then disappear over time. This results in the creation of indentations, grooves and other irregularities along the prismatic faces of the quartz crystal. Growth interference crystals are typically used to enhance understanding of blocks we encounter in our quest for emotional, physical, or spiritual growth, and to gently remove these "stuck" energies, representing old and outdated mental conceptions of the world, recurring patterns of negative behavior manifesting in relationships, negative emotional reactions to life conditions , and physical impediments to health and well-being. The growth interference crystal can be used to help remove blockages in the chakra system, facilitating the flow of Kundalini energy throughout the human energy field. Nirvana Ice Quartz tends to heat up quite rapidly in the hand. One notices a strong flow of warmth and a surge of Universal Life Force energy up the arm and into the chest, centering in the heart, and then rushing down the trunk into the lower chakras, providing support, centering and grounding one's being. . Nirvana Ice Quartz is a wonderful stone to hold or place under the pillow when entering dream time, and provides a feeling of security, warmth, protection and well-being.
Quartz - Lemurian Seed Crystals
Lemurian Seed Crystals contain and transmit messages of equality and unconditional love from ancient advanced civilizations. They are thought to be energy grid links from the Earth to the stars and other dimensions and are excellent for chakra clearing and balancing. They are excellent for dream work - go to sleep holding one. According to Naisha Ahsian, author and creator of the Crystal Ally Cards: "Lemurian Seed Crystals emanate a very Yin or feminine energy and are powerful tools for enhancing meditation and healing work. Lemurian seeds are structured to allow one to "climb" up the etheric levels of the body (the seven chakras and levels of being), and out the Crown and Soul Star chakras for astral travel. They also are powerful in assisting one in communications with spiritual guides and angels." These wands are excellent to use in healing energy work for the removal of strong energy blockages. The Lemurian vibration programmed into these wands opens the heart chakra, allowing for healing and expression of the emotions and are excellent to cut the outdated emotional ties that bind one to another person. They are also helpful in cauterizing wounds that allow "energy leaks" and assist in the return to balance of those who are overly sensitive to the emotions of others or who have been energetically traumatized by negative environments. The Lemurian Seed Crystals are mined in Brazil. They were found at the top of a hill that was being strip-mined for quartz. These naturally formed generators were found separately in sand and were not attached to clusters. They immediately got attention because they were not like the rest of the quartz found in clusters in that area. Some, but not all of them, carry a pink to reddish glow. These unique crystals are clear quartz but instead of shiny, they appear frosted or dull-like they have a matte finish. Their most unique characteristic is a series of horizontal striations that run up one or more of the sides of the crystal. Generally (but not always) these distinct horizontal striations end in a triangular face forming the apex of the crystal.

Energy from the impact melts terrestrial rock and ejects it into the upper reaches of the atmosphere. A few minutes later tektites rain down. The final morphologies are largely dependent on the distance from the source crater and the degree of terrestrial weathering/etching. How do they form? 1) A comet or asteroid impacts the Earth, probably at an oblique angle. 2) Terrestrial (Earth) rock is melted and ejected into the upper atmosphere at hyper-velocities. 3) Tektites rain down. a) If close to the source they land molten or with just a thin brittle outer shell which may crack. Bald spots form due to flaking on the anterior surface. b) At medium distances of around 2000 to 4000 km from the impact site they have solidified sufficiently on the exterior that during re-entry the heating causes paper-thin cracks and spalling on the anterior surface. c) At greater distances of around 4000 km to 6000km the tektites re-enter the atmosphere solid.
