Translucent Besednice Moldavite Florette

This .625 inch long, 6.12 carat Translucent Besednice Moldavite Florette displays an irregular surface with highly etched features created by this gemstone's dramatic origin story.  Like other good Moldavite specimens it has a complex irregular surface and a biomorphic form, which indicates the meteoric origins of this amazing gemstone, which travelled through the atmosphere and liquefied upon impact with the Earth. The liquid moldavite was then propelled by the impact through the atmosphere for many miles, forming the unique shape and surface irregularities that cooled into this gemstone's present form. We obtained this beauty from the collection of Robert Simmons of Heaven & Earth many years ago, when the Besednice mines were still producing substantial amounts of top quality material. Properties of Moldavite Moldavite is a rare bottle-green translucent stone of unearthly origins, more rare than diamonds, rubies or sapphires. The clay pits of Besednice, Czech Republic are the only source in the world for the world's most desirable flavor of Moldavite. Mineral collectors and Lightworkers agree that this is the highest grade of Moldavite, extremely rare on today's market and increasing in value every year. The mines in Czechia that produced this top grade Moldavite have been closed for years, and it is difficult to find AAA Besednice Moldavite at any price. Our quality is better than 99% of available AAA Besednice Moldavite you'll find and our price is very generous. Like other Besednice specimens this beautiful serrated Besednice Standing Moldavite Specimen has a complex surface, with lacy folds and grooves with a curving side which enables it to stand on its own. It is the perfect size to hold in the hand during meditation or for display on an altar or tabletop. It is quite translucent and energetically powerful. Like other good Moldavite specimens it has a complex irregular surface and a biomorphic form, which indicate the origins of this amazing gemstone, which originated in outer space and liquefied upon impact with the Earth, forming the unique surface irregularities that cooled into this gemstone's present form. Scientists postulate that a meteor shower in Germany some 15-20 million years ago liquified the landscape where the meteors landed, forming fused glass at very high heat, which was then ejected from the meteor craters in Germany and propelled hundreds of miles away, landing in the Moldau Valley of Czechoslovakia -- site of the only moldavite known to exist. As the melted rock traveled at high speed through the upper atmosphere, the super-heated material was shaped into a variety of unusual formations typical of splash patterns found in liquids: spherical, oval, drop, dumbbell, elliptical, rodlike or spiral. The rarest of moldavites resemble intricate opened flowers. Scientists are unsure about the exact origins or composition of moldavite. It is not considered to be a member of the mineral family and displays unusual characteristics. It is classed as a mineraloid gemstone, a member of the tektite family, with no classifiable crystal structure. Moldavite's chemistry is unique and as yet unexplained. Moldavites are the rarest of gems, perhaps more rare than diamonds, rubies or emeralds. Moldavites have been prized for over 25,000 years, since archaeologists have discovered moldavite shards and pieces in cave dwellings of that era. In his book Moldavites: The Czech Tektites, Professor Vladimir Bouska states that "The first human being that was interested in Moldavites was a Cro-Magnon man from the aurignacian age, i.e., the Upper Paleolithic. Several potsherds [fragments] of green Moldavite glass were found together with the famous statue of Venus of Willendorf, which is about 29,000 years old, at Willendorf in Lower Austria." Moldavite is known as the Grail Stone. Legends say that the Holy Grail was formed out of a green stone that fell from Lucifer's crown as he descended from his heavenly abode to Hell, impelled by the force of a blow from the sword of Michael the Archangel. Until recently it was assumed the Grail Stone was emerald, but recently metaphysical rockhounds have suggested that the true Grail Stone is moldavite, a translucent green gemstone that fell from the sky millions of years ago. Metaphysical rockhounds and crystal healers say that moldavite activates any and all of the chakras and also opens the mind to the limitless possibilities inherent in its cosmic origins. Moldavite's energy tends to dissipate blocks throughout the energy system and then center energy in the heart, opening the heart to universal love. Moldavite is a the stone of transformation, par excellence. Working with Moldavite can have a profound effect, enabling the holder or wearer of this exceptional stone to consciously release unwanted programs, scripts, energies & thinking from their lives. The bearer of moldavite will often find that difficult or painful people, situations and conditions will be released, and then replaced by similar people, places or situations that are more congenial, more positive and more beneficial. If you want change in your life, Moldavite can expedite that change, connecting you to Source and your own Divinity. From personal experience during meditation with Moldavite, I can tell you that much depends upon intent. When my intent has been to quiet the mind, holding one of these crystals reduces mental chatter to virtually nothing, while stimulating the crown chakra, the third eye and the eighth chakra above the crown, creating a feeling of warmth and depth, a buzzing and a tingling on the crown of the head and between the eyebrows. There was a physical awareness of a tremendous flows of energy carried on the inbreath and outbreath from the eighth chakra and higher, spiritual sources, through these vital centers and deep into the body. Concentration on the inner light, and inner meditative visualizations were greatly enhanced, and the ability to connect to inner spiritual guidance, Guides and Teachers increased markedly. We often use crystals, pendants and wands for psychic protection, purification and to clarify things of a spiritual nature.
