Meditation And Healing With Moldavite Crystal

By Thomas Phillips


A lot of people that touch or hold a piece of this especially unique crystal will report a strong reaction to it. It has a very powerful energy. Moldavite crystal was discovered many hundreds of years ago and is specific to Czechoslovakia. It is believed to have been created when a meteor crashed to earth approximately fifteen million years ago, scattering red-hot liquid as it entered our planet's atmosphere.

This particular gemstone is completely unique to one area but pieces have been found scattered around a large distance away, leading scientists to believe that the crystal was created before impact with the land and were splattered far and wide. In addition, pieces have been found washed into rivers and streams over time. The fragments in the soil of the area are usually found at around 20 centimetres below the surface.

The composition of the Moldavite is similar to glass. It is found in a range of dark greens, even ranging to greenish brown and is often described as olive, mossy or forest green. Some pieces are clearer and the swirls and wrinkles can be seen within the stone. Moldavite can be set into jewellery and worn as earrings, pendants or rings and was revered as a spiritual amulet and talisman for fertility and good fortune.

The gemstone is not particularly hard and will chip and break easily so any stone set into a piece of jewellery should be protected in its setting with a metal bezel or wire. It is best used as earrings or pendants and is too brittle for rings, having the same sort of strength as normal glass. Over time and use it will wear slightly.

The legends and folk tales surrounding this semi-precious stone are many, but a popular one is that it was the emerald that fell out of Lucifer's crown as he was flung out of heaven. It was treated as a very valuable gift for young couples embarking on a marriage as it was said to bring peace and harmony to their relationship, and also used to decorate common items such as walking sticks. Once it caught the interest of the upper class however, they decided the gem was for exclusive use of royalty and nobility.

Many consider the power of the crystal to be of the ongoing renewal of the earth. It is meant to assist in nurturing and protection as well as promote the wearers own spiritual growth. On its own, meditation is used to bring calm and relaxation, ridding the body and mind of stress. There have been many reports of people using Moldavite while meditating and experiencing visionary states and out of body travel.

Holding the stone within the hand causes many people to experience a tingling feeling directly around the stone, as well as a further sensation of heat in their chest, rising up to the face. While helpful in calming the mind and allowing one to see within to gain knowledge and perfection, it is strongly advised that users proceed with some caution and build up a tolerance to the effects.

Moldavite crystals are known for having powerful metaphysical properties as well as an energy that is easy for most people to connect to. It prevents negative energies and aids in separating one from unhealthy personal relationships.
