9 September 2010



So these are ammonites (fossilized snails). I believe these ones were actually found in Alberta (I know that Alberta is a good source for these). The ones in the picture are about an inch long (everything can look huge when photographed from a distance of 3 cm).

The reason I'm posting about them today is that we've got a bunch of them and they're quite beautiful (I coudn't find the right angle to shoot the picture at to adequately show the rainbow sheen they have - this is my lack as a photographer and not any comment on the quality of the ammonites).

We were selling them at $4.50 each and last week I got another batch from the same supplier at a better price, so much better in fact, that what was $4.50 is now $2.00! We got some bigger ones in as well (average 1.5 inches across) which will be selling at the $4.50 price.

According to the Crystal Bible 2 (Judy Hall)(which we sell)(and I'm paraphrasing the text):

Ammolite (pearlized ammonites) activate metaphysical powers and inter-dimensional exploration. Is particularly effective when placed on the soma chakra (?) and the third eye. Represents coming full circle and knowing a place for the first time, has the soul's path encoded within it and is a useful support for rebirthing. Spiritually takes you into your center and into completion. Activates personal empowerment and spiritual will and converts negative energy into a gently flowing positive spiral. Is a powerful karmic cleanser and when placed on the third eye releases mental obsessions and past life soul imperatives.

Also stimulates survival insticts and fosters perserverence. Is good for anything physically needing structure and clarity, relieves birth trauma that interferes with cranial sacral flow (spinal) and good for all cranial sacral work. Is an effective earth healing stone.

There's more...but I'm going to stop here. You're more than welcome to drop by and read the entire entry in our store reference copy and to have a look at these wonderful stones!
