Moldavite

Moldavite is nicknamed “The Stone of Transformation” and is thought to have been created from a meteorite that crash-landed 14.8 million years ago. It is believed to have crashed in the present-day Czech Republic, more specifically, the Bohemian Plateau. As you can imagine, pieces are scattered throughout the area and are found almost at random. The impact itself was estimated at six trillion megatons and is believed to have passed completely through the Earth's crust into the planet's core. Moldavite is a crystal that radiates energy, and upon first touch, you can feel the warmth it gives off. This warmth is so common that it has developed the term "Moldavite flush". The "flush" sends vibrations through the body and will imbue the user in a light tingly sensation. Some new users say it is a little over-whelming and will take it off or out of there pocket periodically as they feel “lightheaded”. Its usually recommended to always have a grounding stone nearby when you first start working with it to help avoid Moldavite being too strong. Over time, the strength will be less overwhelming as you get used to the stone.
