Petrified wood is formed when ancient organic tree material is fossilized and replaced by another mineral, usually chalcedony or quartz. Some of the more impressive specimens have opal and pyrite replacement.
The vibration of petrified wood helps one focus on what can be helped and not “sweat the small stuff.” It is a transformation stone that helps to find the next step on the path. Use petrified wood to stay grounded and guided during times of change or when change is needed. For advanced practitioners, meditation with this stone can help access information from past lives.
