Fossilised Wood comes from an ancient tree that has been buried and fossilised with the organic parts of its structure being replaced by minerals.

Fossilised (Petrified) Wood

Chakra: Root

Fossilised Wood (also known as Petrified Wood) is an extremely grounding and protecting stone which is also considered as being good for meditation.

It is believed to aid one in re-evaluating past lives and to fully understand and reach goal on one’s current life journey and lessons; it also aids one to distinguish between what is important and what is not, enabling one to stop worrying about the ‘small stuff’.

It is also a very calming stone, easing those times of stress and fears, helping to promote a feeling of well-being, safety and security.

Petrified Wood is also said to be the stone for business success.
