Fossils – The Symbol of Spiritual Connection with the Past

The beautiful fossils, also known as remnants of history, remind us that the past is still a part of us. Their name derives from the Latin word “fossus,” which translates to “dug up.” Fossils are formed through a combination of plant, animal, and other organism remains, which, through geological processes, create these enchanting formations.

This is why many fossils contain intriguing shapes of shells, mollusks, snails, and skeletons, as well as imprints of animal and plant bodies. Fossils are commonly found in areas with sedimentary rocks. It is not unusual to find them in metamorphic rocks of sedimentary origin.

From a scientific perspective, fossils appeal to researchers and paleontologists. This is because they can help determine the exact age of the rocks in which they are found.

Natural processes also facilitate the symbiosis between minerals such as quartz, agate, and jasper with fossils, contributing to their fascinating colors.

Amazingly, the process of fossil formation can take up to 20 million years.

Color Characteristics

The colors that appear on the surface of fossils are often in earthy tones – neutral beige, brown, milky white, or yellowish. In the jewelry industry, they are often used with sand opal, amethyst, coral, and jasper.

Did You Know?

Fossils and coral minerals are not only great for jewelry making. Due to their ability to eliminate chemical impurities like chlorine and formaldehyde, fossils are used for water purification filters. Fossils are also used in the pharmaceutical industry as an ingredient in medicinal supplements. Fossils have healing properties thanks to the potassium, calcium, magnesium, and sodium they contain.

Healing and Mystical Properties

From prehistoric times to the present, fossils have been revered in many ancient cultures. Many believed fossils can bring longevity and protection, just like a talisman. The energy they carry is associated with the connection to our ancestors. They are used in alternative medicine for astral travel.

Fossils help to increase concentration and knowledge and enhance the intuitive abilities of their owners.

Fossils carry the wisdom of life. If you are at a crossroads in your life, wear fossils. They can be used as a source of security and inner peace.

In alternative medicine, fossils are considered a miraculous remedy for bone and joint problems.

It is said that their healing properties help with atrophied muscles and fractures of the upper and lower limbs.

Fossils and Zodiac Signs

Fossils are considered a universal semi-precious stone, suitable for representatives of all zodiac signs.

The energy they channel is connected to the Earth.

Care and Maintenance

As fossils are a form of quartz, they are quite durable compared to some other gemstones. Their maintenance is easy and usually involves cleaning with lukewarm soapy water.

Despite their sturdy structure, experts recommend avoiding treating them with chemicals like bleach, sulfuric acid, and others. The porous structure of fossils may absorb the chemical, potentially changing their natural color. It is also advisable not to expose the stone to extreme temperature fluctuations, which could affect its color and texture.

It’s best to avoid rubbing the stone against other objects - that could scratch or damage its surface.
