This is a rare and unusual OCEAN JASPER MOSS AGATE mix crystal skull! This is a naturally occurring mixture of stones. It has a lot of deep greens mixed with white/cream accents, and a touch of golden yellow. There is a lovely vug lined with sparkly DRUZY crystals in the base of the left side of the head. Vugs are natural formations, sometimes also known as "crystal cave inclusions", and considered highly collectible.
The latest research into Ocean Jasper has proven that it is actually a variety of Chalcedony. Chalcedony (pronounced kal-sydney) is a a variety of Quartz, and actually the “mother stone” of various other minerals - banded Chalcedony is known as Agate, black as Onyx, red as Carnelian, opaque green with red spots as Bloodstone, etc. Ocean Jasper can also contain inclusions of Quartz, Agate, Feldspar, and Jasper. Ocean Jasper only comes from 2 deposits in the NW part of the island nation of Madagascar. Its continued popularity means that access to new rough material is limited. "Ocean Jasper" is a trade name. It's also sometimes called "Orbicular Jasper".
Moss Agate is a variety of Dendritic Agate, which is in the Chalcedony family. (pronounced kal-sid-knee) It contains inclusions of green minerals such as Chlorite and/or Hornblende which form in moss-like, or plant-like, patterns: hence the name.
There are a few small organic spots here and there that you can feel subtly as you run your fingers over the stone. ALL inclusions present come from 100% natural formations in the stone. Much nicer 'in person' than the photos can show. Check out how it works with subtle energies below!
It weighs about 9.7oz and measures approximately 3" inches long X 2 3/16" inches tall. Code-022525-22353
Ocean Jasper is a very calming and soothing energy. It encourages the love of one's self and others, a healing of one's emotions and brings a sense of peace.
It is connectedness to nature and all of the earth and therefore is very attractive to the Devas (also known as Nature Spirits or fairy / faerie kingdom.)
It is used to encourage the acceptance of responsibility and it also is thought to help increase patience. Ocean jasper is a very protective stone, and the orbs or "eyes" found in the stone are considered to enhance this protective quality, especially in regard to what is called the ‘evil eye.’ It is one of the most protective stones in the Jasper family.
Ocean Jasper is used in some meditation techniques, such as gazing or scrying, especially if highly polished.
In Crystal Healing, it is thought to be useful removing toxins from the body and the aura, as well as with digestive problems.
Ocean Jasper is associated with the Heart Chakra, but can be used with all of the Chakras.
In Crystal Healing, Moss Agate is often used with people who are working to overcome addictive behaviors, as well as with issues of circulation and digestive or intestinal disorders.
It is felt to possess a frequency or energy of overall healing and restoration.
Moss Agate is associated with the Heart Chakra.
Native legends speak of crystal skulls as an inheritance from ancient times. Said to “talk and sing” they are believed to carry messages for all mankind, including what may be discovered when we overcome our fear of death.
The first layer you encounter when working with any skull, including Synergy, is "to remember." This is the first layer - and this layer has many other layers within it. What you are to called to remember is who you really are. It's so easy to get caught up in the daily things and forget that each life is short and sweet, even with the difficulties. The real you is a Being of Light. You are a Spiritual Being, inside of a physical body. "Remember."
