Petrified Wood Branch Segment
Petrified wood is one of stones that I grab when I'm feeling emotionally wobby and in need of significant stability. Petrified wood is one of those elemental chameleons that began as a member of the plant kingdom and then hopped over to the mineral kingdom. Often, the patterns left in the wood toddle off into the animal kingdom or behave in some other way as a "figure stone", which means that the patterns look like something. It is incredibly good for grounding high light energies, creating balance and stability, protection, care, and endurance.
These branch segments are awesome. It emphasizes the real woody tree outer bark with one natural and one polished end. This is a great branch. It has a knotty hollow that you almost expect to see a miniature squirrel to crawl out of at any minute. :) The polished top looks like it has a flame shape in it.
This segment is approximately 3 3/4 X 2 1 3/4" and weighs .95 lbs.
