Stones are approx. 1/4"-1/2") Gobi Desert Agate is said to be a stone of Transition, Transformation and Transcendence. These high energy stones are the product of many seasons of various weather conditions and powerful elements, including sand, evaporated sea water and, in some cases, snow. As a result, each Gobi Agate nodule (or Agate Eyes) contains a historic record of the earth that dates back thousands — or even millions — of years. These stones were considered in ancient times to be magic, as they developed in shallow beds under the desert surface and would sometimes appear like magic after high winds or sand storms uncovered them. Those winds and the other powerful elements helped give these stones their unique pattern, length, color and energy. Each color of Gobi Desert Agate is said to have its own unique property. For example, a gold-orange hued nodule is thought to represent creativity within one's self by clearing away negative energy to allow the free flow of ideas and experiences. Practitioners use Gobi Desert Agate to help those who repress feelings and emotions to achieve a gentle release of this "buildup" that can cause mental strain or illness. Because of the size of each Gobi Desert Agate nodule included in this listing, you can use this item as a carry piece. Gobi Agate is also popular in jewelry and gemstone bead form, as a bracelet, necklace or pendant.
