If you have ever wanted a tool to assist opening up your crown chakra into other worlds and possibilities, we suggest you try tektite! It has cosmic vibes similar to what you find in moldavite (which is having quite a moment right now.) Moldavite is actually a kind of tektite, but this tektite is far more abundant on the planet and therefore more accessible and affordable. Far from ordinary, its cosmic connection is super high vibe and easily felt. It appears to be dull brown at first glance, but when you hold it to the light, it will have some transparency and a very interesting texture. That distinctive look is because it is technically *not* a crystal—it is actually meteoric glass and highly energetic!

The immense heat of a meteor strike causes the surface of the earth to melt and merge with the cosmic matter of the meteor. The mixture of liquefied space and earth matter flies high into the sky and cools quickly as it rains back to earth as little pieces of tektite - amazing!

Tektite is not only known to help with connecting to other worlds, but also creating connections with distant family and friends (which many of us need to do in 2021.) Place it on your third eye and meditate on opening communication or developing telepathy.

Tektite isn’t just for space cadets! The fact that it is a mix of space and earth material represents yin and yang, a mix of grounding and ascension, giving it a balanced energy. It’s also a great assistant for creativity and spiritual growth.
