Shungite... 2 Billion Years Old
An Ancient Healing Stone For Today

Shungite is very old... ancient in fact... said to be around 2 billion years old. It is an extraordinarily positive stone... and using it may bring you a variety of blessings. This is an amazing stone, and one that is beneficial to a healthy life. It is the only known natural material known to contain fullerenes, which are powerful anti-oxidants.

Fullerenes were brought to our attention when research on them gained the scientists a Nobel prize.

This is because the fullerenes in this stone will cleanse water then infuse it with a potent healing vibration.

The energy embodied within this ancient stone is said to absorb and eliminate anything that is a health hazard to human life... and it has active metaphysical properties with strong healing powers.

Why Would You Use It

There has been dedicated research done on fullerenes... and the scientists doing this research won the Noble prize as it was deemed that their work was so important to mankind. Fullerenes are powerful anti-oxidants... and their presence in this stone seems to be quite unique. It has been noted that this stone has strong healing qualities... and that Shungite will help to neutralize any organism within your body that is harmful to you.

This is an amazing claim... but this black stone has been in use for a very long time in Russia where they have been documenting these qualities. Since this stone was discovered in Russia in the 1700's, they have been recording amazing results from its use.

Where Does It Come From

This is a rare stone... and has been found only in the Karelia area in Russia. It is not new to people of the region, as Czar Peter was known to have come to the region to use water that had been infused with this mineral.

The origin of this ancient, 2 billion year old stone is clouded in mystery... as how it came to occur on this planet is unclear. Some say Shungite may have been formed in ancient oceans, and ended up on the land when land forms changed.

Others think maybe it came to earth from outer space on a meteorite. Really no one knows and it seems to me that scientists are guessing at how it formed. How it formed is interesting but is it crucial to know this? What is important to me is how this stone works in your life, and the fact that it contains Fullerenes.

The actual piece of Shungite stone that my pendulum is made from has amazing energy... and it seems to resonate as powerfully as stone pendulums made from quartz. It is a powerful tool to use as well as to have in the general area as a protective stone.

How To Use It

I keep both my Shungite pendulum and my lovely ball made from this stone next to my computer... one on each side of it.

Although I chose the pendulum because out of all the pieces of this stone it had the strongest vibration... it is good to keep it close as I often use a pendulum.

This pendulum sits upside down on a small stand next to me....where it has a dual role in negating electromagnetic energy from the computer... and is close when I wish to use a pendulum.

There have been many health benefits documented from wearing jewelry made from this stone.

Although Shungite jewelry is not common... you may find pieces of it at retailers who sell the stone. This is an extraordinary stone to keep within your aura... and a piece of stone may be used instead, if jewelry is not available.
