Petrified Wood is known for its deep grounding energies, which make it a formidable tool for promoting deeper meditative states and a greater connection to the Earth element. As a fossil, Petrified Wood brings us a wealth of knowledge collected over millions of years, and is often used by those who wish to shake off negative emotions, since it facilitates a patient, mature viewpoint and logical pragmatism. Used as a stone for inspiring inner peace and emotional balance, Petrified Wood resonates strongly with the Root Chakra to encourage security and comfort, but it is also a formidable gem for working with the Sacral Chakra and Third Eye Chakra. This is because Petrified Wood is a fount from which to draw determination and dedication for our personal and spiritual journeys, sparking motivation for growth. It is a particularly stimulating stone for those looking to engage their metaphysical abilities, attunement to nature, and awareness of nature spirits, magnifying our connection with Mother Earth. It is a truly empowering stone to work with, and nurtures a great depth of self-trust, dependability, and awareness of our actions.

Petrified Wood is a fossilized wood that can be found in a variety of hues, from beige, brown, and black to red, green, and yellow. The natural organic material of the wood has become mineralized over millions of years, leaving the structure and "grain" of the wood preserved, although how distinct the pattern is can vary from piece to piece. This is also why Petrified Wood is sometimes referred to as Agatized Wood, since the replacing mineral is often a variety of cryptocrystalline Quartz. However, it is hardly the only type of Petrified Wood, since the material can also become mineralized by Calcite, Opal, Pyrite, or other minerals.
