Palm Root Jasper and Agate are a type of petrified wood. Millions of years ago, a tree fell and was buried. Over an unfathomable amount of time, the once-alive organic matter of the tree was replaced by minerals and crystals. In this replacement process, the crystal took the form of the tree. Magical, really. That you can hold the form of a tree that was alive millions of years ago and connect to the wisdom of all the times between. Associated with the earth element and the direction of north, trees are grounding and stabilizing, but in a way that differs from other grounding allies. Tree roots reach deep into the Earth, while tree branches reach up to the heavens. It is for this reason that trees are such a universal spiritual symbol: they are simultaneously connected to both Heaven and Earth. And with the magic of fossilization, we can connect to that energy and ancient wisdom at the same time.
Palm Root is the fossilized roots of trees--even more grounding and stabilizing. This ally helps us heal and balance our Earth Star and Root Chakras, connecting us to the plant and animal kingdom, Earth’s vibration, and reminding us of why we are here. Use it during meditation to keep you in the present moment and in your body and allow it to help connect to the ancient wisdom of the Earth, ancestors, and the plant and animal kingdoms.
