ANCIENT AGATISED GASTROPOD SHELLS| emotional stability | grounding
Energy Protection, Healing, and Relaxation
Gastropod agatized shells form through a process called agatization, where silica-rich water gradually replaces the organic material of the shell with agate, a variety of chalcedony. Over millions of years, the shell becomes fossilized, preserving its original structure but with the intricate patterns and colors of agate and quartz.
These silicated shells are gastropod shells from the Cretaceous period. They are over one hundred million years old.
They are found in a hard rocky matrix on a small hill in India, about 1500 kms from the nearest coast.
In sanskrit these shells are called ” Dakshinavarti” and they are highly revered in hindu and buddhist cultures and associated with lots of powerful metaphysical properties. The shell carried by the Hindu God Vishnu (the Preserver in holy trinity in hinduism) is also a south, “sinistral” or left coiling shell.
Emotional Stability: Gastropod agatized shells are thought to promote emotional stability and balance by soothing and calming the mind. They may help alleviate feelings of stress, anxiety, and emotional tension, fostering a sense of inner peace and tranquility.
Grounding and Protection: Like other varieties of agate, gastropod agatized shells are believed to have grounding and protective qualities. They may help shield the wearer from negative energies and provide a sense of stability and security in challenging situations.
Enhanced Creativity: Gastropod agatized shells are thought to stimulate creativity and imagination. They may help unlock hidden talents, inspire new ideas, and encourage artistic expression and innovation.
Chakra Alignment: Gastropod agatized shells are associated with various chakras, depending on their color and composition. They may help balance and align the energy centers of the body, promoting harmony and vitality.
Spiritual Growth: Gastropod agatized shells are believed to facilitate spiritual growth and inner transformation. They may help deepen one's connection to the higher self, enhance intuition, and promote a greater sense of spiritual awareness and enlightenment.
Enhanced Communication: Some practitioners believe that gastropod agatized shells can enhance communication and interpersonal relationships. They may help facilitate clear and honest communication, improve listening skills, and foster deeper connections with others.
