Tibetan Tektites Page 2

Tektites are made of a glassy material that is very silica rich, harder than natural glass and void of much water. This makes them different than the other glass like materials that are naturally found on the earth, like volcanic glass. Their origins are still debated by scientists. Some people feel they were originally meteoric material that had most of the iron content burn off as it came through our atmosphere. Other people believe that as asteroids or meteorites have impacted the earth, the surrounding rock, or pieces of the meteorite, gets basically hurled back into space. When they fall back, they are falling so fast through our atmosphere that they stretch or flatten. They have distinct round patty shapes, or some are like dog bones or dumb bells, while others are tear drop shape. They have pits and mini-craters and wonderful markings. They are also called impact glass. Most are black and opaque unless you get a very thin piece, then you can see they are amber or root beer brown in color. The exception is moldavite, which is a lovely green.
Tektites are mainly found near the sites of meteor craters. However, more tektites are being found farther away from the usual five known sites, which makes one wonder what impact sites we have yet to discover. Tibetan tektites, also known as Tibetanites, fit into this category. They could be part of the Australasian strewn field. They are similar in appearance to the Indochinites. But these were found in dry lake beds in North-central Tibet.
Viewed as gifts from heaven, the Tibetan tektites are cherished by the monks and lamas who use them as meditation stones. They aren't the only ones who feel these "stones" have positive energy. Many cultures feel the tektites can help you connect with extraterrestrial beings and knowledge. They are also used for protection, good health, and good luck. They have a higher vibration than many stones but not as buzzy as moldavite. Many people find Moldavite hard to be around. Tektites have a gentler yet still powerful energy. When working with them in pairs, one in each hand, you can really have a fascinating experience. If they start to feel kind of quiet, gently tap them together and they come right back to life. Very interesting tools to use in meditation, healing and energy work.
These particular tektites came from a Tibetan man who brought tektites and Tibetan quartz out of the country over 50 years ago. He just stored it all away until just a few years ago. We were able to get some wonderful quartz and tektites from him. We feel very lucky to have been able to have these powerful tools come our way. We haven't been able to find any others, so what we have is it.

Tibetan Tektite

This tektite has numerous pits and craters, as well as one area that looks like it has been stretched. It still has some of the iron infused mud in the craters. It can be easily cleaned, but many of our customers prefer to leave it there. We like the grounding effect it can have. This is a high vibrational tektite. Buzzy and vortex like. If you are stuck and need a blast to help get you on your path, this just may do the trick. #Tektite-43

Round Tibetan Tektite

This tektite has such a fun shape. It's like a ball that got slightly flattened. It fits so nicely in your hand. It has nice craters and dips all over the surface. It is a buzzy one, with vortex like energy. This gets amplified if you rub your thumb across it while holding it. Wild! #Tektite-44

Moon-Like Tibetan Tektite

Doesn't the surface of this tektite remind you of the surface of the moon? The one large crater is really neat. Other slightly elongated craters form a flower pattern next to it. The other side is almost completely smooth, except for a small cluster of stretched craters. It's a great looking tektite. And it's energy is pretty grounded. It works to clear and open the 6th chakra. A great tektite to astral travel with, and to meditate with.  #Tektite-46

Tibetan Tektite

This tektite has such a nice balance to it. The weight is nice, the pits and craters are evenly scattered over the surface and it just feels nice in your hand. One outer edge is smooth and one side has a slight thumb sized indentation. The energy is very unusual. It is very fluid-like. It would be a great one to work with if you are trying to match vibrations for healing work, or for astral travel, especially to the oceans. It's a neat tektite and it is ready to work!  #Tektite-47

1 3/4 inches tall x 2 inches wide x 1/2 inch thick.

Egg Shaped Tibetan Tektite

This is a fun little tektite. It's shaped like an egg...well, a bit of an irregular shaped egg. It has smooth areas, pits, craters, elongated craters and even a bit of a sharp edge. The energy of this tektite is all about traveling through the cosmos. If you want help astral traveling, or you want to travel to where there is ancient knowledge, then this could be for you. It is a lot of fun to hold onto. Just let yourself go! Sweet!  #Tektite-49
