petrified wood is often confused with real wood as it retains the details of the bark and cellular structure. Petrified wood forms when wood is buried by sediment keeping it protected from natural elements. Rain water pushes dissolved solids like opal through the sediment, replacing the original plant material in the wood. This collection of petrified wood slices is from Madagascar and has been polished by hand.
Metaphysical: Because of the dozens of years it takes for wood to petrify, the fossil greatly enhances patience especially in times of change. Petrified wood strengthens courage and self-will, and assists in inner-transformation. Petrified wood also aids in comforting through the journey of evolution.
