Myth & Lore
Sometimes called the “Ancient Forest Stone,” Auralite-23 comes from a region of Canada once covered by primordial trees, giving it an almost prehistoric resonance. Modern lore claims it contains fragments of comets or meteoric metals—though this is more poetic than scientific.
Mystics describe it as a “mirror of the soul,” bringing buried wounds to the surface so they may be healed. It is often compared to Moldavite in intensity, though with a gentler, more structured approach.
Some practitioners say the stone chooses its owner, not the other way around.
