Vatican Stone (Frosterley Marble)
Science & Origin of Vatican Stone
Vatican Stone, also known as Frosterley Marble, is a bituminous limestone with fossilized crinoids, coral, and brachiopod inclusions. This stone is technically not a marble but appears to show the same traits when polished, as well as being used similarly as an interior decorative stone. The name of this stone comes from the village of Frosterley located in Stanhope, County Durham, England where it is believed to have formed over 325 million years ago. This is the only known deposit of this stone and is highly valued for religious buildings worldwide.
Ties To Vatican City
The name “Vatican Stone”, comes from the amount of Frosterley Marble that has been used to decorate various buildings throughout Vatican City. This can be found on alters, pillars, steps, tiles, and a variety of other religious artifacts throughout many churches and official buildings. In addition, the Durham Cathedral, once known as the Cathedral Church of Christ, has Frosterley Marble Decorative pillars dating back to 1350 A.D. Another interesting use of Frosterley Marble can be found in the pulpit in the St. Thomas Cathedral in Mumbai, India, which was built around the 1700s, nearly 300 years ago.
Meaning & Origin
Vatican Stone is a powerful meditation stone that we recommend to anyone seeking to slow their emotional body and ground their thoughts and ideas. This crystal is over 300 million years old with ancient life imbued within, thus containing the power of a biological entity to assist and protect you throughout your daily life. Anxiety relief is a huge benefit when using this stone daily, as it reassures the etheric shield you wear each day around your aura, as well as increasing the confidence you hold within yourself. The universe can be unsettling and nerve racking, but once you realize the power to change and security is within, you can conquer the challenges in your life through breath, action, and love.
From Past to Present
As a practitioner of expanding your spirituality, Vatican Stone can help you understand where you have been in a past life, to help you better direct where you are going in this life. Souls come to Earth many times to serve a purpose, and it is extremely irresponsible, and a waste of energy to repeat the same lessons twice. That is the foundation of dream work and the symbolism your subconscious is trying to relay to you each time you enter the dream world. Meditating with Vatican Stone, and using it as an ancient amulet in reiki sessions provide a deeper look into your previous experiences here on Earth, and can assist in the altering of the current path in which you have embarked on already. We are the creators of our universe each and every time we come through to this planet, and that ultimately means we have a choice in not only our actions but our reactions as well.
