Crinoid Fossil

A crinoid fossil is the ancient remains of a marine animal, often called a "sea lily" or "feather star," related to starfish and sea urchins, known for their flower-like appearance with feathery arms on a stalk, with the most common fossils being the stacked, button-like plates (columnals) from their stems, often found in Paleozoic limestones and indicating ancient shallow marine environments. 

​

These fossils often exhibit a stem-like structure with feathery arms, resembling a flower or lily. The fossilized remains typically appear in shades of deep brown or black, though they can also be found in lighter hues. Crinoid Fossils have a hexagonal crystal structure and a Mohs hardness of 2.5.

​​

Crinoid Fossils hold within them the energy of Universal and Ancient knowledge, making it a powerful tool for spiritual growth and emotional healing. They are known for their ability to transmute negative energy, help release past-life karmic patterns and aid in stability in this lifetime. They are an excellent tool for manifestation, grounding and growth. Their calming energy also helps to promote a sense of peace and safety.

They are often associated with Root and Earth Star chakras for deep connection. 

​

They symbolize beauty, tenderness, interconnectedness, and the strength of ancient life.

​

Crinoid fossils can be used in various ways, such as holding them during meditation to enhance grounding, displaying them as decorative pieces to invite calming energy into a space, or carrying them as a pocket keepsake or in jewelry to keep their protective and stabilizing properties close.
