In recent times there has been a huge increase in interest in Moldavite and this interest then expanded to include all tektites. Many claim that Agni Manitite is a tektite, As far as I’m aware, it isn’t a true Tektite but is formed by volcanic eruptions, like Obsidian.

A Tektite is a rare natural glass formed when an asteroid strikes the Earth. They may be black, grey, brown, green (like Moldavite), creamy yellow (like Libyan Desert Glass). The energy of Tektites is very powerfully, and often quickly, transformative. They can bring powerful insights and profound changes in awareness and consciousness. I have yet to see if these pieces feel like Tektite, or Obsidian, or something completely different.

I’ve been following threads and found that Cintamani can mean many things. The meaning is ‘wishing stone’ or ‘wish fulfilling gem’ or ‘magic jewel’ and the Chintamani appears in both hindu and Buddhist traditions. In Buddhism the Chintamani is said to be one of four relics that came in a chest that fell from the sky – a stone with the Om Mani Padme Hum mantra inscribed on it.

I’ve discovered that there is also a volcanic stone called Saffordite from Arizona – sometimes called Arizona Tektite, though it isn’t a tektite – that is known as Chintamani. https://www.rareearthgallerycc.com/blog-entry/78/saffordite

I haven’t spent much time with it yet so I’m sure I have lots to learn. So far I have found that it has the quick, transformative energy that we usually associate with Tektites but also has a quiet depth.
