Shungite Stones

Shungite was formed billions of years ago in the Paleoproterozoic Era. It is only found one place in the world, Russia, where it extends over a vast 3,000+ square mile area. It was first described from an ancient deposit near Shunga village, in Karelia, Russia, from where it gets its name. Shungite contains trace amounts of fullerenes. Fullerenes (also known as buckyballs) are molecules composed entirely of carbon, in the form of a hollow sphere, ellipsoid, or tube. All carbon, which Shungite is 98% carbon, was stardust at one point. So, it shouldn’t be surprising that fullerenes were recently found in young planetary nebulas as well as clouds of cosmic dust surrounding distant stars.

It is the only natural material in existence to have the presence of hollow molecular carbon cages, known as fullerenes, embedded within this mineral, which allows it to neutralize the EMFs. The scientists who discovered fullerenes won a Noble Prize in Chemistry in 1996. The natural existence of fullerenes remained unclear until it was verified in deposits of Shungite.

Healing Properties:

One of the most beneficial uses of the Shungite metaphysical properties is to protect against electrical magnetic fields, also known as EMFs. We are constantly surrounded by technology—cell phones, computers, televisions, Wi-Fi and the list goes on and on. Each of these radiate man-made, EMFs. Many people experience EMF sensitivity, and EMFs have been linked to constriction of blood flow to major organs, poor digestion, and immune systems, increased blood pressure, heart rate and blood sugar, arthritis, anxiety, and depression.

For the smaller ones, we love to use them on indoor plants for increasing the vitality of the plant. It can help for water drainage and for the fertilization of indoor plants. Plant several small tumbled Shungite in the soil. Watch for the increase in luster which indicates that the plant is healthier in general and has increased vitality.
