Note: Each dream catcher is handmade and is unique, because no gemstone is the same. The delivered product may therefore differ slightly from the photo. However, the base (dream catcher itself) always looks the same.
This beautiful dreamcatcher with a diameter of 30 cm (ring, excluding strings) contains the rare Blue Opal petrified wood and Tiger's Eye. In addition, the dreamcatcher is also decorated with feathers. This azure and brown gemstone dreamcatcher is perfect for anyone who desires more calmness, courage and confidence so that you can work with purpose.
About Blue Opalized Wood
This gemstone is actually petrified wood combined with blue opal and bits of natural copper. Petrified wood (from the Latin root petro meaning ‘rock’ or ‘stone’; literally ‘wood turned into stone’) is the name given to a special type of fossilized remains of terrestrial vegetation. Petrified wood with Blue Opal was first found as pebbles and larger rounded stones in streams and near the slopes of three volcanoes in Indonesia’s West Java Province. The miners here found an ancient petrified forest (how cool is that?), which had been pushed over by the deluge of “stuff” (pyroclastic flow) from a volcanic explosion. Then - over the ages - the wood was fossilized and preserved by opaline silica.
About Tiger Eye
Tiger's eye is a protective and insightful stone. It makes you more self-aware and goal-oriented. Tiger Eye helps you to gain an overview and to integrate information into your consciousness. Also very suitable for study purposes. It gives you confidence and courage and helps you to resolve internal conflicts. Tiger's eye reduces indecision, doubts and shyness and it protects you against all kinds of fears and phobias and will help to remove mental blockages.
About feathers
Globally, feathers represent communication with higher (angelic) realms. Feathers are also seen as a symbol for protection, spirituality, speed, love, light and truth.
About dream catchers
The Native American Tribes assume that heaven is full of both good and bad dreams. A dream catcher is able to stop bad dreams and let the good dreams pass. The dream catcher's web "catches" bad dreams and the hole in the middle of the web lets the good dreams through. These slide along the feathers at the bottom of the dream catcher, towards the person sleeping underneath. The saying goes that the dream catcher should hang above your bed, where during the day the sun's rays burn away all bad dreams and make way for new dreams.
How Does Petrified Wood with Blue Opal Form?
The petrifaction process happens underground, when wood starts to get covered by sediments. It’s preserved at first due to lack of oxygen. Mineral-rich water that’s flowing through the sediments, then deposits minerals in the tree’s cells. As the tree’s lignin and cellulose start to decay, a stone mold also begins to form. How cool is that?!
Wood takes approximately a hundred years to petrify. Organic material needs to become petrified first before it completely decomposes. Once the tree’s organic material (the wood) actually decomposed, it was replaced with opaline silica. The water in that silica was very rich in dissolved copper, iron, and manganese. Those copper and manganese deposits are now found inside this blue opal!
Benefits of Petrified Wood
Petrified wood can be used to calm down survival-based fears. It helps to make one feel safe and secure and helps one feel ageless. Petrified wood helps you to set a pace and stay with that pace all day long because you are not hurried or moving too slowly, but moving forward in a good, steady way. It helps you to feel that indeed everything will be alright. It connects you to your Higher Self or Soul in such a way that you know that time is not really what it appears for there is no such thing as time. All we have is now, the present moment.

Cleansing and Activation of Gems
All jewelry and gemstones have been personally cleaned by me (Larissa) through a purification ritual. Your gemstone jewelry was also immediately treated by me with reiki energy and I have already activated the crystal for you as it is so beautifully called. This simply means that you can use your gemstone jewelry right away and take advantage of the amazing energy that gemstones can bring to you.
A large part of the gemstones in our web store are part of sessions with clients or live meditation sessions. Why? Very simple! Gemstones hold energy, just like us humans and everything around us that consists of energy. If you give a gem positive energy, it holds it as if it has its own memory. But gemstones also have their own frequency. Combine that with the energy that I have programmed into it for you, and you have a wonderfully beautiful energy item that you will enjoy for many years to come.
