moonstones and Rainbow Moonstones are very similar but crucially different. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth stones are \u003cstrong\u003efeldspar minerals\u003c\/strong\u003e and have the same hardness on the Mohs scale; both tend to have a creamy white base and both display a glowing, pearly sheen that looks like moonlight glowing from within the stone (a phenomenon known as

signature flash of colour, like moon shine, from within moonstone is caused by Albite inclusions in traditional moonstone, however this\u003cstrong\u003e adularescent effect\u003c\/strong\u003e is caused by a similar mechanism but different chemical inclusions in Labradorite, and thus Rainbow Moonstone as well. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe inner glow of Rainbow Moonstone is caused by the refraction of light between layered minerals: this is the same mechanism that leads to the \u003cstrong\u003eiridescent Schiller Effect\u003c\/strong\u003e in Labradorite. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFurthermore, the adularescence in traditional moonstone manifests in flashes of white, whilst the adularescence in Rainbow Moonstone manifests in spectacular flashes of blue, and sometimes other colours of the rainbow (hence the name \u003cstrong\u003eRainbow Moonstone\u003c\/strong\u003e). \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConsequently, these stones are

caused by a similar mechanism but different chemical inclusions in Labradorite, and thus Rainbow Moonstone as well. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe inner glow of Rainbow Moonstone is caused by the refraction of light between layered minerals: this is the same mechanism that leads to the \u003cstrong\u003eiridescent Schiller Effect\u003c\/strong\u003e in

'\u003cstrong\u003eAmmolite\u003c\/strong\u003e'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmmolite\u003c\/strong\u003e is the official gemstone of Alberta. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow The Ammonites Became Fossils\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen an ammonite creature died, it became fossilised in the process as follows: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmmonite bodies sunk into the seabed \u003cstrong\u003esediment\u003c\/strong\u003e, and over time the many sediment layers hardened into \u003cstrong\u003erock\u003c\/strong\u003e, preserving the fossils within.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThroughout this process, bacteria decomposed the ammonite bodies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis decomposition affected redox conditions in the marine environment, leading to dissolved \u003cstrong\u003eminerals\u003c\/strong\u003e such as \u003cstrong\u003ecarbonates\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ephosphates\u003c\/strong\u003e becoming less soluble in water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe minerals were precipitated out of the water, and enveloped the ammonite in a solid \u003cstrong\u003econcretion\u003c\/strong\u003e, which ensured the fossil and its \u003cstrong\u003enacreous shell\u003c\/strong\u003e was preserved for thousands of millennia.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome minerals seeped into the ammonite remains, leading to \u003cstrong\u003emineral replacements\u003c\/strong\u003e and ornately coloured interiors. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe rock covering the \u003cstrong\u003eammonite fossils\u003c\/strong\u003e was then either naturally eroded, or excavated by humans, to expose the fossils.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Are Iridescent Ammonites Made Of?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eiridescent shell\u003c\/strong\u003e of an ammonite is formed from the mineral \u003cstrong\u003eAragonite\u003c\/strong\u003e, a component of \u003cstrong\u003eNacre\u003c\/strong\u003e (also known as \u003cstrong\u003eMother of Pearl\u003c\/strong\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs light bounces back through the layers of Aragonite, a \u003cstrong\u003erainbow spectrum\u003c\/strong\u003e of colour can be observed due to the interplay of light travelling through the layers. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThick layers of Aragonite typically leads to shades of red being observed, such as in \u003cstrong\u003ered iridescent ammonites\u003c\/strong\u003e, whilst thinner layers lead to shimmering greens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thinnest layers of Aragonite lead to rare blue and violet hues being observed. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFlashing Iridescent Colours Of Ammonites\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs you move an iridescent ammonite in the presence of light, one can observe the colours moving, changing, and flashing in what is known as \u003cstrong\u003echromatic shift\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOther Names For Iridescent Ammonites\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIridescent Ammonites\u003c\/strong\u003e are sometimes called \u003cstrong\u003eOpalescent Ammonites\u003c\/strong\u003e in reference to their opal-like appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to their fiery hues, \u003cstrong\u003eRed Iridescent Ammonites\u003c\/strong\u003e are often referred to as \u003cstrong\u003eFire Ammonites\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIridescent Ammonites Myth And Legend\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreek myth gifted the \u003cstrong\u003efossils\u003c\/strong\u003e with their famous name; the coiled shell of this ancient marine mollusc resembles the horns of rams, therefore its remains were classified as ‘ammonites’, after the Greek ram god \u003cstrong\u003eAmmon\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ein India, the fossils are still referred to as ‘\u003cstrong\u003eShaligrams\u003c\/strong\u003e’ (or ‘\u003cstrong\u003eSaligrams\u003c\/strong\u003e’) and worshipped as representations of the Hindu God Vishnu.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo many Hindus these stones are sacred, for they have the power to expel bad karma and cleanse people of sin before their death, enabling them to enter the afterlife.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuffalo Stones were thus named because the ammonite was believed to be a good luck talisman which ensured a fruitful buffalo hunt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tribe also revered this \u003cstrong\u003egem like fossil\u003c\/strong\u003e for its purported medicinal powers. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIridescent Ammonites Metaphysical Properties\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIridescent ammonites\u003c\/strong\u003e, especially those with gem-like shells, are believed to have powerful \u003cstrong\u003emetaphysical properties\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese fossils are believed to bring prosperity, wisdom, and knowledge to their user. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGem ammonites\u003c\/strong\u003e are said to have a detoxifying energy that develops focus and a sense of balance. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIridescent Ammonites Chakras\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIridescent Ammonites are most associated with the \u003cstrong\u003eRoot Chakra\u003c\/strong\u003e due to their strong connection to the Earth as \u003cstrong\u003eorganic gemstones\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen used with this chakra, these stones offer protection, grounding, and stability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this reason, they can be used to help strengthen rocky relationships. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIridescent Ammonites In Feng Shui\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMetaphysically, \u003cstrong\u003eFeng Shui\u003c\/strong\u003e masters highly recommend the use of ammonites in the study of their art, and as a way of gaining knowledge, wealth, and prosperity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSome Feng Shui practitioners believe ammonites store all the knowledge in the universe, and strengthen people’s \u003cstrong\u003eQi\u003c\/strong\u003e (life force)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe red colours present in their \u003cstrong\u003eiridescent flash\u003c\/strong\u003e signifies vitality, passion, and stimulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSacred Geometry Of Ammonite Spirals\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cstrong\u003esacred geometry\u003c\/strong\u003e, the spiral shape has powerful spiritual significance, and signifies growth and expansion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs \u003cstrong\u003eammonite shells\u003c\/strong\u003e display distinctive spiral shapes, ammonites embody this spiritual meaning of growth too. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn ammonite shell is a perfect example of the sacred \u003cstrong\u003eGolden Mean Spiral\u003c\/strong\u003e, a symbol of the infinite \u003cstrong\u003eFibonacci Sequence \u003c\/strong\u003eand the revered \u003cstrong\u003eGolden Ratio\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a result, ammonites are believed to be strongly symbolic of order and perfection in not just the natural world, but the entire universe. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow To Take Care Of Iridescent Ammonites\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasuring 4.5 to 5.5 on the Mohs scale, this stone is rather fragile and great care should be taken not to damage its delicate surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo clean the fossil, simply use water and dry it afterwards with a soft cloth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTake care not to expose iridescent ammonites to heat, cold, or sunlight for too long, because these elements can cause the shell to crack and flake. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIridescent Ammonites Collections\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis

Ammonites? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmmonites\u003c\/strong\u003e are a group of extinct molluscs which somewhat resembled a shelled squid when they were alive. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese \u003cstrong\u003eancient sea creatures\u003c\/strong\u003e had tentacles like the modern octopus, and spiral shells like Nautilus creatures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey first appeared on the fossil record 240 million years ago, in the \u003cstrong\u003eTriassic Period\u003c\/strong\u003e, and died out 65 million years ago with the dinosaurs during the \u003cstrong\u003eCretaceous-Tertiary Mass Extinction Event\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003efossilised remains\u003c\/strong\u003e of these sea creatures are perhaps the most \u003cstrong\u003epopular fossils\u003c\/strong\u003e on the market today. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis particular

dates back to the \u003cstrong\u003eCretaceous Period\u003c\/strong\u003e, meaning it is 120 million years old. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere Do You Find Iridescent Ammonites? \u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis ammonite was originally found in the jungles of Mahajanga on the North West Coast of \u003cstrong\u003eMadagascar\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMadagascar is famed for its riches of fossils and natural diversity, and a wide variety of fossils and crystals can be found there. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGem quality iridescent ammonite shells\u003c\/strong\u003e are most famously found in Canada, where they are called '\u003cstrong\u003eAmmolite\u003c\/strong\u003e'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmmolite\u003c\/strong\u003e is the official gemstone of Alberta. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow The Ammonites Became Fossils\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen an ammonite creature died, it became fossilised in the process as follows: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmmonite bodies sunk into the seabed \u003cstrong\u003esediment\u003c\/strong\u003e, and over time the many sediment layers hardened into \u003cstrong\u003erock\u003c\/strong\u003e, preserving the fossils within.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThroughout this process, bacteria decomposed the ammonite bodies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis decomposition affected redox conditions in the marine environment, leading to dissolved \u003cstrong\u003eminerals\u003c\/strong\u003e such as \u003cstrong\u003ecarbonates\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003ephosphates\u003c\/strong\u003e becoming less soluble in water.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe minerals were precipitated out of the water, and enveloped the ammonite in a solid \u003cstrong\u003econcretion\u003c\/strong\u003e, which ensured the fossil and its \u003cstrong\u003enacreous shell\u003c\/strong\u003e was preserved for thousands of millennia.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSome minerals seeped into the ammonite remains, leading to \u003cstrong\u003emineral replacements\u003c\/strong\u003e and ornately coloured interiors. \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe rock covering the \u003cstrong\u003eammonite fossils\u003c\/strong\u003e was then either naturally eroded, or excavated by humans, to expose the fossils.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Are Iridescent Ammonites Made Of?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eiridescent shell\u003c\/strong\u003e of an ammonite is formed from the mineral \u003cstrong\u003eAragonite\u003c\/strong\u003e, a component of \u003cstrong\u003eNacre\u003c\/strong\u003e (also known as \u003cstrong\u003eMother of Pearl\u003c\/strong\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs light bounces back through the layers of Aragonite, a \u003cstrong\u003erainbow spectrum\u003c\/strong\u003e of colour can be observed due to the interplay of light travelling through the layers. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThick layers of Aragonite typically leads to shades of red being observed, such as in \u003cstrong\u003ered iridescent ammonites\u003c\/strong\u003e, whilst thinner layers lead to shimmering greens.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe thinnest layers of Aragonite lead to rare blue and violet hues being observed. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFlashing Iridescent Colours Of Ammonites\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs you move an iridescent ammonite in the presence of light, one can observe the colours moving, changing, and flashing in what is known as

fiery hues, \u003cstrong\u003eRed Iridescent Ammonites\u003c\/strong\u003e are often referred to as \u003cstrong\u003eFire Ammonites\u003c\/strong\u003e. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIridescent Ammonites Myth And Legend\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGreek myth gifted the \u003cstrong\u003efossils\u003c\/strong\u003e with their famous name; the coiled shell of this ancient marine mollusc resembles the horns of rams, therefore its remains were classified as ‘ammonites’, after the Greek ram god \u003cstrong\u003eAmmon\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ein India, the fossils are still referred to as ‘\u003cstrong\u003eShaligrams\u003c\/strong\u003e’ (or ‘\u003cstrong\u003eSaligrams\u003c\/strong\u003e’) and worshipped as representations of the Hindu God Vishnu.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo many Hindus these stones are sacred, for they have the power to expel bad karma and cleanse people of sin before their death, enabling them to enter the afterlife.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuffalo Stones were thus named because the ammonite was believed to be a good luck talisman which ensured a fruitful buffalo hunt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tribe also revered this \u003cstrong\u003egem like fossil\u003c\/strong\u003e for its purported medicinal powers. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIridescent

\u003cstrong\u003emetaphysical properties\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese fossils are believed to bring prosperity, wisdom, and knowledge to their

due to their strong connection to the Earth as \u003cstrong\u003eorganic gemstones\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen used with this chakra, these stones offer protection,

spiritual significance, and signifies growth and expansion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs \u003cstrong\u003eammonite shells\u003c\/strong\u003e display distinctive spiral shapes, ammonites embody this spiritual meaning of growth too. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn ammonite shell is a perfect example of the sacred \u003cstrong\u003eGolden Mean Spiral\u003c\/strong\u003e, a symbol of the

Ammonites\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMeasuring 4.5 to 5.5 on the Mohs scale, this stone is rather fragile and great care should be taken not to damage its delicate
