Petrified wood forms when trees are buried under mud, or volcanic ash, the lack of oxygen in the mud and ash slows the decay of the wood allowing minerals to replace the structure of the wood and turns it into stone one time.

Petrified wood is great for those who are feeling stuck in the muck and mire of life, and can assist with setting new goals, and reaching them. This is a very grounding stone, and can help one recenter their life.
