Rhyolite drum ground 1.5-3cm

Science & Origin of Rhyolite

Rhyolite is a silica-rich volcanic rock created from violent and explosive eruptions. As magma during an active eruption brews beneath the surface, granite begins to form. During this time, these subsurface, newly formed crystalline structures are occasionally ejected; creating what we call Rhyolite. Thankfully, this was a common occurrence in the ancient world, as this volcanic activity would devastate entire landmasses and destroy any and all life. Since the 20th century, there have only been 3 small "Rhyolite Eruptions" on record, with them occurring in Alaska (United States, 1912), Papua New Guinea (1953-1957), and Chile (2008).

Meaning & Energy

Rhyolite helps one better understand themselves and the complex universe around them. Energies full of strength, endurance, drive, and transformation flow from this stone, just like the magma that once created this volcanic rock. This flow helps one balance their polarities and realign their chakra column. As this is occurring, one's emotional and mental state will slowly change due to the foreign presence moving into your "core". As you build a Deeper connection with the energies being channeled through you, you may find comfort in absorbing and releasing the blockages that are built up within your soul. These emotions can stem from past traumas or fear for what's to come. As one is unable to reverse the past or control the future, they must live in the now.

Rhyolite awakens the strength within you, helping you power through the day and achieve some form of Joy and happiness. It helps to serve as a daily reminder to take time for yourself to actively create and pursue goals. These are vital to building one's confidence so that you can show yourself, and the universe, your true capabilities. You are capable of anything if your heart, soul, and mind are aligned. The limitation is not external, and never will be.
