An especially potent bb to work with during different phases of the lunar cycle, they can enhance the energy of that moon phase (eg. Intention setting, manifestation, visualization during new moon, illumination, cord cutting/letting go during full moon). These bbs are excellent for balance, and for understanding the natural ebb & flow/tide of life. Meteorites in general can be strong tools of transformation, simultaneously overwhelming and grounding sometimes.

Found in Northwest Africa in 2017 (my supplier got it from Morocco), they exhibit white to beige angular class in a medium gray matrix.

As defined by the Meteoritical society: Feldspathic breccia refers to a breccia of primarily feldspathic lithologies.

Lunar meteorites are lunar rocks that were ejected from the Moon by impacts and later fell to the Earth as meteorites.

These formed when meteors hit the lunar surface and dislodged a “splash back” of lunar debris (this is how the moon’s craters are formed!). Sometimes this lunar debris finds its way to earth in the form of lunar meteorites.

Feldspathic breccia that has been officially and unequivocally identified as a lunar meteorite by researchers at the University of Washington. My supplier sends off a sample and they test & verify it, you can find all of the info on The Meteoritical Society website.

This is 1 of 321 approved meteorites classified as lunar. NWA 11428 is the official meteorite name, you can see its entry in the Meteoritical Bulletin Database here. This link has more info about the petrography and geochemistry.

AVOID WATER & SELF CARE PRODUCTS

Avoid exposure to water (especially saltwater and chlorine), lotions, sprays, soap, etc because they can damage the elastic over time - and this can lead to snapping. Even the oils and sweat on our skin can wear out the elastic eventually.

Remove your bracelet when bathing, swimming, doing the dishes, etc. These activities can also dull the crystals.

STORAGE + CLEANING

Every bracelet comes with an organic cotton pouch for safe storage when not in use. Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause crystals to fade over time. Keep your bracelet out of reach of children and pets, as they can easily snap the elastic.

Use a soft cloth (like microfiber) to wipe off oils, dust, or dirt. Avoid soap or harsh chemicals, and just use a damp cloth if needed. Allow your crystal bracelet to dry before wearing it again.

REMOVE BEFORE ROUGH ACTIVITIES

Avoid getting your bracelet caught on things by removing it before doing activities like playing with kids or dogs, yard work, exercise, etc. You can also wear them on your non-dominant hand to reduce chances of getting caught and snapping.

GENTLE HANDLING

The elastic can snap if handled roughly. Gently roll your bracelet over your hand when putting it on or taking it off, and avoid pulling or stretching too hard.
