| About the Stone |
Chiastolite is a rare form of Andalusite, a silica material composed of Sillimanite and Kyanite. Chiastolite has a cross like pattern dissecting the stone. This Chiastolite cross formation is comprised of graphite and carbon.
This stone has been revered by many cultures over the centuries as a stone of protection and as a tool with which to connect in to the earth and universal life force energy.
In China, this stone was placed at the center of the home. It was believed that doing so would fuse chi, or life force energy, and radiate it outwards.
The cross itself represents the 4 cardinal directions, and this stone is strongly associate with the root chakra.
Chiastolite is often used as a talisman for protection. It is worn, carried on the person, or placed in a room or space. This stone creates a protective boundary, helping to warn off negative or unwanted energy.
This stone is also strongly tied to earth energy. Chiastolite assists us by connecting into the earth, to what is real and present. In doing so we are able to tap into the present moment, which creates space for us to let go of unwanted thoughts, fear, anxiety. When our connection to the earth is strong, we’re better equipped release negative, stuck, or unwanted energy back into the earth, where it can be repurposed into something new and beneficial. In doing so, we’re able to stay more firmly rooted in the present with greater clarity. When we’re focused on the present, we’re able to access our truest self’s, and able to move through the world with greater ease, in alignment with our greatest and highest good.
Approximate Sizes: range from 0.8” to 1.25”.

Ethical Commitment - Part I
Unfortunately mining crystals is not regulated in most places, which makes ensuring stones are sourced ethically quite difficult at times.
We believe wholeheartedly that these stones have the power to foster great healing, and it is with love and reverence for Mother Earth, each other, and all things that we offer these products.
We work hard to do our due-diligence. We ask questions about the origin of the pieces, and do not purchase from mines/areas that are known for having unfair practices.
Sometimes we are at the mercy of the vendor regarding this information. See our FAQ, “Ethical Stone Information - Part II” for details regarding the steps we take before we’re comfortable listing these offerings.
Ethical Commitment - Part II
Certain areas/mines have no regulations in place to protect the environment, ensure staff is age appropriate, receives fair pay, treatment & benefits & has adequate PPE. We will not purchase from these locations & we work hard to determine each piece’s origin.
When not possible, we must rely on our vendors. We’ve invested time, money & effort into building relationships & trust. We also always trust our gut - If we’re not comfortable, we will not purchase. We continue to educate ourselves & on the rare occasion we learn later that a piece was mined unethically, we will pull it.
Though ethically sourced often = higher cost, we believe strongly in these values. We strive to offer pieces accessible to all, with great love & deep gratitude.
Why is Everything Priced as a Whole Number?
There is a short and a less than short answer here.
Short answer - I’ve never been able to get behind the whole psychology of “charging $9.99 will look like a better deal than $10 & will increase your sales.” This feels almost dishonest for me, personally, & it’s not a practice I am comfortable with simply for the sake of it.
The less than short answer is that I have always loved whole numbers, particularly the number 0. “0” is often referred to as the void & is considered the space of nothingness. While this isn’t untrue, from nothingness comes the infinite possibility of everything. The void is the beginning of creation, the sacred pause. The end & the beginning.
The number “0” has always felt like magic in tangible form to me.

The Slendor of Spirit is my favorite crystal shop! My items arrive carefully packaged with lovely handwritten notes and a wonderful gift. Her item descriptions are quite beautifully descriptive. We have become friends over the 3,000 miles between us. I look forward to shopping and finding more crystals from her. When I am looking for a specific stone, I check her site first. I can't say enough good things about this shop. It's my favorite and first choice! I am so very grateful for my first find and multiple orders from Lisa. 🙏 💖
