Moss Agate: The Stone of New Beginnings

Moss agate is a semi-precious gemstone that is part of the chalcedony family. It gets its name from its moss-like inclusions of green hornblende, which can resemble trees or foliage. Though it is not a true agate, moss agate is often called the "gardener's stone" because of its connection to nature.

Moss agate is found in a variety of locations around the world, including Brazil, India, Russia, and the United States. It is usually cut into cabochons or beads and used in jewelry or other decorative objects. The stone can also be tumbled into smooth pebbles or chips for use in mosaics or as part of an ornamental display.

Moss agate is said to be a stone of new beginnings. It is associated with growth and abundance, making it a perfect talisman for gardeners or anyone who is starting a new project. The stone is also believed to have healing properties, particularly when it comes to easing stress and anxiety.
