Agni Manitite (Pearl of Fire)
Agni Manitite is a rare and relatively obscure tektite—a type of natural glass formed from terrestrial debris ejected during meteorite impacts. The name "Agni Manitite" is derived from Sanskrit, and it is sometimes referred to as the "Pearl of Divine Fire" due to its metaphysical associations. This tektite is known for its dark, almost black appearance with a glassy, textured surface, and it is highly sought after by collectors and spiritual practitioners for its unique properties.
Agni Manitite is found in very limited quantities, and its exact locality is somewhat mysterious, contributing to its allure. Most known specimens come from Indonesia, particularly from the ocean surrounding the islands of Java and Sumatra. The specific impact site that produced Agni Manitite is not well-documented, adding an element of intrigue to this unique stone.
The name "Agni Manitite" is deeply rooted in Sanskrit, where "Agni" means "fire" and "Manitite" is derived from "Mani," meaning "pearl" or "jewel." Together, the name can be translated as the "Pearl of Fire" or "Fire Pearl." This name reflects the stone's intense energy and its origin from a fiery meteorite impact, which is believed to imbue it with powerful metaphysical properties.
Agni Manitite is a stone of power and is said to increase willpower, creativity and manifestation. Agni Manitite is extremely healing with the Solar Plexus Chakra and an energizing stone that will raise your vibration. Agni Manitite are described as having fire or dragon-like energy. They pair well with other tektites.
