Where Does Yellow Septarian Come From?

Yellow Septarian can be found in locations worldwide such as the USA and Africa.

Our Yellow Septarian Crystals, including this piece, are crystals from Madagascar, a country renowned for its high-quality Septarian specimens. 

Madagascar is an island off the coast of Africa known for its unparalleled riches of fossils and crystals. 

What Is Yellow Septarian Made Of? 

Yellow Septarian is a rock composed from various minerals including Yellow Calcite, brown aragonite, grey limestone, chalcedony, and white baryte.

Yellow Septarian originated as a fossilised mud ball, which over millions of years underwent cycles of cracking and drying out, allowing Yellow Calcite to leak into the cracks to form its distinctive banded patterns. 

How Does Yellow Septarian Form?

• 50 to 70 million years ago, during the Cretaceous period, many forms of life were abundant in the high seas

• Over time, volcanic eruptions created sediment on the sea bed and killed these sea creatures

• As the sea creatures decomposed on the sea bed, the decomposition of their remains released colourful minerals which accumulated in the sediment and were then encased in rock

• The accumulation of minerals and sedimentation on the seabed led to the creation of nodules, or fossilised mud balls

• Eventually, the sea levels lowered and receded, exposing this mineral-rich sediment and nodules to the air, which meant the sediment dried out, causing the rock to shrink and then crack open

• The cracks in the rock were filled with even more colourful minerals such as Yellow Calcite, which formed concretions: sometimes, the minerals crystallised and formed druzy crystals

• This rock, rich in various minerals, was named Septeyre or Septarian in reference to the word 'septum', which means 'cracks, partitions, or walls'.

Yellow Septarian Chakras

Yellow Septarian resonates strongly with both the Root Chakra and Solar Plexus Chakra. 

Yellow Septarian: Root Chakra Stone

Yellow Septarian most potently connects to the Root Chakra due to its connection to the Earth element as a fossil born from the Earth. 

This means that Yellow Septarian is an incredibly grounding Root Chakra Stone, and offers its user protection and security during times of unease and change. 

Yellow Septarian: Solar Plexus Chakra Stone

Yellow Septarian also resonates with the Solar Plexus Chakra due to Yellow Calcite making up a large proportion of the rock. 

Alongside the ancient wisdom offered by this fossilised stone, Yellow Septarian can be used as a Solar Plexus Chakra Stone to improve intellect and enhance mental clarity.

How Hard Is Yellow Septarian?

Yellow Septarian measures 3.5 to 4 on the Mohs Scale of Mineral Hardness, which means that it is a delicate, soft mineral that will scratch easily if struck by or against harder minerals such as Quartz. 

Great care should be taken not to damage the crystal surface by handling the stone gently and keeping it away from other stones.
