HISTORICAL OVERVIEW
Tektites are natural glass objects formed when meteorites strike Earth, melting terrestrial rock and ejecting it into the atmosphere where it cools rapidly. Their name comes from the Greek tektos meaning “melted.” Moldavite, a green tektite from the Czech Republic, has been used in jewelry and spiritual practices for centuries. In metaphysical traditions, tektites are considered stones of transformation, cosmic connection, and spiritual expansion, helping one release limitations and embrace higher awareness.
